Find, hide and position

[mdruiter]

The cursor position in Find is strange after hiding files.
I try:
- search for (find) a long list of files and folders
- go to position 20 or so
- select that file and up (Shift-Ctrl-Home)
- hide (Ctrl-H); the first file (of folder) is selected afterwards (position 1)
- press Shift-Down (or Shift-PgDn)
The selection seems to start at position 20 now, which is strange. If I press Down, Up first and then start using Shift, everything works like expected.
If after hiding less than 20 files and folders exist, the selection starts at position 2 after Shift-Down.

This has been true for quite some versions of Salamander.

I tried to look for similar postings, but searching for Find returned nothing at all!?

forum search is very bad

As far as I know this problem hasn't been reported before on this forum.

By the way: this is how problem reports should look like Nice and easy list of steps to reproduce the problem. Good work!

I'm a developer myself...
But I'm curious whether anyone can confirm the problem.

[mdruiter]

I still have the issue, using version 2.52

[mdruiter]

Also in 2.53 PB38.
Is it hard to fix?

I can confirm. I think the fix is a simple matter of moving the "selection start position" to the resulting (first in this case) position in the list as well, similarly to the focus.

Fixed, will be available in next release of AS.

[mdruiter]

Confirmed, hurray!

[mdruiter]

I'm sorry to say that not all situations are fixed. The exact situation I described in the starting post is not fixed.
I tried the 2.53 release.

[Jan Rysavy]

Confirmed. Unfortunately I didn't find how to solve this problem. Looks like common controls / listview bug to me.

[Jan Rysavy]

Fixed with small hack!

Code: Select all

ListView_SetItemCount(FoundFilesListView->HWindow, 0); // hack
ListView_SetItemCount(FoundFilesListView->HWindow, totalCount - deletedCount);

Great, works as it should now!
