Follow-up Comment #1, bug #18766 (project mc): Uhm, well.. It seems this behaviour is by design:
[...] Tue Aug 29 14:33:16 1995 Jakub Jelinek * layout.c (swap_panels): Fixed. Now it should work fine and if there are both view_listings, then it just swappes their content (and not formats etc.), so that you may have one format in the left and a different one in the right panel and if you want to see some things that are in the left for a file on the right, you just C-u. [...] And also from the swap_panels() in layout.c: /* Change everything except format/sort/panel_name etc. */ As I understand it the idea is to have a super-fast way to view some file attributes which are not displayed in the other view but are displayed in the current panel view. I noticed that this function is not documented very well - IMO the documentation is not clear on what this command's purpose is :) _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?18766> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/ _______________________________________________ Mc-devel mailing list http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc-devel
