Selecting several files/thumbnails in browser

Post by Mik »

Hi!
Thanx for your great software.
Suggestion: when selecting several files (when shown as thumbnails) in the browser window with mouseclick+shift xnview behaves like windows explorer: when the first file is somewhere in the middle of the row and the last file too but a few lines lower, the selection is like a box, sparing all files/rows beside. I think a sequential selection, like in detail view, that contains all files from the first to the last selected according to the sorting order would be more usefull.
Thanx a lot, Mik
