Silly rectangular selection

Post by canis »

To rename a group of files I just tried to select them and noticed some silly behaviour.

When viewing the images as an array of miniature pictures, selecting them does not select consecutive pictures but rectangles of pictures. I don't think that is what anybody wants to.

When viewing the details list, then there is no way to display the filenames, so I do not know which pictures they are.

Partly.
Selection of miniatures is like explorer, even if it is not nice.
But Details without a file name??? That's not true.

Of course not! Thanks a lot, that was the simple solution to my problem!

BTW: Do you know a date when the jpf-Files will be recognized?
