"open left folder on the right" behaviour

#1 Post by tom_yorados » 08.06.2021, 10:25

Hi,

in Build 840, when I use functions
"open left folder on the right" CTRL+Right
or
"open right folder on the left" CTRL+Left

the focus also switches to the newly opened folder on the other side.
My old Version 2009.02b does not change the focus. How do I get back the old behaviour in the new FC?

Best wishes
Tom

I wish to know that too.
Just testing version 880 and the focus also keep changes to the opposite panel.
Is that a desired feature or a bug?
Personally, I would love it was configurable or there were two separate commands (with and without changing the panel focus).

Workaround: use for the Splitter informative icons [from e.g. www.icons.db] with commands for

● Swap Panels
● Right to left
● Left to right
● Open folder: In the other panel (new TAB)

I myself use them all the time and do not even know what the corresponding keyboard shortcuts are and have no workflow issues with focus changing a Panel. Trust me, you will get used to this modus operandi
