In effect, your change applies a 'focus grab' to a refreshed treeview that doesn't have any selected item. But it also prevents such a treeview from scrolling to its position prior to the refresh. So this might be a better cure for the symptoms: if (selected_names == NULL) + { + gtk_widget_grab_focus (view->treeview); return TRUE; + } As it happens, that functionality has been under review, in pursuit of faster and threaded filelist refreshing. Maybe that's why I haven't seen the problem for a while.
