I have several Dolphin windows, some with split panes, taking up a

not possible to have the entire set in view at once, either because
they're scrolled out of sight or because one window is overlapping
another.
If I want to drag and drop a file from one pane to a specific position
in another (such as to a closed folder in the target pane), they have
to both be visible before I start. IOW after grabbing the file with the
left button (and keeping the button depressed) the target pane will not
pop to the top of the window stack so I can point at the destination
folder, and if the folder happens to be visible it won't open so I can
walk down the tree. This is less functional than other systems
(Windows, MacOS and no doubt other Linux file browsers).
Is there a way to configure Dolphin to get the desired behaviour? I
know I can use right-click copy and paste but that's not what I'm
asking.
Hi,
I can hoover over tree folder list in places section in dolphin window and it
opens closed folders and scrolls up and down when holding a file to move.
Can't do the same over main folder view.
