Sticky file selection
Sticky file selection
I would like the ability to retain the selection on files I click. Right now I can do this with <CTRL>-click, but if I'm selecting lots of files (like weeding out bad photos I downloaded from my camera, using either Thumbnails or Quick View), it becomes tedious to hold that control key down. And if I forget once, then I lose all my selections.
There is another file manager program, xplorer2, that has this capability; you toggle it with the "Mark | Sticky selection" command.

Thanks, I didn't realize that! ('NC-Mode' is not exactly mnemonic to me; I have used a *lot* of file managers over the years--I think Lotus Magellan was the first one--but I'm afraid Norton Commander wasn't one of them.)

Agree--something with the phrase "Sticky selection" would be easier to understand. I would not object to it mentioning NC, although to be honest, even if I had used NC, I doubt that I would remember that it had a sticky selection capability. (I don't remember what capabilities Lotus Magellan had. Maybe that's just because I'm getting senile--but I suppose that if I were not this old and feeble, I wouldn't have been using Magellan :-!)
