I am always launching the Floating Preview window on an image file in order to then rename the parent folder based on information I see in the image. But I have to switch back to the list to do this once the FP window comes up. This is very cumbersome to have to do all the time, even with a keyboard shortcut. The only time I need focus in the FP window itself is to zoom or resize but that's a far less frequent use case.
Is there any option or tweak to keep focus in the list when launching Floating Preview? If not, then this is a strongly desired feature request.
