This bug is really annoying to me.

Say you have a file selected in the middle of a long file listing in a tab. If you switch to another tab and then come back to the first one, you'll see the list reset: it starts listing in the beginning and then quickly the cursor is moved to the file selected, but the file listing doesn't stay the same. This makes the program very slow.

Tabs shouldn't be reset when you click them, the should stay exactly the same to switch between tabs quickly and not watch them reset and then move the cursor.

Lemme show you an example. Let's say this is my tab:

If I go to another tab and then come back to this one, I can see the listing starts from the beginning and quickly change to this:

As you can see it didn't stay the same.

which FCXE version?
how do you switch to another tab?

anyway, I can't confirm on FCXE_653

To switch tabs I just click on another tab and then click back on the first tab.

EDIT: Try this. Make your computer do something really intensive that makes it very slow. Then look for a very long folder in your computer, like Windows\system32 and select a file in the middle of the listing. Switch to another tab and then go back to this one. You'll see the list is reset at the beginning and then the cursor is moved to the file you had selected.

Another way: Do the same, but instead don't click any file. Just scroll to the middle of the file listing without selecting any file. Switch to another tab and come back to this one: listing is at the beginning.

nope, can't confirm
