List selected row color stays on when focus leaves XYplorer

Post by Jerry »

In most applications I use, the selected row color changes to some inactive color when you switch focus to another window. But this does not happen with the List's selected row color in XYplorer. Consequently, I'm often gettiing miscued into thinking I can start typing into my XYplorer window when in fact I can't. Can this be remedied? I know Windows Explorer has the same behavior, but that's not a good reason to keep it! Note that the list selection row color does change to an inactive color when you switch focus to the XYplorer tree pane. Can't this also be done when you switch focus to another window?

Good point! Not totally easy to do though. I try something in the next beta.
