After remove selected files (I usually use shift-del) Thunar resets pointer to null (?) — i.e. begin of directory listing (down arrow put selection on the first file. That is inconveniently if working from keyboard in muddle-end of multi-page (5 and more pages) directory listing. At the same time: if I just select a file in thunar and after that remove it from another application (for example Terminal), I find selection on the last file before selected (and removed) one. It would be pretty, if thunar always handle selection in the second way, putting selection to the last file in list before first selected (and removed): both at the time, when file is removed by external application and when it's removed by thunar itself.
No file is selected due to this commit: https://git.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/commit/?id=1ba522fd9a7defb174ed67b40d6d9ba838ba665c
This bug is already fixed this branch: https://github.com/alexxcons/thunar/tree/ReplaceGtkAction to be merged hopefully soon Note that detailed view seems not to suffer from this bug.
