Hi there,

Ive had this problem with mac osx for a while but never bothered to find out if there is another way.

I am going through all my raw photography files deleting junk photos that I don't need. However, if i scroll down 20 spaces and delete that file the selector automatically scrolls back to the top and i lose my space.

I know I can just hold cmd and select as I go down but I can still lose position and it slows my task down. Is there anyway to set it so when I delete a file the selection bar automatically goes to the file above or bellow the files i just deleted?

Hope this makes sense, Thanks !

I actually find that using cmd to select all the items I want to delete is actually faster than individually selecting and deleting each file, so I'm not sure why you find it slower. However, I am not aware of anyway to achieve what you want though.
