smart movement of mouse point is quite annoying.

Post by *sangwooksohn »

Today, I tried the new TC7pb2.

While I do enjoy new look and feel, there a small annoying behavior of mouse point when double-clicking a tree menu.

In my case, I have left window set as directory tree view while right windows is set as file detail view.

If I double-click Program Files to open sub-directory tree, it opens up and displays many sub-directories on dir tree. It's good so far.
But weird part is that mouse point gets automatically moved to stay right on Program Files directory.

Here are screenshots:
1. Before I double-click 'Program Files' - mouse point on 'Program Files'

2. After I double-click 'Program Files' - mouse point on 'Program Files'

I hope there's option to turn this mouse point behavior.

I agree, that permament switching while navigating in the tree is just annoying. TC should just copy Explorer tree behaviour.

Optionally of course, just in case someone likes the present behaviour.

I still see this annoying behavior in RC1 release.
Is there any plan to adopt some sort of option to stop this mouse point behavior?
Just wondering.

If you instead of double clicking on the folder name click the + sign to the left of the name, then the cursor stays in place - maybe that can help you?
