The left and right keys behave differently on Windows and Mac when comparing folders. I think the Windows behavior is much more consistent and actually provides more options, so it should be applied by default to the Mac version too.
In Windows:
On Mac:
The key shortcuts on the Mac actually force me to use the mouse, which is annoying, and don't implement all the behavior supported by the Win version.
Would you consider applying these Windows shortcuts by default on the Mac?
In Windows:
- left and right move the selection from side to side without expanding or collapsing
- shift+left and shift+right do the same thing but also add the option to select BOTH sides, which is important for drilling down with Set as Base Folders and the like
- ctrl++ and ctrl+- expand and collapse nodes
On Mac:
- left and right expand and collapse nodes, usually (I believe that sometimes it behaves differently but can't reproduce it right now)
- ctrl++ and ctrl+- do nothing
- there's no way to move the selection from side to side with the keyboard, and no way to toggle between selecting one side and both sides
The key shortcuts on the Mac actually force me to use the mouse, which is annoying, and don't implement all the behavior supported by the Win version.
