[Feature Request] Open Folder also selects the file in explorer
Closed this issue · 2 comments
I use a fairly flat folder structure for a large collection of movies. Opening a scene straight from YAPO in VLC is functional, but I prefer the freedom to chose other players that are already available in Explorer’s Context Menu. The Open Folder button in the scene opens the flat folder, and then I have to manually find the file. I don’t use the rename feature, but I imagine if I did, I may also even have a hard time finding the file.
It would be preferable to bring the file for the referenced scene to focus. Chrome’s “View in folder” feature for downloaded files is a great example. The folder is opened in explorer and the file is pre-selected, which brings it into view even in a folder with a lot of files.
This is indeed possible (it will open a new File Explorer instance), and will be added in the next update since it's an easy improvement.
This is now implement for the coming version. Be aware that Explorer might "lose" the file if it takes too long to open the directory.
