selected files

[glusberg]

If I select a group of folders, then tell XY to move them elsewhere and it finds there is an existing file with the same name on the destination, I can tell it to skip that file.
It used to be that when that process finishes, I would end up with a group of files that remained selected.
I noticed in the last few versions (sorry, I am not sure when) those files do NOT remain selected.
Is this a setting I screwed up? I found the "old" behavior very helpful.

You mean the group of files that were not moved?

[glusberg]

Yes. I use to be able to treat them as a group (move, delete, whatever) but now they are no longer selected after.

[admin]

Yes, good find. Fixed in next beta.

[glusberg]

You (and it) are wonderful!
And the fix (of course) works!
Thank you!

[glusberg]

This is happening again (the last few versions...). Is it fixable again?

[admin]

Confirmed, probably. I'm not aware of any changes that could have caused this.

1) What is your setting here: Configuration | General | Refresh, Icons, History | Auto-Refresh | Refresh during file operations
2) You don't know by chance with which version it started?

1)

2) I am sorry, I do not.

[admin]

And "Refresh during file operations" was always ticked, also when it still worked as you wish?

[glusberg]

I believe so. No changes here as far as I know.

[admin]

ATM I cannot see what causes it. Unticking "Refresh during file operations" will solve your issue. Why not just do it?

[glusberg]

makes sense!

Tested it now with v23.90.0407 - 2023-01-07 20:12 (just a random pick) and this works just like today's version. So I don't know what you mean by "the last few versions..." but nothing changed here since 2023-01-07. The fix was on 2022-11-20.
