Focus Issue 1332

There's probably an issue here


Highlight 2 consecutive files
Rename them such that they're no longer in the current viewport

Hit <sp> to bring to focus

Depending... perhaps where location-wise in the viewport the files started, like maybe at the top, or at the bottom, or ... ?, the 2 files may not end up refocused withing the (new) viewport, as in 1 will be, but the other may not be (& if not, it would be 1 line out of view).


(Don't know if this holds in 1333?)

Thank you for the issue report therube,

Pressing space will bring only the focus into view.

In the next alpha update I will experiment with bringing the focus into the center of the view.

[therube]

Yes, but I don't recall this having been an issue prior to 1332/1333.

It's always been like this.

I wonder if you previously had keep_result_focus_in_view enabled?

You're right.

I wonder if you previously had keep_result_focus_in_view enabled?

I'll have to check.

focus... (rename not required, simply select some items)

if items are out of focus
having scrolled UP in the viewport (so items are moved DOWN)
<sp> brings all items into focus
with 1 un-highlighted line as the last line in the viewport

if items are out of focus
having scrolled DOWN in the viewport (so items are moved UP)
<sp> brings only the last highlighted item into focus - as the top line in the viewport
- all other highlighted lines are above that, out of focus


(heh. i throw around [version] numbers like they're absolutes,
where actually it might just be an action that i hadn't put my
head around yet, or even more oddly, that i hadn't run into - yet)

I wonder if you previously had keep_result_focus_in_view enabled?

I did, up through 1327.
But after that it was reset to 0.

Again, did I knowingly... No. Might I have checked [incorrectly] the value? Possible, but I'm thinking not?

I'll set it back to =1 & see how that fares...

(with 1331, i had occassion to start over fresh, .ini...
actually - the issue with spacing (text_size) threw me,
so i figured i'd start with a fresh .ini & take it from there... guess i could plug in my 1329.ini & test that way...)

1331 ramble

From memory, did you reset your settings here?



I cannot find where we discussed turning on keep_result_focus_in_view..
I vaguely remember talking about keeping the focus in view after a rename.
Maybe via email?

From memory, did you reset your settings here?

I'm glad your memory is better then mine .

At the time, I didn't "reset", but simply started fresh (so no preexisting .ini).
I then compared new vs. old (.ini) & set diffs to match - for those items that I knew I wanted to have back.
For the items I was not sure of, I would have left them at (1331) defaults, to see how things panned out.


And in that regard, there is, actually was - even before I originally posted this, another nagging focus/highlight issue - but I'm thinking it probably has to do with:

(heh. i throw around [version] numbers [& on what computer I'm doing something on] like they're absolutes,
where actually it might just be an action that i hadn't put my
head around yet, or even more oddly, that i hadn't run into - yet)

And in that regard, I might be somewhat conflating highlighted files & multi-Rename, & how they, after renamed, while they may be physically disbursed (based on new name & sorting), they are all still highlighted, & thinking something like that should apply "everywhere", so when I did a different action, like <sp> to focus, I might have kind of been expecting focus to remain on the "set" of originally highlighted files - where that never did happen at all.

Everything 1.5.0.1334a will now bring the focus into the center of the view.
