Support and Feedback / Re: Can you hide some of the buttons?
« on: August 16, 2011, 17:58:05 »
With Ctrl+B you can hide/show the entire button panel.
If you want to change how many button (rows and columns) the button panel should show need to edit the configuration for that manually.
Menu > Help > Go to > Config Folder
Select "MultiButtons.xml"
Select Menu > Tools > Text Conversion > To Windows Format (CRLF)
Then edit the MultiButtons.xml file.
the second line in that file contains the rows and cols. change them
You can change that to 1 or 2 rows if you want to have less buttons.

Feature Requests and Suggestions / Re: Typing first letter of file/folder name
« on: August 06, 2011, 14:25:03 »
Maybe it is possible to make. Right now it will go to what ever you type. if you type "MyFFF" it would find MyFFFile.txt for example. it might not be possible if it would move to next file if same letter are pressed. It might be possible to tweak this a bit. I will give it more thought, and see what I can do
