Cut n paste oddity

I've found an interesting cut n paste thing. Note that I have View->List Style->Full row select and View->List Style->Highlight focused row turned on.

1. Cut file A from folder A in tab A.
2. Switch to tab B which is targeted on folder B. Folder B has (in this case) 2 files within it. The top file is highlighted but not selected.
3. Right-click->Paste Special->Paste (Move). File A is moved into position (in this case to the top of list as autosort is turned on) and selected. The previous top file is still highlighted.
4. Press down arrow and now I have 2 files selected (the newly moved file and the last in the list) when I expected only one (the 2nd in the list).

Cheers
JohnM

Ah, another "sticky selection" bug (see p=4615#4615). Well spotted, thanks! This one was connected to the new select-on-paste.

BTW, I'm surprised that nobody asked to make select-on-paste optional. So there's unconditional love for this feature dans tout le monde?

Well, unfortunately I can't really "use" it cause it doesn't work with SuperCopier (which handle my copy/move operations, /me hopes they'll fix this asap!) :cry: but Im sure there is unconditional love for it, hell even I love it! ;) 8)
