Scroll wheel focus on wrong area in Mult-Rename UI
Posted: 12.09.2016, 07:09
FreeCommander Build 716 32-bit
Normally, in FreeCommander, the user can put the cursor over either pane and use the pointing device's scroll wheel to scroll the panel under the cursor. The user need not select the pane first.
In the Multi-Rename window, this does not work.
If the user places the cursor over the file/folder pane at the top of the window, but the last focus was anywhere in Settings or Profiles sections below, the file/folder pane will not scroll. Worse, the user will lose whatever they had typed in the area below. This can be a real problem when the user is entering a complex regex expression in the "Search for" field, then places the cursor over the file/folder pane and uses the scroll wheel... the entire regex disappears!!! I lost 10 minutes of work to this! :-0
