the cursor could follow the mouse (new settings)

[h0w4rd]

I open directories and files with a single click, I'm used to it very much.
Sometimes I need to mark one file or directory and do some operation with it, since I open files with a single click, I'm not albe to move the cursor to the file with a mouse in Multi Commander, I have to use up and down keys.

I would like the cursor to follow the mouse cursor - it works in Total Commander, if you check the settings 'Open files and directories with a single click'. Please see attached image.

BTW If I may ask a subquestion - how can I set the different background color for even and odd rows?

Configuration > Explorer Panel Settings > Colors
Check Override standart Windows background, Alternating Background color. Then choose desired colors.

Don't understand why some whats single click. Don't you accidental starts file or goes into folder ? Nevermind. 

So you want an option to that will make it automatically change what file item that is in focus to the file item that you hover above.?

I have no problem with accidentally started files, because I click only when I want to start the file.

And yes, I would like to have that option.

In the latest beta (build1196) you now have an option to "Auto select file/folder when hovering over it" (Explorer Panel settings , Mouse tab)

Is it normal that hint (popup tooltip) is not displayed for this option? I think it should.

Ahh Yes, The wrong version of the settings layout file got into the beta. But it is fixed. So in the release version it will show the tooltip

I've tried latest build 1200 and it doesn't work.

EDIT: I'm sorry, actually it works, I didn't noticed it before because of the delay between hovering over an item and autoselecting it.
I think it would be better if items were autoselected instantly after hovering over them, but I know that somebody else would prefer the delay   so could you please add an option to select the delay (instanty, 0.25 sec, 0.5 sec, 1 sec, ...)?
