Hi Rene!

Ah. Thanks for the info.
Then the code really does seem to work. My "TheFile" actually does get
selected, but since it's in a crowded folder, it's been scrolled out
of view while the window is still being populated.
I expected that doing it with the kind of messaging Web+ does, Tracker
would take care of that, since it always seemed to work (i.e. the
selected file in the visible area) when "Open containing folder" in
Web+ Downloads window.
But I now had that same scroll-out-of-sight with Web+, so I guess that
is just a limitation. (Though it'd be nice if Tracker kept the
position of a selected file steady in a view while it's being
populated, if you know what I mean...)
Thanks for the quick answer.
Weekend-poodles wave merrily!
