Focus list after entering/selecting folder in address bar
Is there an option to to do this automatically, without having to press Tab?

Re: Focus list after entering/selecting folder in address ba
If not, can it be fixed to do this by default? In Windows Explorer, typing/selecting a folder in the address bar and pressing Enter sends focus to the file list pane. In XYPlorer, focus remains in the address bar and you have to press Tab to get to the list pane. Thanks.

For entered files / folders -> Makes sense to me
For just selecting them -> Not

Re: Focus list after entering/selecting folder in address bar
Indeed in Explorer when you <ENTER> in the address bar the focus ends up in the list. I could optionally do that for XY. Not sure about selecting a folder from the address bar dropdown... opinions anybody...?
PS: I added it (next beta, v18.00.0004), play with it and see what you think of it.

Hello!
Since I have not found any feedback here - I want to give feedback: I have seen that this is not the default behaviour so I feared that it could be thrown away some time if there is no positive feedback. So here: Positive feedback! Please do not remove this!
Thank you for the implementation
For those who came here from Google: You can activate this feature in your configuration file. Open the configuration file, close XYplorer, in the file look for SetFocusTo= and write "7" or "15" to the corresponding line.
