I know this is not a good title, but I really don't know how to describe it, so please be patient and I will try to be as organized as possible. Thank you very much.
Specifically, everything was fine before, but I don't know what I changed, and now I'm encountering three issues.
(Based on the phenomena, I suspect it might be related to indexing or something similar. I recently upgraded Everything from version 1.4 to 1.5a. However, after checking multiple aspects (downgrading the EV version, uninstalling EV), the issue still persists. So, I'm not quite sure if there is any connection. But just in case, I thought I'd mention it. )
Firstly, I imported my current settings into a DO of a virtual machine, and there were no issues, so it seems to be related only to my computer. However, even after I exited all software in the background and closed all scripts, the problem still occurred.
So it is likely an isolated case, and I would understand if you don't plan to analyze and solve it.
Secondly, the versions in which I encountered these issues, whether it was the 13.13 version (when I first discovered the problem,) or the latest 13.16, or even the 13.16.6 beta, all exhibited the same issues. So I guess it is not related to the version.
The first issue The label will not update and will become invalid on its own.
For example, I create a label to mark the files and folders that I edited today as green.
As the video displays, it can mark normally when I open lister at first, but it becomes invalid when I enter the second layer of the folder (not be marked as green).
Strangely, if you are quick enough and keep opening subfolders(00:32-00:36), it will become invalid at the third layer! Moreover, go back to the upper layer of the folder, the label remains invalid.
And if you create or edit a file (00:06-00:15), it will not be marked properly either.(should be green but not)
It seems as if the label only works for marking when you open lister at the first time.
The second issue: The folder format will not be saved.
Just like at 00:49 in the video, I tried to widen the name column, but after closing and reopening the window, the format will not be saved (at 01:05, I have already turned on the "Remember folder formats automatically" option). In addition, I noticed that after adjusting it, this folder will not appear in the "Remembered Formats list".
To save the folder format, only manual saving will take effect ("Favorite Formats"-"Path Formats").
The third issue: ratings not displayed real-time
This is demonstrated in the second video.
If I open the metadata pane and modify the file's rating through the attribute there (or use the SetAttr meta=rating command), it will not be displayed in real-time in the "rating" column of the lister. Only by directly modifying the "rating" column will it be displayed. Moreover, if this lister is updated, for example, by closing and reopening the folder or going to the upper or lower layers and then returning, the "rating" column will become empty and unable to display the rating.
Additional phenomenon 1: In the first few seconds after turning on the computer and the desktop has finished loading, none of the above issues will occur.
Additional phenomenon 2: After opening the lister and leaving it for a while, around 5 to 10 minutes later, everything gradually becomes normal.
A circle suddenly appeared near the location bar, perhaps indicating that some indexing or similar process was loading.
After the loading, the label can properly mark the items as green, and the star rating can also be displayed correctly in the column. (But after I close the lister, same problems will apear again.)
As none of the above three issues will occur after I save the settings and import them into a new computer, so I would understand if you don't plan to analyze and solve them. Thank you very much for reading this far.
