Suggestion regarding the "Find in this folder"-custom action to improve UX for the thunar package.
Current situation
"Find in this folder" will trigger
catfish --path=%f. That means: "open catfish on the currently selected path, where "currently selected path" means either of the two:
- If there is folder selected, open the path to inside that folder
- If there is nothing selected, open the path to the currently open folder
Suggested behavior:
Change command to
catfish --path=%d(open catfish with the path of the currently viewed (open) folder)Reason:
- I would say this is the expected behaviour for the general user.
- The perception of "this" in "Find in this folder" seems to be stronger towards the currently viewed folder than the currently selected folder.
