[bug?] *uncheck* "Close window after launch by default" : doesn't work

[Armando]

When that option is checked, I guess that farr should stay open after launching an item. But it doesn't. Even after a restart.

Armando, do you have certain plugin(s)s enabled, such as FarrAltTab? if yes, disable it then try again. see this thread for more info. credits to zhicao for discovering the solution.

Ah, thanks Lanux! I saw the thread but didn't remember that FarrAltTab was also involved... That's too bad. I tend to use it a lot. I guess I'll have to chose between one of both options, in the mean time.

Just in case, here's the related post from the other thread :

pursuant to my thread here, i've found out that another plugin is causing the same problem - FarrAltTab. enabling this plugin also breaks the following:

1. 'Ctrl+Alt+Enter' hotkey to open all search results.
2. '/stayopen' keyword assigned to aliases.
3. 'Launch and stay open' - either via context-menu or hotkey.

BTW, the 'Ctrl+Alt+Enter' hotkey to open all search results still worked for me, even with the FarrAltTab plugin enabled... weird.

hmm.. that means the bugs are not related, i wonder what other factors that could be behind this. btw Armando, did disabling FarrAltTab fixed your problem? anyway, let's keep our fingers crossed that FarrAltTab gets fixed soon.

ok. back after a long day out... 
Actually, after some more testing : ctrl+alt +enter does work when workig with an alias, but not with normal searches. I generally use ctrl+alt+enter with aliases, so I didn't notice it didn't work in other circumstances.

so begins the quest for a bug-fix..
