MUSD (Mouse Up Show Down)

[jupe]

I am also appreciative of you bringing this to the tree, personally I think I will use it in the tree more than the list, I have one question though, is it possible to make middle click mimic Ctrl+Shift+Click, ie. goto in a new tab?

Slightly OT: Is it possible to make the address bar drop down scroll with the mouse wheel like the MUSD popup?

You mean mimic Ctrl+Shift+Click for files, and/or mimic Shift+Click for folders?

Slightly OT: Is it possible to make the address bar drop down scroll with the mouse wheel like the MUSD popup?

So this does not work for you? It should work...

1) Yes, goto files & folders in new tab upon mouse middle click would be useful IMO.

2) No never has in the address bar drop down for me (everywhere else is ok AFAICT), not in fresh either.

[admin]

I assume it also does not work then in the dropdowns of Name and Location in Info Panel / Find Files / Name and Location?

[jupe]

Correct, it doesn't. I had never noticed that because I do all my searching via the address bar or F3, but I just then artificially added entries via List management to test.

edit: QS drop down no scroll either, I heavily use the AB so that is where I notice it being the most inconvenient, but it looks more widespread now I am testing, I now assume everywhere that control is used.

[admin]

It works here (for many years), and nobody ever complained.

Anybody out there has the same issue?

Alright, I added some air code (too lazy to reset my mouse)... tell me how it works in the next beta...

Re.: In tree:

Let us suppose you are in a certain directory. The tree is active and you see the subdirectories in the tree as usual (expanded sublevel). Now right click on the icon of another directory, which is parallel to the initial one -> the MUSD pop up shows up. Now end this with ESC. I think that at this time (actually before that, when right clicking the icon) the directory just viewed with MUSD is selected, while TPT still ends at the one whose contents still shows up in the list. Shouldn't that one still be the selected one?

In other words, clicking for MUSD on an icon in tree selects (only in tree!) the folder of MUSD-interest. I feel that this is confusing (tree-list-address bar discrepancy).

(My tree is AutoOptimizeTreeRadical=1, but I do not think that this plays any role in this.)

[admin]

Yep, that's a bug. On ESC the temporary selection should go back to the current folder.

It might be your mouse. Which are you using? Logitech often meant trouble in the past...

[jupe]

I thought that too when you said it works for you, but it's actually a Microsoft Wired 600 mouse, I'll look around for an old mouse to test though.

Not sure if it is relevant but another thing I noticed is that everywhere else XY uses scrollbars (that mouse scroll works for me) I can right click them and it has the options Scroll Here | Page Up etc, but not in the address bar style drop down, does yours?

[admin]

Same here: No Scroll Here | Page Up etc on that scrollbar. Interesting...

Added some debug code to the wheel. Next beta when you wheel over that dropdown list you should see something like this in the debug log:

Code: Select all

2018-09-28 10:27:12.447 >> Wheel Delta: 1

To show the debug log, use this script:

Code: Select all

dlog;

MUSD middle click works great

dlog = empty

I couldn't find another mouse to test yet, but anyway never mind it looks like it is only me that encounters this anyway, I've lived with it this long, so no worries, thanks for trying.

Might even add it to HoverBox (just showing the beginning of the list, not clicking).

Almost done. Killer!

I'm currently rethinking my decision to show all files in the MUSD (and soon Hover Box) regardless of any "hidden" settings. I now think it should be just the same as the normal list: What's hidden in the list is hidden in the MUSD. And additionally, when all items are hidden, it should not say "Empty" (that would be misleading), but rather "All items hidden", or with the count: "3 items hidden". What do you think?
