Pretty trivial but also very handy if you find yourself switching between windows.
Could we have a way to highlight one or more lines in the result window?
Thanks!
highlight line/s
Re: highlight line/s
Do you mean select multiple results?
Hold down Shift to select a range of results.
Hold down Ctrl to toggle the selection.
Hold down the left-mouse button when clicking on a blank area to start a drag-selection mask.
Do you mean full row select?
To enable full row select:
Hold down Shift to select a range of results.
Hold down Ctrl to toggle the selection.
Hold down the left-mouse button when clicking on a blank area to start a drag-selection mask.
Do you mean full row select?
To enable full row select:
- In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
- Click the UI tab on the left.
- Check Full row select.
Re: highlight line/s
Ok I see what you mean, and I did enable the option you mention. The issue is (so no a feature request any more): if I click a line it tries to access the target filesystem (remote and on a slow connection ) and the whole Everything freezes.
All I would like to do is as you suggested to use single click/CTRL/SHIFT (as per filesystem operation) where instead clicking on a line seems to try to do more than that...

Re: highlight line/s
Please make sure the preview pane is disabled:
Everything will load icons for the visible files.
To disable loading icons for each file:
It might be Everything freezing due to the database blocking.
The Everything database can only perform one action at a time, and clicking in the result list may wait if there is another action taking place.
Could you please send me some debug output to help determine the cause of the issue:
- In Everything, from the View menu, uncheck Preview.
Everything will load icons for the visible files.
To disable loading icons for each file:
- In Everything, type in the following search and press ENTER:
/icon_shell_extensions=0 - If successful, you should see icon_shell_extensions=0 in the status bar for a few seconds.
where 0 = disabled, and 1 = enabled (default)

Could you please send me some debug output to help determine the cause of the issue:
- In Everything, type in the following search and press ENTER:
/debug_log - Try clicking on some results and wait for Everything to appear frozen.
- Wait for Everything to unfreeze. (it might take a few minutes)
- Type in the following search and press ENTER:
/restart
---this will stop debugging logging and restart Everything - Please send your %TEMP%\Everything Debug Log.txt to support@voidtools.com
Re: highlight line/s
Not precisely what I meant. Enabling "full row select" actually shows a blue under the the under my mouse pointer but clicking on it will try to open the destination.
My point was about selecting one or more items so that I can switch window and when eventually come back to Everything find again the reference I manually marked.
Does it make sense?
