Clicking on the inactive panel let the items change their po

#1 Post by Dirk » 25.01.2014, 10:21

When I click / double click on a folder / file in the inactive panel all of the items in that panel sroll / jump up or down (I assume because of the changing of the tab order in that panel), so I do not hit the right item. How could I make FC XE stop doing it?

Can't confirm in 650 public / 652 donor, Win Vista 32 bit. Which version/OS are you using?

Thank you, Dreamer,

XE 2014 Build 650, portable.

So, when I try to click on an item in the none active panel, I hit the item above it or below it. May be that behaviour depents on the amount of tabs you have. The tabs are changing their positions when I click in the inactive panel.

It can be replicated if you're using Multi-line for tabs and you have just the right amount of tabs opened. It's because of that tiny space at the right that appears when the panel gains focus and the tabs don't fit on one row anymore.

Edit: I think that space is for the arrows that appear if Multi-line is disabled and you have many tabs opened (more than fit on the screen). How about having the arrows show even when Multi-line is selected? They could be used to cycle through the tabs.

Deactivate the option "Bold active tab".

It looks it's the same issue as the status bar issue, reported by me some time ago...
