Arrow keys hscroll_mul/div or more modifier for bigger steps

Post by eugenesv »

If you listview_details_hscroll_action=2 (scroll) then horizontal keyboard scrolling with arrow keys is too slow, and with Ctrl it jumps too far (is it beginning/end)?
For mouse wheel there is this cool custom hscroll_mul/div customization available so you can do most of what you'd like
Maybe keyboard arrow scrolling could similarly have such a ratio customizable? Ideally it should be customizable per modifier so you can do tiny custom steps with Alt+Left/Right, bigger custom steps with Shift+Left/Right and jump begin/end with Ctrl+Left/Right and then with Left/Right do "regular" custom steps

The next alpha update will have a listview_details_hscroll_step advanced setting.

Thank you for the suggestion.

The default is 5 to match the stock listview.
I agree, it's way too small.



Ctrl+Left/Right does larger page-size steps.

Everything 1.5.0.1401a adds an advanced listview_details_hscroll_step setting.

To set the hscroll step:
  • In Everything 1.5, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Advanced tab on the left.
  • To the right of Show settings containing, search for:
    hscroll
  • Select: listview_details_hscroll_step
  • Set the value to: 64
    (where 64 is the number of logical pixels to scroll)
  • Click OK.


Everything 1.5.0.1401a also sets the default step to 6 logical pixels.
