Highlight Focused Item only w/o Selection?

Post by Filehero »

Hi,

as mentioned over here over here I had switched off Highlight Focused Item for a longer time. When reactivating it yesterday, I seem to remember why I had put it off. It's because of colour gallore resulting from having Highlight Selected Rows on as well.

Otherwise it indeed would be very helpful too see where my key-based navigation would start/continue from when there is no selection in the currently unfocused list.
So: is there already a tweak to highlight the focused item only when there's no list selection?

Cheers,
Filehero

/e: fixed typo in title

No such tweak.

IMO the focus highlight is still useful in case of multiple selections.

That's true (why do I need others to tell me the obvious? :bug: ).

I will try an unobtrusive colour next.

Thanks for feedback.
