Lock Viewer panel on a file

Hi!

Is there a way to lock display in viewer panel, so that it doesn't change as other files are selected?

Don't think there is at the moment, except by opening a standalone viewer for the file. (Either via double-click, if Opus's viewer is assigned to the type, or via the Show command.)

Hi,
do you have any plans to add such option or is it already somewhere in the preferences window?

It's not currently planned, but could happen if more people ask for it.

I strongly support the idea of a "lock feature" for the viewer. That's something I've been missing forever. I would use that every single day! It's very convenient to have, for example, a simple text file with ideas, instructions etc. open in the viewer, and be able to do some actions on other files/folders according to what you read in the viewer pane. A seperate window is much less convenient, you always have to shuffle it around or to reposition the lister window etc..

A million thanks in advance for considering this option!
