Support and Feedback / color

« Last post by JeanneMarie on Yesterday at 22:29:45 »

I'd  like to be able to apply color to certain files on an ad hoc basis, not according to any logic, just what I need to highlight for myself for a while. For example, with dozens of PDF files in a directory, which are the ones I found most useful for the current project? Can do? It can be font color or background color or really anything that helps certain file names stand out. Any kind of tagging.

I'm using version 15.8 (64 bit), build 3135 and using Commander Style Look & Feel.

Many thanks for any tips.

It still works.

Sure you are not running with "Allow only one instance" enabled ?

I found an old threat that said for a caption you can add to multicommander.exe "-T=<any text>" but it does not see work anymore.
Would like this feature.
Thanks.

When a tab session is loaded, no focus is set. If you use the Tab key to switch between the panels, the address bar is no longer highlighted, making keyboard-only navigation impossible. Only a mouse click resolves the issue.

This happens with all tab sessions in which more than one tab is saved per panel. The issue does not occur with tab sessions that contain only one tab per panel.

You can press Alt+D to focus on the Command Bar. Also sometimes when focus is lost in the Explorer Panel, pressing Home key focuses on the first item.
P.S: My lappy is bricked, don't know when I'll be on again: so far nothing has resolved it, it keeps freezing !

Support and Feedback / Re: Automatically re-sorts files doesn't work. Bug?

« Last post by Mathias (Author) on July 18, 2026, 19:54:27 »

OK, I've tried with my config backup restored into fresh MC.
There needs to be sth with configuration. Totally fresh install/portable don't do that, but with my configuration backup restored into them, that problem appears. Even on installed.
 
So, as I asked in the first post - is there any other setting that matters here? I had to overlook something during configuration.

Not that I can think of. So might be some weird none logical conflict between some settings. not sure what that can be
