Show pic automaticly in preview pane?

[archibald]

I have been fiddeling with the options, but I haven't found anyway so does anyone know if this is even possible :


Have a folder in the folders pane marked and walk to the next with an arrow key on the keyboard. If any files corresponding to chosen filter (in my case, pictures) settings are present these will show up in the thumbnail pane.

At this moment I would like to have the first pictures in the thumbnail pane to also show up in the preview pane. Instead as it is now you need to click on a picture so you can view it in preview and then click on the folder again to be able to move on to the next folder - very cumbersome when you are quickly moving through large sets of pictures in the hunt of one particular folder.


Anyone know if this can be fixed by simple options-changing or is this a feature still missing from this marvelous software?

Thanks! That solved it alright. How I was able to miss it while trying to get it to do just that will be a mystery for the ages XD
