952 - Filename and file metadata disappear in flat view

[Free4all]

There is a bug in FreeCommander XE 2026 Build 952 64-bit in Windows 11 that causes the incredibly useful flat view to fail.

STR:
1. In FC, show a folder that has many subfolders and files in it (I use a test folder containing 1000 files and 100 subfolders, each containing 1000 files and 100 subfolders, each of which contains the same; my test folder recurses this pattern 10 levels deep).
2. Switch to flat view. Go FreeCommander!
3. Scroll down about 50% in the flat view.
4. Select a file that does not have a Windows filetype association.
5. Press enter to open the file.
6. Windows will prompt you to select an app to use to open the file.
7. Press the 'Esc' key to decline opening the file.
8. Now, you'll be back in FC. Press the up arrow keyboard key.
9. Notice that the current row's filename and its metadata disappear from the flat file listing.
10. Repeat steps 8 and 9. Each row's contents will disappear.

You're welcome. I'm happy to hear you were able to reproduce the bug.

While you're working on that area of the code, in flat mode, would it be possible to add an easy method to go to the folder of the currently selected item within FreeCommander? Perhaps just by pressing the spacebar or something simple like that? Ideally, there could be a way to open that folder in the current pane and a slightly different way to open it in the pane (e.g. spacebar and shift+spacebar). TIA

The existing Ctrl+Right should be changed to point to the file in the other pane
and not just to the containing folder as it is now.
