Open search result context menu with menu key

Open JUSTIVE opened this issue 3 years ago • 5 comments

I think using the context menu key after I pressed the up/down arrow to focus on a list of searched items should pop up a context menu of the focused item, not the input search bar.

Here it works as it should. What you have is only shown if I click with the right mouse button inside of the search field

Oh, the snap of what I'm experiencing in my environment. after navigating through searched items with up/down arrows, the context menu key pops up context menu on the search field.

I didn't know that Shift-F10 works as a context menu key, but good to hear that

Currently, Shift-F10 brings up only a limited context menu, and it's also a context menu for the text/input box only, not the search results themselves. Ctrl-Shift-F10 is typically the keyboard shortcut used to bring up the traditional right-click context menu on file/folder selections (this works in Everything, as well).

Would it be possible to implement a keyboard shortcut (like Ctrl-Shift-F10) for accessing the right-click context menu of the highlighted search result items?

This feature will be available in the 1.3.1 release.
