[solved] Cursor doesn't jump to new file after Shift+F5 copy

[petermad]

Preiviously in TC (also in earlier 7.50 betas) the cursor jumped to the new file if I use Shift+F5 to copy a file in the same panel.

In TC 7.50pb8 it is no longer like that - this change is not mentioned in history.txt - so I consider it a bug.

[Boofo]

Confirmed!

[karlchen]

Not Confirmed!

Total Commander 7.50 pb8, too, will position the cursor on the newly created file after a Shift-F5 copy operation.

+ Total Commander 7.50 pb8
+ Windows Vista Home Premium, 32bit

Kind regards,

Then I must be doing something wrong.

[Samuel]

Confirmed if the new file is higher in the list. (pb8)

[petermad]

if the new file is higher in the list

That doesn't seem to be of importance here...

It seams to be related to [Configuration] WatchDirs=x.

Cannot reproduce (using Watchdirs=51 all the time). What Watchdirs settings do you use?

[petermad]

I am also using watchdirs=51.

But I can also reproduce it with a fresh ini-file, wich means WatchDirs=0

[Samuel]

It seams to be related to [Configuration] WatchDirs=x.

Mh sorry cant reproduce the relationship anymore. (I use Watchdirs=3)

But I reproduced it even with TC 7.5 pb1 and a blank ini. And with TC 7.5 pb8 and a blank ini. But cannot reproduce always.

[ghisler(Author)]

So where does the cursor go when it doesn't go to the target?

[Samuel]

It stays on the current file.

[Boofo]

watchdirs=51 and XP Pro SP3 here.

It is quite weird. If I start wit a fresh ini file and Shift+F5 copy a file in the root of C: then the cursor stays on the old file. If I instead goes to a subdir ad do a Shift+F5 copy then the cursor goes to the new file! And if I then goes back to the root of C: and does the Shift+F5 copy then the cursor now correctly goes to the new file.

But if I restart TC with the new ini file then doing Shift+F5 copy in the root again leaves the cursor on the old file. I so it is every time I retart TC with that ini file.

Then comes the most weird thing. If I do a Shift+F5 copy in the root of drive E: the cursor moves to the new files - and after doing that the cursor also moves correctly when doing Shift+F5 copy in the root of C: - also after restart.

So with this ini file the cursor does not move when doing a Shift+F5 copy in the root of C:

Code: Select all

[Configuration]
firstmnu=2618
SeparateTree=0
PanelsVertical=0
[left]
path=c:\
ShowAllDetails=1
SpecialView=0
show=1
sortorder=0
negative Sortorder=0
[right]
path=c:\
ShowAllDetails=1
SpecialView=0
show=1
sortorder=0
negative Sortorder=0
[RightHistory]
0=c:\
[LeftHistory]
0=c:\

But with this ini file, the cursor corretcly moves to the new file when doing a Shift+F5 copy in the root of C:

Code: Select all

[Configuration]
firstmnu=3066
SeparateTree=0
PanelsVertical=0
[left]
path=c:\
ShowAllDetails=1
SpecialView=0
show=1
sortorder=0
negative Sortorder=0
[right]
path=E:\
ShowAllDetails=1
SpecialView=0
show=1
sortorder=0
negative Sortorder=0
[RightHistory]
0=E:\
[LeftHistory]
0=c:\

I will investigate some more.

Can confirm this behavior.

Seems to be root (C: ) related.
(could reproduce it always on root with empty ini)
