<get Dimensions> behaves not perfectly with |s| modifier

Not sure if it's a bug but FYI |s|<get Dimensions> doesn't work the way I expect.
It shows the dimensions for the focused file even if it's currently not selected

Unlike what I used previously (and ended up continuing to use because of this), i.e.

Code: Select all

|s|<prop #image.dimensions '               [*]'><prop System.Video.FrameWidth '               [*'> <prop System.Video.FrameHeight 'x *]'>
Which only shows the dimension for the focused item when it's currently selected.

BTW this "safety mechanism" for spaces is extremely annoying! In order to have 4 spaces I have to put don't even know how many in my template which looks ugly and it's just 1/3 of it here. Can you get rid of it completely or at least introduce some modifier (|u| for "unsafe") to disable it for those who are willing to take their chances managing spaces on their own?

PS
And one more thing, when I click on the file, the Status Bar sometimes, before applying the template, for some dozens or hundreds of milliseconds shows the file name

Next beta should be a bit better.

Actually, there is a simpler solution: just don't apply this "space reduction" mechanism to the first 4 (n) spaces in a row.

Well, I never really liked it anyway. That's the kind of patronizing smartness I usually loathe.
