Looking for Software Feature from Old Days (OS)

[fmgtech]

I'm not exactly sure how to describe what I am looking for, but if I remember correctly this worked under OS 9.

If for example you have a long list of items or jpegs that you are uploading to say eBay. You click on the first one to upload and select it and then it uploads. You go back for the second one but it takes you back to the top of the list, but the one you want is further down, so you have to scroll each time to get to the next image. Does this make sense.

I do remember that this feature worked in an earlier OS. The thing that comes to mind was called Finder Integration or True Finder Integration. Anyone remember this and is there anything that will accomplish this under Leopard.

Thanks.

TFI was Stuffit's name for their Magic Menu and Archive via Rename components.

I believe that selecting the last item opened in a dialog box is done at the application level. It's up to the programmers to implement it.

In your scenario, I'd command-click on each item that I wanted from the list so that all of the items would be uploaded together.


If you want more power than that, Default Folder X may give you what you're looking for. I think that under some circumstances the recent folders list jumps to the last-opened file from a given folder.

The way I read your post, it sounds like you want it to make you scroll all the way down...is that what you're actually saying?

It makes me scroll all the way down each time, or at least scroll down to my next selection, and this is what I don't want. I want it to open where I selected the last item, whether that is at the top or bottom or in between. Kind of hard to describe but I think the previous post covers it.
