Go to last folder on back?

[FearlessSpiff]

Hi

Am I missing something or is this not implemented: When going back from a folder I'm always on top of the list of folders? Is this normal behavior? To be clear: When I have a list of folders from a-b-...-z and I enter folder 'z' and go back, I see 'a' as first entry. I would think, that the view should be the same as when entering z.

Thanks.

It's pretty annoying when I'm browsing a folder with lots of sub folders.

I logged in today to ask the same question, actually.

Or, a workaround for browsing a long folder list:

Can we do something like "open dir under cursor in other window".

Because right now, while I'm on a long folder list, I enter the folder to see its contents, when I go to the parent directory, I'm back to the top of the list

Mr. Ghisler,

Im trying out the new beta and it seems that everything is okay now.

Thanks a lot for this.

Hmmmm. Just installed the 2.02beta but it is still not working in the LAN-Plugin?!? Also the Back-Button doesn't work every time. Maybe that's just a plugin problem?

I may have spoken too soon. Tried using it with the LAN-Plugin and I still get the same issue by the OP.

Unfortunately I cannot reproduce it any more with the new version 2.02. How exactly do you get to the folder before going up one level?

ok here's a funny thing.

it works when my phone is on landscape, but not when I'm on portrait.



Portrait

1. I am browsing the "C:\Program files" of my laptop using the LAN Plugin

2. I scroll down to the bottom of the folder

3. And enter "the Windows NT" subfolder.

4. From "Windows NT" folder, I click the Up arrow.

I am back to "C:\Program files" at the top of the list.




On Landscape

1. Ok, same thing as above but on landscape.

2. I scroll down again to the lower/bottom of the folder

3. I go inside "Windows NT" subfolder

4. I press the up/parent button and I am back to "C:\Program files". But I am still at the bottom of the folder, the desired result

Unfortunately it doesn't happen in portrait mode either, neither on my phone nor on my Nexus 7.

Pardon the late reply.

There's no other way I can reproduce it, Mr. Ghisler. It still happens, actually.

I will post back if I find out anything.

Thanks for looking into it.
