Keyboard shortcuts behavior different from v1.4 to v1.5

Post by EricBinet »

Hi David

By default, some keyboards shorcuts are behaving differently from v1.4 to v1.5 !

In RESULT LIST

• In Everything v1.4 - by default:

SHIT + Left/Right = "Left/Right Extend"
Selects the lines above and below the current selection

CTRL + SHIFT + Left/Right = "Focus Left/Right Extend"
Moves the focus up or down while adding new lines to the existing selection

• In Everything v1.5.0.1408a - by default:
SHIT + Left/Right = Left/Right Extend
CTRL + SHIFT + Left/Right = Focus Left/Right Extend
CTRL + Left/Right = Scroll Page Left/right or Thumbnail focus left/right

They ALL do the same thing : move the focus from left to right (column to column).

Is that supposed to be the behavior in the alpha version ?

What do you expect from an Alpha version ?
Of course one can expect changes in all functions, including keyboard shortcuts.
You can always make your own mappings again.

This is the expected behavior for Everything 1.5 in details view.

This is the expected behavior for Everything 1.5 in details view.
The keyword is "details view" !
Since I never use the Thumbnail View and the behavior is different in v1.5, I naively assumed it was a kind of bug or a change in the code ... :roll:
I tested the Thumbnail View ... My bad :D
