Peek: previewed file should be selected in Explorer

Open philpav opened this issue 9 months ago • 1 comments

Description of the new feature / enhancement

It would be useful to change selection to the file that's being previewed, like it's handled in Quicklook.

Scenario when this would be used?

When previewing many files, I would like to easily locate the previewed file in order to perform subsequent tasks with it. Currently, I have to check the file name in Peek so I can locate it in the Explorer.
