Yosemite: cut items not dimmed when highlighted (i.e. selected)

OS X 10.10, TotalFinder 10.6.17. When I cut items with cmd+x, I tend to expect the items to be dimmed, whether highlighted or not (I believe this was the case back in 10.9, but I don’t have a 10.9 machine to test right now). However, items are not dimmed when highlighted. Compare the following screenshots:

Cut, highlighted: exactly the same as above, no dimming.

This is confusing since there’s no way to tell if the cut is successful unless I deselect the items. This is a minor issue, but hope this gets addressed in a future release. Thanks.
