Multi Commander > Feature Requests and Suggestions
What do YOU want to see in the next major version

Hi
I really like some of the features that you have put into MC (e.g. showing junctions, keyboard customizations, etc.).
I always keep the file / folder listing to "list view". One thing I would like to suggest as an improvement is in the list view: the list of files and folders is wrapped using the tab stop headers and is not dynamically adjusted based on the size of the file / folder names. This produces either shortened file names in some folders or too much white-space in other folders. I am attaching a screenshot showing a wrapped list with lots of white space.
Another related improvement is to save the sorting order (between app restarts) in the list view - currently, it reverts to sorting by name.
Thank you,
Mahesh

like Midros, flat view is quite handy :
meaning to be able to see all the contents of a folder including subfolders and files inside them, in a single panel. this way you can select files in many folders to be opened at once (and using the "To clipboard" feature on them).
And
A command to apply a ShellExecute on the file to allow default Windows file handling (in custom actions at least, as a plain File menu entry at best :) )
Anonymous:
I would like to have the opportunity in the configuration menu to choose how many rows I want to have displayed in the button window and that by standard only the first button row with the F-keys should be displayed.
Especially on 16" widescreen notebook displays too much space is wasted with the big button window and in my opinion the other three rows are not necessary.
Besides it is a little bit inconvenient to have to edit a configuration file in order to achieve that.

Im currently compiling the result of the request here and from mail and will post the shortly.
First I want to comment on some of the issue and suggestions named here. some of them are just bugs and some are fixed in v2.5.1

--- End quote ---
This is a bug. And if you can provide me with a example case where this can be recreated I will look into that.
--- Quote from: midros on June 22, 2012, 16:53:27 ---2. an easy way to select non consecutive files using the keyboard
for e.g. in win explorer you hold down the ctl key, then move down with arrow key and select individual files with space key
3. an option in picture tools to resize or compress
either in terms of percentage (10 - 30 - 50 %) or in a few predefined resolutions (small - medium - large)
4. change of the arrow behavior during rename function
I explain. after you press "rename" or f2, the selected ......

2. Im note sure what you mean with this.
3. You mean like a quick zoom feature. pressing shortcut x and it wlil got to 10% and pressing y it will got to 20 % ?
Or do you mean that it should resize and save the image to disk ?
4. This is fixed in v2.5.1
--- Quote from: bojann on June 19, 2012, 16:17:02 ---- also drive drop down list and icons on the right (parent folder, root, ...) are too big
- scrolling file list with elantech touchpad is impossible. I dont know the reason, but scrolling in all other applications is working fine except in multicommander. I dont have another laptop to test on, so I dont know if other touchpad brands work better.
--- End quote ---
Icons are to big ? really they are 16x16. All other complains have been that they are too small.
scrolling, Well I don't really know why this is happening. I do not have a device like that so I can not test it.
Anyone else have this problem ?
--- Quote from: tpr on June 19, 2012, 08:32:41 ---- Custom icons for filetypes (File Type Setup) - with relative paths support
- Drive buttons instead of drive drop-down (explorer panel)
- Fix: "${mcinstallpath}" is inserted in the File Type Setup if you click on "${mcpath}"
- Removal of inactive frame border (explorer panel) - kinda annoying, feels like the inactive panel is active
--- End quote ---
Custom icons for the filetype, Hmm Might be possible to add. But with if you got .txt defined for a viewer and another for editor. what icon should it show ?
Drive Buttons can be shown in the explorer panel. but the drive dropdown will also be there. But a request to make that optional is on the list
${mcpath} problem is fixed in v2.5.1
A test for removal av the active border highlighting has been added in v2.5.1
type the command ":activeframe_disable" in the command line field to activate it (it will NOT remember the state between restart at the moment)
Is this what you looking ?
--- Quote from: Jungle on June 17, 2012, 19:30:38 ---3. Allow multiscript to execute internal and custom commands (those created via User Defined Commands).
As i see now it is impossible to execute e.g. Edit action from a script.
--- End quote ---
3. Added in v2.5
--- Code: ---MC.RunUserCmd
--- End code ---
and
--- Code: ---MC.RunCmd
--- End code ---
be careful so you do not create a script that call it self. :)
in v2.5.1
--- Code: ---MC.Edit , MC.View
--- End code ---
was added.
List of Custom Commands are now in the doc. (all descriptions not 100% done yet)

Hi!
We know that Multi-Rename extension was made for the purpose of mass renaming files and folders. It would be very great to use the same naming technology in copy/move window in field which is used to specify the output folder to create automaticly new folders. For example I've got a lot of photos and I want to move them to specific folders. So I can use some of multi-rename tags (e.g. the date of take photo) and Mutli Commander will create new folders and move my files to the folders with this date in accordance with images tags. :D
Thank you very much for Multi Commander.
