Multi Commander 6.4.x Issues
Ulfhednar:
Just grabbed 6.4.3 b2232 (w7 x64)
I find that if I delete a folder the hi-lite bar jumps to the top of the window ".."rather than the old behaviour of going to the next item shown. Bit annoying to be scrolling around when you have more than 50 folders :P
I noticed the d/l was very slow - serverside issue? Or just overloaded? Took 3 tries over about 40 minutes to eventually get the file. Took more than 10mins to actually transfer. Unusual! .....Sorry, but I was desperate to see the latest build!! ;)
Thanks Mathias.

I've found something else that is possibly related.
On selecting a file & opening rename the focus hi-lite can also jump to ".." sometimes.
This causes the rename dialog to open without any files being present in it. ???

Hi Ulf.
I just spotted that myself. Annoying, isn't it?
And yes, the whole of multicommander.com is very slow...

Crap. Ok I found an issue where CreateFolder caused issues with refresh and focus, that why the release today..(6.4.3)
Look like that fixed messed up delete then.
I think I know why it is happening. I will try to fix it ASAP. (So new release again.. AHH my server is burning up)
The problem is that FileSystem Scanning is happening in the background, it it will trigger rescan when the filesystem is changed.
Like when the program do
DeleteFile
SetFocusToFileX
Right after the call to DeleteFile the filesystem is changed and MC will notice and a rescan can be trigged.
And a view that is rescanning will try to keep it current item as focus.
So when SetFocusToFileX is called the scan have already start and when it tries to return focus (that was the delete file) it failed and it ends up being the first item.

Yes.. I release 6.4.2 yesterday ,and then 6.4.3 today. So my Internet connection on my server is a bit overloaded. :) ( 76GB bandwidth today )
( If anybody how how to tweak apache lets me know.. I done some tweaking but did not think it helped )
And then maybe release 6.4.4 later today maybe hmm But maybe only release it to beta first.. since it is only an annoying issue with wrong focus it is not super important to push out to all today

Not sure if it is the related.
How to you shift-F6 or context menu, slow click. ?
Is the filesystem changed during the rename ?
Wait rename dialog ? not inline rename ?

There been to many of this minor issues with 6.4.x
It been like a "whack a mole" game. I fix one issue and two more popus
Everything is more parallel now, And that is great and a lot better in many way. But some of the exiting functions freaked out because they relied on that only 1 thing at the time happened.
I'm just annoyed that I did not found them during beat testing.. To few people are testing the beta version I think. OR people to do report when they see issues.
(And releasing new final version in the morning is a BAD idea.. better to do it late at night so the load of updates are spread out more.. I learned that.. )
But a 6.4.4 BETA is coming soon, I think i fixed the delete, move focus to next issue.
