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 ?
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
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.QuoteI 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.
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.
Where do s.493-499 lines in Application.MultiCommander Core used?Used in Menu Customization. Context menu for the tree list where you build up a user menu.
Btw, why are Shortcuts again included in text? I thought they are now added automatically.Only for the Menu Editor. They are not customizable.
If you want a long list if bookmarks you can create that easy with user commands that you add to the menu.QuoteIn the meanwhile there is Hotpaths, Buttons in the Button Panel, QuickLaunchBarThe UI functionality should be easy to decide just by looking at any popular web browser. Most of them handle bookmarks in very similar ways, and they ended up that way because it's what works out best for most people. Same thing here. But I guess you mean implementation decisions.
Good to know it's in the works though, and those alternatives are probably good enough in the meantime.
It is not magic , Report bugs about the places that are wrong and it will be fixed. Nobody says anything it will not be fixed.QuoteYes some translation are missing for the Swedish language files. So when running with Swedish you still get a lot of English.Actually, I am running the program in English. By "Swenglish" I meant poorly translated English.
1. The Favorites/Bookmarking function. I see this is already in the list of suggested improvements. Very good to see it as number one on the list. I'd just like to stress that it's very important to fix this, it's the most glaring gap in the tool at the moment imho. The existing "Hot Paths" feature is useful, but with only 10 paths, non-editable and a flat structure it is too limited (apologies if I am missing something). For a bookmarking system worth its salt it's essential to have editable bookmarks in a tree structure, with similar functions to any browser out there. I don't think it's essential that each and every one of them be accessible from an individual keyboard hotkey, sticking to this philosophy is just going to put unnecessary limitations on your design.Yes a better favorite system is under design. But there are many ways to do that and the decision on exactly how it should work has not been completed yet. But it is one of the top new things to add next.
2. I see some "Swenglish" here and there, and some language inconsistencies that should be fixed eg. selecting "Vertical Layout" in fact selects something that many people, myself included, would call Horizontal. Maybe some people see it the other way around. I'm not sure which camp is in the majority. In fact, this difficulty could be neatly avoided by having a toggle function instead: "Toggle Vertical/Horizontal layout". That would always be correct whichever way you look at it.Yes some translation are missing for the Swedish language files. So when running with Swedish you still get a lot of English. Specially in features that been added in the latest couple of releases. That is because it is me that fixes the Swedish files and I been too busy fixing bugs and adding features. But If you want you can fix some by using the built in language editor and then just press Export and send be an update of the language files.
3. This is a function I would use once in a blue moon (though we did in fact have a blue moon the other day ha ha), thus low priority and not a big issue: The animation that happens when changing View->Split size to another setting can be a little annoying. It was very slow and clunky-looking on one computer, but quicker and OK on another. I'd prefer to turn this animation off. (apologies if it is already possible to turn off, I haven't checked through everything yet)Might remove it if I get some time over.
