Solved [TC 10.51rc3] Wrong dir selected in Separate tree, when View Mode with Auto-run command is applied at startup

[ghisler(Author)]

What happens is the following:
To apply cm_SrcAllFiles to the right panel, TC has to make that panel the active panel, otherwise cm_SrcAllFiles would be applied to the left panel (which is the default during startup). Activating the right panel shows and focuses its directory in the separate tree. I will prevent that from happening, but then the tree may not get updated when such a forced focus switch occurs later in the program.

I do not understand your explanations in part.

The marking of the Separate Tree as well as the View Mode with Auto Switch Mode works as expected - as stated above -
with these settings:

Code: Select all

[Configuration]		StartupScreen=1			   ) Turn splash screen at startup on/off (on=1, off=0)
- OR -							   )
[Configuration]		StartupScreen=     Not present     )

but NOT with this setting:

Code: Select all

[Configuration]		StartupScreen=0

With StartupScreen=0 the following programme flow results for me:

1. TC is started
2. Focus + Marker
   • focus in the left window (active) <ALWAYS!> ... -> c:\Users\
      
   • marking in the Separate Tree on the "Program Files" folder (= inactive window)
     This marker is FALSE because the marker should be on the "Users" folder (active window)!
      
   • For c:\Users\ there is NO View Mode and NO Auto Switch Mode
     Why should according to your statement
     "otherwise cm_SrcAllFiles would be applied to the left panel (which is the default during startup)."
     suddenly the command "cm_SrcAllFiles" used here?

It's a timing problem, the auto-run command is executed with a delay (via PostMessage).

29.08.22 Release Total Commander 10.51 release candidate 4 (RC4)
28.08.22 Fixed: Separate tree: The path of the target panel could be shown as active in the tree
                                               when using a view mode with auto-run commands (32/64)

StartupScreen=0 is fixed.
Thanks!
