In "Show" menu, the icon for the "Only Selected Files" does not toggle

Post by *gdpr deleted 6 »

When selecting the "Only Selected Files" option in the "Show" menu, its icon does not switch to the "enabled"/"on" state.

Observed in TC 9.51 x64 and x86 on Win7 Pro x64 (with a fresh INI, of course)

I guess it is by design because it is only a temporary state - see: https://www.ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?p=393778#p393778

Hmm, in my opinion the menu item should still reflect the state. Even if the state is temporary, it is still a state TC is in. Anyway, it's not a big deal either way... :)

Yes, it's not a permanent state: If it were, and you would remove the selection from files in that state, the files would have to be hidden immediately.

Ah, i get it now why it does not make sense to have a toggle indicator for this menu item.

An addtional situation that demonstrates that it is not really a state being toggled: I can show only the selected files by invoking "Only Selected Files" , and then in the file panel (showing only the files that have been selected) once more select only a few files and invoke "Only Selected Files" again, (and repeat this again, if desired).
