Next/Prev picture should move selection

Post by demandi512 »

The macOS Finder has a great feature: When displaying images and other documents via the SPACE key, the selected document is shown, and this selection is following the cursor keys. The effect of this behaviour is, that when one leaves the presentation, the last displayed document will be selected in the Finder. No searching, so scrolling. A perfect landing.

It took me some time to find it, also because I could not switch the UI to English. In German, do as follows:

Open menu "Werkzeuge", select item "Einstellungen", select "Benutzeroberfläche" on the left side and "Auswahl in .. synchronisieren" on the right side.

Thanks! This is a highly appreciated feature.
