Occasionally I need to look at several html files in a directory several
layers deep. I use Firefox. Using Cmd-O opens the selection window in
which I can work down to the desired directory (folder) and pick the file
to display.
When I want to look at the next file in that same location, Cmd-O doesn't
remember where it was last, and makes me drill down all over again to the
same needed directory. For more than a couple of files, this is a real
annoyance.
Is there a way either to have the Open-file window remember its last
position, or not disappear when the file selection is made? Thanks.
For it to not forget where you left it will probably require a coding
change - and that change would probably be to comment some code out of
the Mac build that re-asserts the (wrong) current location every time
the file selector presents.
In many applications, you can select multiple files in the open dialog
by clicking the first and then command-clicking each additional one. It
might work in Firefox. (It works in BonEcho/G5.)
Oh, thanks for the elucidation. I was afraid of that, but hoped it was
not true. Seems like a pretty silly way to code it, without an option to
modify the behavior. Oh well.
