list panel: ctrl-doubleclick and focus

Post by CyGho »

In the file panel, if a folder allready is selected, using ctrl-doubleclick won't open the folder. It will only switch focus off/on, while Windows explorer leaves it off in at ctrl-doubleclick.
Makes it inconvenient trying to open a folder in the same locked tab, because i have to click beside the folder now to lose focus. After that it works ok. ctrl-singleclick + ctrl-doubleclick to open is also a workaround.
Software: should we be aware because it's soft ? I like to think not !

That has to stay as it is. It's in a way logical that you get conflicting behavior/method patterns with so many mouse and keyboard tricks. As long as no bug emerges, it's ok.
Your "workaround" is actually the correct way to walk here. Unselect, then ctrl+dblclick.

It's no big problem. Besides, it better to have so many tricks, after getting used to them it's feeling so "naked" when i go back to Windows explorer, witch i don't do very often anymore :)
