Focus line scrolling

[andreyo]

Hi All,

Is it possible to enable scrolling of the focus line in File Panels, not just of the view (for long lists)?

Best,
Andrey

@Mathias,

I'm not sure, but can suppose... When you focus a file on the top (or bottom) of the list, then scroll up/down the list with the mouse, the focus is now outside current view. Then if you press e.g. up/down, current view scrolls back to the focus position. Maybe andreyo would like that focus position follow current view.

Thanks for the reply. To clarify, by "scrolling the focus line," I mean coupling the mouse scroll to the selection cursor.

Currently, when I scroll with the mouse wheel, only the View moves (the viewport scrolls up/down), but the Focus Line (the currently selected file) stays behind on the original file. This means if I scroll down a long list and press "Enter," I am still opening the file at the top, not the one I am currently looking at.

I was wondering whether it is possible to enable behavior where using the mouse wheel moves the Focus/Selection bar up and down the list, keeping it within the visible view.

ok like Mouse wheel would have the same effect as pressing Arrow Up / down keys (  and move the current focus line up / down )

Well that is currently now supported. Never even seen anything that works like that. Then you can't scroll fast up and down without changing the focus.
I add a note about it.
