Is this a bug with the folders panel

Post by vsub »

For example I use the seach "dc:today" and uncheck the "subfolders" checkbox
When I click on "Everything" nothing is shown until I enable the subfolder checkbox
When I click on my C and D drive,it shows the main folder and that's expected
But when click on a white space,everything shows the folders from both drives as if the subfolder checkbox is enabled and I choose "Everything"

This is by design.
Clicking a white space will clear your selection.

All files/folders are shown when there's no selection.
The subfolders option is ignored.

Ctrl+Space can also be used to toggle the selection.



What is your expected behavior here? Should Everything show no results when there's no selection?

Oh ok,if that's intended behaviour then thats fine
I was expecting that everything will now nothing if nothing is selected

I guess there is white space only if you have the tree collapsed so that there is space between the bottom-most folder and the bottom of the Folders pane? Or is there some other place to click to clear the selection rather than making a new selection?
