Quick view panel in Search Results

Suggestion: A small quick view panel in the search results window, or allow lister to 'track' the active file when browsing the search results.

I often search for images based on name, e.g. just 'cat' - so I get a list of files as expected, but I still don't know which 'cat' I need, so now I feed results to listbox and then quick view to find the one I want to use.

To save a step a quick view panel available directly in the search results would be useful (for me).
It can be a thumbnail view and even limited to omit files from archives for example.

I can already use F3 to view a file but that only works for one file.

This is already possible with "Feed to listbox" and then "Thumbnail View" or with "Feed to listbox" and then Ctrl+Q (Quick View Panel)

@joube That is what I said of course (see bold above now), but I want to skip the feed to listbox step and simple be able to quick view the images (or other files).

Code: Select all


|---------------------------------------|  [ start search] 
|Find: cat                              |  [    cancel   ]
|---------------------------------------|  [     help    ]
|Search results      | Quick view panel |
|   cat1.png         |   /\_/\  (       |
| > cat2.png         |  ( ^.^ ) _)      |
|   cat3.png         |    \"/  (        |
|   cat4.png         |  ( | | )         |
|   cate.png         | (__d b__)        |
|   catx.png         |                  |
|   catq.png         |                  |
|---------------------------------------|

And what is the difference (apart from pressing the button) apart from the many major disadvantages that result from it? *)

*) which should be obvious for an experienced user like I assume you are (like no: F5, F6, Shift+F6...).
