How does "cursor loop" work?

fresco 22 Dec 2007 15:54

Hello,

I'm the translator of the german language file. I'm currently updating the language file to version 1.2.

My problem is that I don't get what the purpose of 'cursor loop' is. I don't see a difference when I (de)activate it.

So, please help me with that. I don't know how to translate this correctly ;-)

hi,

"Cursor loop" was meant for selection loop in folder view.

For example, when view is "Icon" and an item on right edge is selected,
by pressing RIGHT key the cursor goes to item on the left edge of next line.
if the item is on the bottom, then cursor goes to the top…and so on.
( currently this is disabled in "Goup view" )

by the way, won't you put off uploading langauge file for a while?
I'm going to release 1.2 final and new language file in a couple of days.

Thanks for the info Quizo! Now I get it, and I think it's a very useful option.

It's really hard to find a suitable german term for this one … will take some time ;)

BTW: There are still some strings that are not implemented in the language file, for example the "Move to" and "Copy to" info when you move a file over a tab. Will those be included in the next update?

I had been wondering what this was too. Now that it's explained I've turned it on.
It's annoying that by default going to the right of the last item does nothing.
This one of those things I think should be built in to Explorer.

Quizo, can you please allow cursor loop to work with the Up & Down arrow keys also?
