Yes, I agree and, my feelings exactly. Therefore, if that's all there is with the desire for FRS, then all you have to do is add object selection on left-click anywhere in the row for non-FRS. Right-click events are already being check, so adding left-click should be minimal implementation. Assuming there isn't something else in FRS, it, could be eliminated and result in having everyone get what they want. No trying to make features exist in both environments. Less maintenance and overhead equals more time for other goodies. I'm waiting to hear something else in FRS that is used beyond full row selection that isn't in non-FRS. Again, assuming that's all there is with the desire for FRS we need to get Don on board.

Could you explain the difference between FRS and "object selection on left-click anywhere in the row for non-FRS"?

FRS is everything that FRS does, whatever that is beyond non-FRS, apparently from the feedback that is only full row selection. The other is selection of an object (aka, folder or file).

The difference would be absolutely nothing from a functional perspective. In fact you would gain as you would have full row selection plus whatever non-FRS has in addition. The one thing I would not implement or I'm not suggesting in any way whatsoever, is the dark blue full row selection bar -- that would not be implemented, there is no reason to do so and it would irritate non-FRS people. There's absolutely no reason why non-FRS can't select a folder or file by clicking in it's associated row space. I don't see why this would be an issue for mouse lasso selection either. Therefore, nothing lost and everything gained. One less level of complexity.

the tags and comment columns work as expected.

tested on a fresh install of xy v10.80.0302

Fixed, thanks.
