mouse clicks accumulate

Post by Lore »

Sorry, may be easy to solve but I don't find it:
Left clicking in the file panels select more and more files (without using Cntr + left click). I used to see all others unselecting if I click one, but this behaviour has miraculously changed. Any idea how I can set this back?

I have the sticky command in the main toolbar on most of my layouts, that way you get a visual indicator that it is on and I do turn it on on purpose from time to time.

It seems there should be an indicator (similar to the filter one) on the status bar at the bottom of the x2 window for sticky mode. And, what is the "Hidden files obscured" indicator for?

if you start clicking and things remain selected, what more indicator do you need? :)
the "hidden" indicator is about the "show hidden files" setting. You can double click on the statusbar to toggle the hidden setting
