Scrolling wrong way round? [DONE]

Post by baronmax » Wed Oct 26, 2016 3:02 pm

Maybe its just me but two finger trackpad scrolling seems the wrong way round - go downwards on the trackpad and the file selection goes up...

If there's some who prefer it this way maybe it should be an option (it might be there but haven't found it).

Thanks

Hi baronmax, and welcome to the forum!

Yep, current (v1.1.5) scrolling behavior might seem awkward, since it actually was borrowed from TUI file managers like FAR.
The logic is pretty simple - try to scroll content around relative cursor position, and if it's not possible - then change relative cursor position itself.
You can check this with large directories, not fitting vertically in file panel.

Anyway, this behavior will be changed completely in next version (say, v1.2.0), since I'm currently moving main UI from custom-crafted controls to standard system components.

Mike.

Since preview builds of new UI are already available (http://magnumbytes.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=177) - I'm closing this topic.
