Files are selected when using Drag&Drop

Hello, maybe someone can help me.

Fresh Installation 13.1,
"Configuration->Explorer Panel Settings->Mouse Configurations->Left mouse button->Click and hold = No Action".
Also tested whith all mouse buttons set to "No Action" in configuration.
No Special Mouse Hardware/Driver/Settings.


Now whenever i drag an unselected single file with "Left Click and hold" to another Explorer Panel (or external program)
the dragged file is left marked as "selected". So i have to deselect it first before i could drag&drop the next single file.


Intended behaviour or bug? Maybe i missed another configuration setting?

There is "Configuration->Explorer Panel Settings->Display->Selection and Checking of items->Unselect files
and folders when Copy Operation start", but it only works when starting copy/move with F5,F6.
Is this behaviour possible when dragging with the mouse?

Mathias (Author):
not sure what you want.

so don't want files to be selected when you drag them ?

Sorry, maybe i have not give a good description of my problem, but English is not my native language.

Example: I have a folder with files shown in Multi Commander, now i want to left click and hold (Drag&Drop)
a single file to an external program. Drag&Drop works, but now the dragged file is "marked/selected" in
Multi Commander. When i then want to left click and hold (Drag&Drop) the next file it "delivers" 2 files,
the clicked one and the first one. After that the second file is also marked/selected and so on.

So i have to constantly deselect a dragged file in Multi Commander. And as it is always a single file a
marking/selection is not needed.

So i don't want a file marked/selected (for future operations in Multi Commander) after Drag&Drop a file outside of Multi Commander.

leftryght:
Configuration - Explorer Panel Settings - Display - Selection and Checking of items，check "Unselect files and folders when Copy Operation start".

This setting works only when you work with the file in MC (F5,F6 or drag a file within MC),
it does not work when dragging a file OUTSIDE of MC to an external program.

For that reason i wrote that i have
"Configuration->Explorer Panel Settings->Mouse Configurations->Left mouse button->Click and hold = No Action".
If i had set this to "Toogle Selection", then i would understand this behaviour, but MC marks the file also
when set to "No Action" as soon as you leave the Explorer Panel with the mouse.
