Tree Panel Jump to Explorer Panel
« on: February 25, 2017, 00:13:35 »
All -

When I am in the tree panel and I down arrow (or up arrow) to different folders, the Explorer panel does not update to show the contents of wherever I am in the Tree. 

If I hit Enter while I am in the Tree, instead of just showing the contents of the tree folder in the Explorer Panel, the focus jumps to the Explorer panel.  Is there any setting that would make it like Windows Explorer, so that hitting Enter while in the Tree does not change focus to the Explorer Panel?  Thank you!

I think that function only works with the mouse.

Maybe custom hot-key would do it?

Currently that is not supported.
And it was because if you navigate up using arrow it will reload the list panel every time you got to a new folder and it made everything weird.
For that to work well it must be some delay. that it only do it after you been standing on the folder without doing anything for 0.5s or less or something.

I got that on my todo list. But I don't know when that option can be added

A bad workaround for now is
You can press Alt + Num / to toggle focus between list part and tree. so after you pressed return you can get back to the tree without using mouse.
(It is possible to customize that key )
