Hi devs,
If i choose a dir with visible and hidden files i can use the drop menue to "mark" commands to be executed in a row with the left mouse button (i think three is the maximum -not sure if this has been updated?-, all following will be skipped) like 1) View by Name 2) Show all Files 3) Select contents
Now i have a problem with the "work-flow" of OS4 executing the commands
Normally (at least thats how i from a user POV sees it) it should go through the commands in the way they were marked, FIFO-like, but they don't
In this example the first thing that happens is that the visible files get marked (#3) then the hidden files show up (#2) and only as the last point the files are drawn as names (#1) which lets me end up with a name list of all files in the dir but only those with icons marked (which is wrong imho)
I thought it might be a "top to bottom" list thing/behaviour, because the three commands in the drop down menue are placed from top to bottom 3-2-1 so maybe they are simply read and executed that way by the OS (of course i'm shooting in the blue here)
Another guess would be that some commands have a higher Priority than others (again, pure speculation)
Please someone with a little insight shed some light for me
If it isn't a bug then please someone could tell me if this has already been addressed? I really would like to have the commands executed in the chronology the user chose them...if possible
Thanks a lot
