2. Commander styled setup is best if you working with keyboard only.. then you can walk the list with arrow keys and toggle selection of files using space or insert key.
Ctrl + Space ? never seen that combo before..  not sure you can get it using Explorer Styled setup
In Explorer Panel settings you can uncheck the options under "Selection Methods" But that will probably mess with with setup you want to have..

* I meant I cannot get the size of all selected folders by Space. That's not a big problem, actually, don't matter.
* Yes. Try in WinExplorer or any type of standard listview: when you toggle Ctrl, the multi-selection mode is activated, so if you press Space - the focused element will be toggled selected/unselected, if you press any arrow, another element will be focused and you can make it selected/unselected with space. It's common practice in most listviews. I like the tabbed style interface with some plugins, but total/Multi/Other commander file selection style isn't what I really want. That's why I choose Multicommander yet :) Is there some way to make it possible? Maybe some hotkeys use Ctrl+Up/Down?

1. Ahh ok. No space only works for current folder.. hmm Might be possible to remove the hotkey for that and reassign it to the 'calculate folder size' command

2. Not sure it will be possible to include 'sticky selection' in WindowsExplorer mode. Commander Styled setup has priority and if it breaks something with that it will not be added. also when changing how one mode works something in the other mode can break, or something else in the same mode breaks.
There are so many options and settings for how mouse/keyboard work so when messing with how it works, something is going to break :)
But if I find a safe way to add it, I will..

Kreator:
Thanks for reply.
Hope you will make it some day :) For now, I'm gonna use mouse for selecting several elements.
