SC get lengthsselected can have no return

I have had intermittent problems with the return from SC get lengthsselected occasionally being blank, I think going back to its inception, my theory was that it happened after I had had the Length column in the list visible and removed it, which then made it not work correctly for a while (until tab switch, loc change etc.), although if I understand correctly, unless I use bitfield 2 I should always get a return from lengthsselected. (especially in the case of the Shell column)

Anyway using the new skip custom columns function I have been able to create a repro which I think demos something similar to what I was experiencing earlier, so possibly it's resolvable.

for fresh:

Code: Select all

  goto "*?/types={:Audio};{:Video} /l=10 /f";
  sel f;
  e <get lengthsselected>, "OK RETURN";
  setcolumns("Name, :s-audio.length");
  #548;  // skip custom columns
  e <get lengthsselected>, "NO RETURN";
I am using the special property in the above example for ease, but I originally noticed it when using the shell property+column.
