Open selected folders in new tabs when pressing Alt + Enter

If I set Filetypes > All Folders > Events, left double click + Alt with go newtab=findinactive, will this also apply when using Enter instead of double click?

I want to open the selected folders in new tabs within the current lister, whenever I press Alt + Enter (in details mode), however, only the first folder opens in a new tab, while the others open in new listers.

I also tried by changing that event to go newtab=findinactive fromsel.

Is there another config I should check?

Thanks.

What's Intro ?

Ah sorry, I meant the Return key.

Alt + Enter will trigger the Alt + Double-Click event, but only if no hotkey is assigned to that combination.

By default, Alt + Enter opens the Properties dialog for the selected items. So you probably need to disable or re-assign that hotkey via Customize to get what you want.

Thanks Leo, but it's not.

It should work in that case. At least with the main Return key. (I don't have a numpad on this keyboard to try the numpad Enter key right now.)

If I change the All Folders Left double-click + Alt event to run help about, Alt + Return on a folder opens the About dialog, so it's definitely using the events, not a hardcoded action or anything like that.


In that case, the "About" dialog opens once and then a new lister opens for each selected folder (except the first), so I'm not sure what's going on.
Just in case I disabled all the scripts that use tab/lister events, but to no avail.

No other lines/commands still in the event after help about?

Nope.

I don't know how that could cause a new window to open, in that case, unless something external to Opus is doing something (e.g. tools to modify behavior of file-open dialogs that also affect Opus).

By the way, this looks like a visual glitch in the hotkey search control. Is that reproducable for you? Do you know if it depends on the font or similar details?

The only program I could think of is Listary 5, but even after closing it completely, the issue persists.
A mistery indeed.

I also just noticed this. Not sure what's causing it.
I tried by changing the font/font size (factory reset the page) and DPI (to 100%), but it still looks the same.

I think I've worked out what was going wrong with the search/hotkey field close icon. It'll be fixed in 13.8.1.
