I asked for a toggle that would allow the previous behavior to remain possible, and the response I got instead suggested adding a new feature/button/command for that old behavior. Your argument feels strange to me, because I just upgraded to 25.08.2 to test it, and the UX wheel you’re talking about is still inconsistent and wrong. I can copy or cut a file, select a folder, try to paste and it won’t paste into the selected folder. I can press F10 > Create New > Folder and it will create it in the current directory, not the selected one. You know why? Because paste (just like create) has always been meant to work for the CWD, not the selected folder. If anything, I'd say the behavior you were expecting seems like a bug rather than a feature but I digress. I use my keyboard and not my mouse, so even in Details view mode it's easy for me to unselect whatever is selected by pressing Escape and making a new folder in CWD with a shortcut, that isn't the argument I'm making however. Fact of the matter is, this new fix hinders me from working at the speed which I'm used to. As I mentioned earlier, I am for making this behavior optional or as Meven suggested, making a new button entirely. I want to be able to create a folder in the current directory, regardless of whether something is selected or not using a keyboard shortcut. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
