After moving a file from one directory to another, I regularly see visual bugs.
It's not a big issue, but it is confusing.
1. Files are shown twice instead of once
2. Directories and files from the other side (split) are shown in the list
It's not a big issue (pressing F5 fixes it).

Re: Incorrect display after moving a file from split
What?! I have never seen anything like this. Can you give steps to reproduce it?

Re: Incorrect display after moving a file from split
It's only a visual bug, so it's not a big issue. F5 on both sides fixes the problem.
1. Split the tab
2. Cut a file from one side
3. Paste the file to the other side
4. Display is a mess
Example 1
After pasting, both sides are completely wrong.
1. At 0:04, the left side contains every file twice
2. At 0:05, the right side is missing all its entries (only 1 directory is shown)
Example 2
After pasting, both sides are completely wrong
1. At 0:06, the right side contains every file twice
2. At 0:10, the left side also becomes all messed up

Re: Incorrect display after moving a file from split
Cannot reproduce, but a lot of relevant information is missing. Can you give steps for a fresh instance?

Re: Incorrect display after moving a file from split
I don't know what a 'fresh instance' is.
I regularly move files, and it happens about one in ten times or so.
You see what I do. There are no 'magic' steps. I literally showed in the video that I move a file, and then sometimes the display goes haywire.
Maybe it has to do with these two custom columns I always use:

Re: Incorrect display after moving a file from split
Ah, that's what I thought. Relevant things are happening in the background. You use scripted columns that run a deep process for each listed folder. You also use background copy threads.
A first question would be: Why are you scripting folder sizes when you could just turn them on from the GUI?

Re: Incorrect display after moving a file from split
Because the default one doesn't work (at least, they didn't used to when I looked at it years ago).
Are you saying I can get the split columns by other means?
I want to keep the file and directory count separate because I want to be able to sort on them.
Please tell me how I can set it up 'natively'. Currently, the calculations are quite slow. So, if a 'native' way is faster with the same result, that would be great!
Also, the calculations of the scripts are not done in the background, so I always have to wait for them. If they couldn't run in the background and just show me the result when ready, it would be MUCH faster.

Re: Incorrect display after moving a file from split
1) What kind of sorting are you looking for that cannot be achieved with a single Size column?
2) With the Size column you can use folder size caching.

Re: Incorrect display after moving a file from split
Which column do I need to use to count the amount of directories and files in a directory?
I tried the 'File count' column, but it doesn't do anything:

Re: Incorrect display after moving a file from split
File count is some shell property, I would have to google it to find out what it's supposed to do.
So you're after the file count. Okay, in that case you have to use Custom Columns indeed.
