+ icon dissappears and doesn't come back

[Samvdg]

I don't really see a way to get the little '+' in a circle to reappear after i clicked on something other then clicking on the main folder again or on a different folder and back. I assume that on mobile, you can de-select the currently selected image but on desktop this does not seem to be possible.

Is it possible to keep the '+' on screen at all times on desktop? I don't want to have to make my own designs for what seems to be a slight design oversight

Agreed. The previous design seems a little confusing.

I come up with these UX improvements:

1. The floating action button "+" should always appear, no matter how many items are selected.
2. Add a clear action "cancel selection" in the action bar.
3. Allow de-selecting by clicking the selected item again or clicking on empty background.

Any thoughts?

It doesn't seem like keeping the floating action button on screen at all times causes any issues with selecting or clicking anything and that seems the most simple so i would be very happy if you could implement that :D

I will implement all of the three. Any other suggestion is also welcome.
