1370: Cut / Paste bug

[therube]

Everything 1370 CUT/PASTE bug (& i never looked at 1368/1369)


OH i wonder (now) if it isn't just some actions, some times, are not updating what
is DISPLAYED? cause the last time i ran into this CUT/PASTE that did not, at that
point i reverted to 1367, & loaded up the same tabs, & CUT the file that didn't, &
when i went to "PASTE", it said "The source & destination files are the same", so... ?



/something/ is going on with CUT/PASTE - between tabs
[unknown if between windows also affected, but i'll assume so?]
- don't assume !
(looks like, at least with a quick look, between windows is OK)
(looks like, at least with a quick look, between a /different/ tab in the same window,
different from where i actually wanted to do the PASTE, also worked, & a Ctrl+Z, &
try again with the "non-performing" tab, still not working)


- this happens, sometimes


the first time i saw an issue with 1370, i /thought/ there was actual data loss (this
was during a CUT/PASTE time), as in files "disappeared", or at least seemed to?, but,
i was not seeing coinciding references in Index Journal, so then i thought, maybe a
/naming/ issue (like losing the file extension), so i searched for the files size,
& size found the file, & then it was like "magically" what i had not seen moments
before, were "back", & then i was like, well maybe some really weird (& long) delay,
& until things got sorted...

so with that, i (purposely) did some more CUT/PASTE - paying attention (rather then
just, assuming), & that looked to work as expected (& with that, simply thought, well,
it was me, just not seeing, rather then anything to do with data loss or delays, or
anything else...)

whether NOT cutting & pasting
[note: that the CUT file does /display/ as "cut")
or
disappearing ???
or
no real clue at this point

but something... odd is going on with 1370


perhaps ? it might have something to do with having a "soft, trailing" open on a file
(vs. an absolute "lock") [like with media players, mpv, "soft", vs. mplayer, "lock"]
but if so, issue certainly was not there in 1367


OH, this is on T:, as it happens, BTW (& so the only reason i'm noting it)
these 2 (other) tabs (in the window, & intended for PASTE into said different directories) are different:
> T:/NEW/ & T:/NEW/delme
one, has a trailing /, the other not, so... maybe the trailing / or not ? is playing in?


want more oddity...
take the associated .lnk file (assuming one was created)
check its' properties
on first check, Target: is in its' source
CUT/PASTE (& a successfull CUT/PASTE at that)
check its' properties
- still shows the old source location
CUT/PASTE (again, & this time also a successfull PASTE to the [what had been] "stuck" tab, & /this/ time, it worked)

[something in between writing here, where the orig tab did correctly show the newly pasted location,
the file itself did still /display/ in CUT mode - even though it did PASTE, but as i'm writing this,
it did set itself (correctly) to display as un-cut
- not sure what caused 1 or the other behavior - back to .lnk...]

check its' properties
- still shows the old source location
so the file has been moved, twice, yet the .lnk still shows the orig source location

click the .lnk - rather then the file

the file opens (didn't quite expect that)
& the .lnk itself is touched (date & time, set current, where before it was still "old")

check the .lnk properties
- NOW it shows the new file location (rather then the source location before any moves)

so it seems ? changes that would affect a .lnk file are stored in memory, until...


This was a "failed" CUT/PASTE:

The clipboard chain is broken.

If you have Microsoft Spy++ (or other window monitoring tool), check what program is using the 2de92bca window handle.



Nothing has changed in Everything from 1367 to 1370 with the handling of the clipboard.



I'll look into adding support for AddClipboardFormatListener. (a newer API that is not prone to broken clipboard chains)

[therube]

CLCL is clipboard caching utility.

Though I've used that used for years (& the program is unchanged since, 2022/12/1).

And that said...

[therube]

so, let me tell you a story...

i woke up at 4:AM, dripping with sweat
& the world said, inclusive, INCLUSIVE

& i shouted

No! i am me, & no one else is me! distinct: DISTINCT:!


so, let me tell you a story...

the other day my cat got bit (by something)
& he was OK, just bleeding a bit
two days ago he was not right, shying away from me
& yesterday he did not eat & was hiding from me

so i took him to the hospital - but they were closed,
didn't open till 6:PM, so i went to work

when i came home, he still wasn't right, so i took him
to the hospital. some twohundredfiftytwo dollars
later we were on our way home. & he ate, & went outside,
& came in, & ate, & went outside, & came in, & ate, &
went outside. he was doing good. around 1:AM i got him
in & said, going to bed.

at some point, he woke me up, jumping on me. i opened
my eyes, & dark, must be early. so i scratched him some,
got up, brushed my teeth, & let him out, then looked at
the clock, 4:AM, & with that, i'm like, i'm going back
to bed, thinking he'd ask to come back in relatively
soon as it was raining.

at some point later, i wake up again & figure i ought to
go check on him, still dark, still raining. it was 6:AM.
open the front door - not there. go to the back door &
there he was - wet. highly unusual for him to be wet
- even if it was raining outside.

& then i thought about what i had posted just yesterday,

i am really not liking where Everything has become more "accurate"
because as i'm apt to use DISTINCT: (or similar) regularly, & might
or might not have it enabled in particular windows/tabs, when i
make a change & jump to a different window/tab & don't see what
i'm expecting, it then (& too often now) has become an oh, i've
got to hit F5 to Refresh for the change to run up <dag'nam'it, heh>

& then, it dawned on me, yet it was not yet dawn, DISTINCT:!

6:AM, still dark, & i'm like, i'm going back to bed

some time later, got up & made pancakes

then i fired up my computer, & Everything 1370,
& sure enough DISTINCT: had become even more, DISTINCT! (then <= 1367)

[therube]

1370 on a DISTINCT: or maybe it might be between multiple DISTINCT:
windows/tabs, a CUT/PASTE may not appear to CUT/PASTE, may still
show as CUT - even after having "PASTED" it elsewhere - which may
not show as up, because the DISTINCT: in that other window/tab
does not allow it to show - until... something, like a Refresh,
or, something (along those lines)

so, no T:'s, no trailing /'s, but instead... DISTINCT:

(now, let me get out of 1370 & revert back to 1367 )
(this all did dawn on me at that 4:AM period of time.
good thing someone let the cat out of the bag - or is it
the cat in the hat?)

[therube]

so... (& you thought we were done )

in 1367, 2 DISTINCT: tabs, a cut from 1 & paste into 2,
correctly shows the newly pasted location - in 1,
but 2 does not update - until refreshed

i hadn't realized that before, because never had the
need to access anything from 2, & 1 did correctly show
that the file had indeed, moved (without any Refresh
being required)

in 1367, 2 DISTINCT: windows, a rename in window 1 is
reflected in window 2

(without looking, i'll, heh, assume, 1370 would act accordingly
as that would have stood out had it not, so i'll say it does?)

[therube]

Here is CUT/PASTE, similar situation - that worked as expected, in 1367:

Everything 1.5.0.1371a adds support for AddClipboardFormatListener.

AddClipboardFormatListener is the newer API to register for clipboard changes. (Vista+)

To disable AddClipboardFormatListener:

• In Everything 1.5, from the Tools menu, click Options.
• Click the Advanced tab on the left.
• To the right of Show settings containing, search for:
  clipboard
• Select: add_clipboard_format_listener
• Set the value to: false
• Click OK.

AddClipboardFormatListener is enabled by default.



Everything will only monitor the clipboard when:

You cut an item from Everything.
-or-
You include clipboard: in your search.



I have also added more debug information to try to work out the paste issue.

When pasting you should see the following in the debug console:
PASTE <paste_file_operation> <item-count>
PASTE invoke
PASTE OP

From the logs, it looks like pasting to more than 1 location is causing the issue.
Are you pasting to more than 1 location?
Could you please check if the cut item or paste location has a very long filename (> 259 characters)



There's two paths when pasting:

If paste_file_operation is disabled, use "paste invoke"
If there's 1 item selected and it's not a very long filename, use "paste invoke"
Otherwise, use "paste file operation".

"paste invoke" just executes the selection with the "paste" verb.
"paste file operation" performs a shell move/copy file operation.

The "paste file operation" path appears to fail for you.
I'm unsure why at this stage. (nothings changed in the code for ages)

[therube]

it looks like pasting to more than 1 location is causing the issue

Just 1.
Select, cut (Ctrl+X) a file in 1 tab, Ctrl+TAB to the next tab, Shift+INS.

check if the cut item or paste location has a very long filename

Nope.
SFN in both cases.


As far as the distinct: part is concerned (which appears to be integral to the issue):

Actually, I use a Filter, UNIQ (& named long ago, so while it says "UNIQ", it's actually distinct:):

video: sort:name: distinct:

I'll also note, that the Filter has Sort: Size, Descending, set (which I can't say I recalled, & it looks like that is overridden by the Search: itself), & a Hotkey: Alt+U.


Are you seeing difference between the 1370 & 1367 logs (where I am seeing different operational behaviors)?

[therube]

I wonder...

I wonder if it is not in fact a focus issue?


You CUT from 1 tab, Ctrl+TAB to the next, and...
and at that point focus is - in lala land - sometimes.

And at those times, when you attempt to Paste, because you're not where you think you are, the Paste fails?

focus is not in the searchbar
nor is focus is not in the results field

Paste fails.


I think it is (a focus issue).
But why is it SO much more pronounced in 1370 then <= 1367?
And more pronounced with distinct: then not?


Short clip. (#'s are seconds into the clip)
0. note how focus appears to NOT be
4. focus is on the file i want to cut
file shows as cut
7. i click the target tab & focus is still, not
(Ctrl+TAB would have given same results)
18. i've hit Shift+INS any number of times, yet nothing is pasted
(as focus is, not)
28. focus is NOW set
the file was pasted (shown in Salamander)
& then i do a Refresh (needed cause of distinct:) & it then shows in Everything
44. cut from TAB1
48. at this point, I've Ctrl+TAB to TAB2
& focus is, not
again pasting (Shift+INS), but nothing happening, paste fails
likewise, menu shows Paste is grayed out
101. focus is provided
104. file is still cut in TAB1
...

Don't ever try AV1 again as it is ridiculously slow [on my computer] .)

[therube]

Issue can be exacerbated simply by doing a CUT.
Cause once a file is CUT (& pasted elsewhere, focus at that point (in the source of the CUT window) is not.
So when you go back to that window (or Tab), & without specifically setting focus (into the Results list), an attempt to Paste, will fail.

[therube]

You can Paste into searchbar.
You can Paste into results list.

So long as the correct area had been set, at some point, an attempted Paste should still work, even if a Cut action "unset" focus. The area, be it searchbar or results list, should still be known, even if focus itself isn't (any longer [anywhere, I guess it is]).


(I'm still really puzzled why this became so apparent in 1370, when I'd been doing the same, umpteen times before in 1367.
That's weird.

Worst part is, now that I know what's going on, I won't be able to duplicate it - because I'll now knowingly set focus when I Ctrl+TAB to a Tab on seeing it unset.)

[therube]

i'm Pasting into a directory (path)
i'm Pasting into a Results List window containing /files/ (not directories)
of the Path i'm wanting to paste to
(happens to be all the files in the Results List are of the same [exact, & only 1 at that] directory
- T:/new/ parents:2 & T/NEW/delme (which has no subdirectories)

TAB1 | TAB2

there does need to be a least 1 file in said (dirs) in order to be able to paste
focus must actually /be/ in the Result List
(rather then someplace else, or undefined, not set)

anyhow

TAB1

• file1
  file2
  file3

TAB2

• file21
  file22
  file23
  cutme

TAB1, focus on file1
TAB2, focus on cutme
CUT cutme, Ctrl+TAB to TAB1, Shift+INS

> cutme is now in TAB1
(expected & correct)

TAB1, now focus on cutme
^--- pertinent

SWITCH to TAB2
Ctrl+Z

> this undoes the prior Cut&Paste
> at this point, cutme is back in TAB2, as expected

TAB2, focus on cutme
CUT cutme

> cutme shows as CUT

Ctrl+TAB to TAB1

> NOTE: at this point focus is UNDEFINED
(or something along those lines, at the least, it is NOT in the Results List)

at this point, if you were to PASTE
the expected PASTE fails
if you revisit TAB2, you will see the file is still there, still showing as CUT

GOTO TAB1
CLICK into the TAB1 Results Window
(i.e., you are specifically providing focus to TAB1 Results Window)

Shift+INS

> at this point, the file, cutme, which has remained CUT all this time,
> is now successfully PASTED into TAB1

[therube]

now that I know what's going on, I won't be able to duplicate it - because I'll now knowingly set focus when I Ctrl+TAB to a Tab on seeing it unset

Don't believe it. Cause you will forget.

And then you'll be like huh?

And then you will check this & check that & check the other, & then you will do an Everything Refresh on the Index, & then you will do a CHKDSK on the drive, & you still say, huh?

And then you remember. And say, ah!


And then a couple days later, it happens to happen again, & you say, huh ?, but then a moment later, you say, ah!
.

Everything - Focus is in La-La-Land.png (22.95 KiB) Viewed 5925 times

at this point, even though Everything has focus,
focus is NOT

i CUT file from 24255
i TAB to delme.from.K
& Shift+INS (Paste)
YET, nothing happens
- because, because of circumstances, perhaps extraneous (to Everything) circumstances,
focus is no longer in the filelist
so an attempted cut/paste, fails
the CUT file still shows as CUT
the PASTED file, does NOT
& it's like... why?
(now, given that it [also, happened to] happen a couple of days ago, & since i figured
it out then, having forgotten what had happened - before a couple days ago, i know...
but, the next time it happens, again, some later point down the road, i'm going to be
like, huh ? & /hopefully/, but with no guarantees, it will click, & i will say, ah...)


& actually, clicking in whitespace in the filelist will not do it
i have to actually click on one of the entries in the filelist
(either the file or the directory)


& i'll note, similarly, if you have pointed to a /directory/
(like, /delme.from.K/) & if that directory is empty, so nothing
exists in the filelist, you cannot TAB to that tab (delme.from.K)
& PASTE into it

[void]

Pasting requires a selection in Everything.

If a folder is selected:
The cut file is pasted inside the selected folder.

If a file is selected:
The cut file is pasted into the parent folder of the selected file.



Are you expecting Everything to paste into K:\xfeRRRRRRRR\DONE\DONEX\delme.from.K when there's no selection and K:\xfeRRRRRRRR\DONE\DONEX\delme.from.K is shown in the search box?

[therube]

I guess I'm expecting a selection that had been set to remain set, even if the item that had been selected is no longer there.

So if the results list is selected, it should remain selected even when some action, external or otherwise, causes it to be in a "not selected" state.

[therube]

CUT a file
(do not change focus in the results list)
Alt+Back & PASTE into some other directory
Alt+FWD

- at that point, focus is NOT (not in the results list)

Alt+Back
Alt+FWD

- at this point, focus is restored to the results list

[therube]

CUT a file
(do not change focus in the results list)
Alt+Back & PASTE into some other directory

say, oops. OOPS.
you made a mistake so CUT that just pasted file & then

Alt+FWD

now Paste the file back to where it was initially


That operation fails, because when you Alt+FWD - at that point, focus is NOT (not in the results list).

It is not in the results list because when you CUT then Pasted the file, initially, focus was indeterminate, if you will, & then when you CUT, again, & Alt+FWD to Paste it back to where it started from, there was no selection, as you say, so Paste fails.

If selection, focus, remained in the results list, regardless of whether said file existed any longer or not in the list, then the Paste would have worked, without having specifically provided selection, again, into the results list.


In the screenshot above, you see the outline of a "selection", but in fact there is no selection.
The results list is not selected.

[therube]

similarly, but NOT nearly as much of an issue

> searchstring !OADS distinct:

now, if you rename a file (in the results list), adding OADS to it
- so you now have "searchstringOADS"
because searchstingOADS no longer meets the search query
its result is (rightly) removed

- at that point, focus is NOT

where it had been in the results list, it is now in la-la-land
so you have to do something like hit <spacebar> or mouse-click
to provide focus

again, this is not a big deal, in this particular scenario
(but it is the same concept as above)


cases above, it is more of an out of the blue, what you had been
doing, time & time again, all of a sudden is not working anymore
& you're like... what happened?

[void]

The focus should remain in the same position.

Could you please send your Help -> Troubleshooting information.

Maybe there's an advanced setting causing the focus to shift..

1. originally, focus is on "new.txt"
2. i renamed "new.txt" to "525new.txt", at which time (the old) "new.txt" no longer fits the Search criteria, so it is (correctly) dropped form the Results List.

At this point in time, focus is not set.

Thank you for the screenshots therube,

The focus goes to the next item in the same position. (as expected)

Where would you like the focus to go?

[therube]

The focus goes to the next item in the same position. (as expected)

i suppose focus /is/ "there"
but it is not "set", per se
so while you can do some actions
other actions you cannot

you can; <sp> to provide (/set/) focus, FAYT to find something, setting focus
click-the mouse into the Results List to provide focus,
use arrow-keys to provide focus

you cannot Paste - without doing something like above, first
you cannot CUT - without doing some like above, first

so focus is "there", but not "set"
not "set" - even if <sp> would provide focus "to the next item" in the list


if focus were "set" you could do any of the above - including CUT & Paste


now, in some circumstances it is apparent what is going on,
but when you're doing the same sort of actions time & time again,
& then, all of a sudden, the next time you go to perform that
very same action - just as you had a moment before,
& that action suddenly fails, you're left wondering - why?


& if focus is "there", on that next item in the results list,
then why not "set" it there, too?

Everything 1.5.0.1379a adds a select_focus_on_lost_selection advanced setting.

To select the focus when the current selection is lost from an external change:

• In Everything 1.5, from the Tools menu, click Options.
• Click the Advanced tab on the left.
• To the right of Show settings containing, search for:
  select
• Select: select_focus_on_lost_selection
• Set the value to: true
• Click OK.

When enabled, deleting an item will focus and select the next item.



1379a fixes an issue with focus_next_after_delete for folder indexes.
The focus will now correctly move to the next item after deleting a file/folder from a folder index.



1379a removes the select_new_focus_on_focus_lost advanced setting.
This setting did nothing.
