Keep focused item in view after resorting

If checked then the focused item stays in view (if possible) after the list is resorted. And not only in view, but -- again: if possible -- exactly in the same place in the view port. So your eyes don't have to go on a trip looking for it.

This setting is ignored if there are no selections in the list. In that case what happens after sorting is controlled by Scroll to top after resorting following here below.

Tip If the setting is unticked you still can enforce it by holding CTRL while clicking the column header. This will even keep the focused item in view when it is not selected, so CTRL gives you even a little more power than the config setting.

I don't understand, what the manual states with the CTRL key ?

Scroll to top after resorting

If checked the list is auto-scrolled to top when you change the sort order. Additionally, if there are no selections in the list, the focus is auto-shifted to the top item. Note that the option is honored only when no current item is kept in view due to an enabled Keep focused item in view after resorting (in other words, the latter setting takes precedence).

I don't understand, what is meant in the documentation ?

Can anyone or the Administrator answer my question ?

"Keep focused item in view after resorting" means:
For example: You are in a folder with 200 items, you currently select item "7 days" which stand around the top of the list, then you click the "Name" column to sort in reverse order. This make "7 days" goes to bottom of list. If you enable this setting, the List auto scroll to bottom to make "7 days" in view. If you do not enable this setting, you can hold Ctrl and click "Name" column to achieve the same result.


"Scroll to top after resorting":
For example: You are currently sort by Name AND scrolled the List to bottom, then if you click "Size" column to sort by size, the List will auto scroll to Top
