Maybe a bug with Explore in Everything with file lists

Post by vsub »

Maybe a bug or I have something enaled(or not enabled)that is causing this behaviour or it just don't work with file lists

1.Open a file list
2.Turn on Folder view
3.Right click on a file
4.From the context menu choose the folder the file is and you will get multiple options like
Search in Everything
Search in Everything (New Tab)
Explore in Everything

When I choose Explore in Everything,this just opens a new home tab and it does not move the location in the folder tree in the folder view sidebar

And also just a question(or maybe a request)
Is it possible the "Explore in Everything" context menu to be visible even when Folder View is not enabled so when you choose to explore,it will open the folder view and navigate to that location

Edit:Oh,hold shift(is there is an ini only option maybe to not require holding shift)

Edit2:The file list part only works if the file is in the database even if you can go to the file with the explorer

Just adding some notes here to help others:

Shift + Explore in Everything = New window
This will most likely use your local index instead of the same opened filelist in the new window. (so the folder isn't selected in the folders sidebar)



Everything should show Explore in Everything for folders when the folders sidebar is shown.
No need to hold shift.

Hold shift to always show Explore in Everything.
Let go of shift before clicking on Explore in Everything.
