Support and Feedback / Re: Bug with displaying Drives toolbar

« on: September 18, 2012, 17:00:09 »

Strange. because all languages works for me.

When it does not work is when switching language because the show/hide status for the toolbars in the registry [1] is stored with the localized toolbar name.

[1] REG:\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\MultiCommander\SessionConfig\Toolbars\

Support and Feedback / Re: Unpack with Password

« on: September 18, 2012, 15:15:27 »

Zip archives in MC does not handle password protected files yet. (mostly because the password security in standard zip format are very bad and unsecure )

So I do not understand how you can see a dialog asking for password.. That dialog most be from another program.

Well. It only happens if you change language between restarts.

If you set Russian language. Then restarts. Then hide drive toolbar, Then Restart, They are now still hidden.

Support and Feedback / Re: can MC support flat files view

« on: September 15, 2012, 13:22:18 »

No you can now list content like that.

However you can get almost that behavior by open a search for that folder and search for everything.
The result of the search is shown in a flat way.

Tips and Tricks / Re: Go to Sibling Folder Faster

« on: September 14, 2012, 17:36:41 »

No it should work.  It might not work if you have modified to use pageup/down for something else.

It is also using the same sorting that you currently have and if the next item is not a valid folder, it will not go to it.

Feature Requests and Suggestions / Re: the cursor could follow the mouse (new settings)

« on: September 08, 2012, 11:39:21 »

I open directories and files with a single click, I'm used to it very much.
Sometimes I need to mark one file or directory and do some operation with it, since I open files with a single click, I'm not albe to move the cursor to the file with a mouse in Multi Commander, I have to use up and down keys.

I would like the cursor to follow the mouse cursor - it works in Total Commander, if you check the settings 'Open files and directories with a single click'. Please see attached image.

Don't understand why some whats single click. Don't you accidental starts file or goes into folder ? Nevermind. 

So you want an option to that will make it automatically change what file item that is in focus to the file item that you hover above.?

Support and Feedback / Re: switching tabs with left + right arrows?

« on: September 08, 2012, 11:33:51 »

No, the TAB key can not be reconfigured.

and since arrow keys are also used in many other places there would be lots of conflicts between them.

Support and Feedback / Re: Directory junctions on the server - MC can't go there

« on: September 07, 2012, 10:01:40 »

The problem is that MC will resolve the link and go to the link target. But since the link is located on a network folder this does not work.

I will add a settings so that it can be changed, So that it will follow link instead of resolving them while browsing.

Might also need a setting to only allow that on network drives. Because always following link on local harddrive can result in a very strange behavior and you can end up in a never ending loop, for example if you browse the C:\ProgramData folder on Windows7

Feature Requests and Suggestions / Re: Internal Viewer - WordWrap

« on: September 05, 2012, 21:49:56 »

Actually, if I want to select a text longer than the window, and word-wrap is off, the window do not scroll and I can't select this text.
The issue is for horizontal & vertical scrolling.
This is not the behavior I am used to, from notepad, word, notpead++, etc. Is this an expected & wanted behavior ?

That has not really anything to do with wordwrap.
But will add it to the list anyway.

« on: September 05, 2012, 11:35:07 »

Add a registry key under 
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\MultiCommander\
Reg Key/Value  : "HideSplash"  REG_DWORD - value "1"

If you are running the portable version
then edit the file <mc install location>\SessionConfig\Misc\MultiCommander.ini

And add "HideSplash=1" to it

Support and Feedback / Re: Refreshing Units

« on: September 04, 2012, 19:08:01 »

very strange.

Because when F5 (Refresh) is issues, The file system will be rescanned, And it will show the information that is provided by Windows, Why Window is providing invalid content I do not know. Might be because it still has some reference to it so it does not flush it.

I don't know what can cause it to happen and I do not have SD card reader here so I can not test my self.

Support and Feedback / Re: Setting "Standard" Date display format has no effect

« on: September 03, 2012, 21:17:09 »

Ah yes, I can see the difficulty.
(Yes, "Default Date Format For New Tabs" makes it clear, but it would still be more intuitive to find the two settings one beside the other in the tree)

Probably some people will want their individual tab-specific settings to be persistent across app restarts too.

Maybe a new option or two would do it:
 - Apply this setting to:
     o  this tab (yes/no)
     o  other current tabs (yes/no)
     o  future tabs (yes/no)
     Default could be: this tab = yes, other current tabs = no, future tabs = yes

Do not think so.. I would require way to much code changes to make that possible. No, the date format option will probably change in the future to be same for all tabs

Support and Feedback / Re: Setting "Standard" Date display format has no effect

« on: September 03, 2012, 19:15:35 »

Difference between Apply and Save is that Save also close the Settings Page while Apply does not. Allowing you to continue to change settings
 
Date format is probably the only setting that is not applied directly on already opened tab. There is a note about it on the settings page
"Date Display Format (Will not change already open tabs)"

Maybe should say "Default Date Format For New Tabs" ?

And I'm not quite happy my self how it works. So a while a got that setting was change to change all tabs. But a lot of users complained and want the ability to have different format for different tabs and they did not like the new behavior,  So I changed it back.. But I'm considering to change it again to always sync that settings to all tabs.

Sure you change the correct date settings ?

Change date format for current panel
Menu > View > Explorer Panel > Date Format

Change default date format for new tabs
Menu > Configuration > Explorer Panel > Display[tab] > Date /Time Format (Title)
(*) Standard - Full date and time

What profiles gets autoselected ? change that to same settings as normal.

Try enable all the Cache checkboxes in that profile.

it should match correct. But some remote and USB devices get matched wrong. what are you using.

Feature Requests and Suggestions / Re: A couple of suggestions from a new user

« on: September 03, 2012, 10:37:12 »

I got some plans for something better then a just a long list (with or without submenus ) but do not know if I implement it because it would require a lot of time to create. Might just add a boring long list like browsers. Time will tell.

Interesting if there are new concepts on this. But I suspect that if they are really useful we would have seen them in browsers already.

Not really new concepts, but do not think of bookmarks in a File Manager is the same as a WebBrowser.. There are used in completely different ways.

If I were you I'd consider implementing the boring alternative first while thinking about the advanced stuff for later on. For some things boring solutions are, perhaps sadly, the ones that work best for most users.

Maybe.. But it is also what is more interesting for me to implement. Since there is not so much time I can spent on adding new features. I prefer to code something that is interesting.

But since a Menu with items can be created now. maybe just improve that so that can be created easier.

Support and Feedback / Re: Reopening tabs issue in portable mode

« on: September 03, 2012, 10:23:47 »

Config/  Has the settings config fles
SessionConfig/ store configuration that are normally stored in the registry. And that are not vital for the program, Information that are session based.
Like history information for dropdown list and stuff like that, Last windows position, and stuff like that, that are not settings but information that need to be saved between restarts


I will see if I can reproduce the issue with your config files.

Support and Feedback / Re: refresh on c:\ tab will open a new tab,and occasionally crash mc

« on: September 03, 2012, 09:09:46 »

I think the crash part will happen if X was done before the refresh is pressed. The problem is to figure out what X is.

It might be that some sub-folder was also browsed before doing refresh to make it crash. Or some folder need to created/remove, or the filesystem got changed from outside of MC. or something else. I tried a lot of different combination my self. But I'm not able to recreate it either.
