Follow file when sorting

Post by john1 »

On Windows explorer, when there is a single file selected and you choose one of the sorting options, the scrollbar follows the file's new position.

It would be nice if Everything did the same thing. Currently scrollbar doesn't move and the selected file is no longer visible after sorting.

Please try enabling show focus on search:
In Everything, type in the following search and press ENTER:
/show_focus_on_search=1

I'll consider making this option the default and/or making this option more accessible.

Thanks for the suggestion.
