Support and Feedback / copy or move
« on: November 23, 2012, 03:22:21 »
when i drag a file or folder to another directory in the same drive (e.g source and target are on the Drive D), the operation performed is 'Move'.Is there a way so that when i do the same thing I will be given a choice whether to move or to copy?Actually, I think I've seen this once..I just can't make it happen again..maybe i changed some of the settings.

Support and Feedback / desktop
« on: November 19, 2012, 06:35:00 »
how can i make a folder that contains all the items in the desktop?I know there is a desktop folder in my account. The problem is it doesn't contain all the shortcuts. Some are contained in another desktop folder in the public folder(for all users).

Support and Feedback / bar above status bar configuration
« on: November 19, 2012, 06:18:01 »
is there a way to configure the bar above the status bar?the one that shows the number of files and folders, how many are selected, the one that contains the filter field..actually, not the bar itself..just the display of number of files and folders, but if the bar itself is configurable then I want to learn it too..

« on: November 16, 2012, 12:54:09 »

« on: November 16, 2012, 11:25:35 »
is there a way to change the order of the main window toolbars(standard, file commands, and drives)?another thing is the toolbars are always above the command line bar, can i change their position and put the toolbars below the command line bar?or maybe put them beside each other?

Feature Requests and Suggestions / 'View' menu additional items
« on: November 16, 2012, 07:38:49 »
please add 'Show Hidden Files' and 'Show System Files' items in 'View' menu..i quite often enable/disable this two and I think it's appropriate to have them in the 'View Menu'.. and also, please add them in Internal Commands so user will be able to easily make User Defined Commands for each of them..sorry for posting too much about hidden and system files,

Feature Requests and Suggestions / rename directory in its tab
« on: November 14, 2012, 00:35:58 »
instead of closing a directory then renaming it..allowing rename on the tab itself will reduce the work..this can be done by adding a 'rename' item in the resulting list of options(the one with 'close tab', 'duplicate tab', etc..items) when right clicking a tab..if this won't work then a 'Rename' item in 'File' menu will do..another option is by slow double click on the tab..just like renaming a normal file or folder..

38
a request for option for each of these two..one for setting the maximum length of a tab and another for minimum length..

39
currently, filtering and  quick search works only on files/folders name columns..please add the feature to allow filter and quick search in other columns to..like the dates(last modified and date created)...

Feature Requests and Suggestions / automatic rename on conflict
« on: November 13, 2012, 04:13:51 »
asking for an option that when enabled, on copying a file to a directory that already contains a file with the same name, the new file will be automatically renamed to filename(2) or filename2, etc..

Feature Requests and Suggestions / color filters by size
« on: November 13, 2012, 04:05:28 »
this helps in knowing the big and 0 byte files and folders fast..particularly i want to set background colors so that i would easily know those that are more than a specific size or are 0 bytes..then i can identify them even without using calculate folder size..

Support and Feedback / custom date display
« on: November 13, 2012, 03:48:37 »
I want to display the dates as mm-dd-yyyy hh:mm AM/PM, is there a way to do this?i've looked into options i know in the settings but none matched this

Support and Feedback / right click context menu 'copy' not intercepted
« on: November 13, 2012, 03:27:35 »
is it a natural behavior of MC to not intercept the copy operation done through right click->copy then paste?

44
Support and Feedback / grid lines
« on: November 13, 2012, 03:06:45 »
is there a way to modify the appearance of the grid lines?I didn't find any in the settings(core and explorer panel) but maybe there's another way..i like my current UI configurations and I don't think I'll need the themes I asked about before,MC is beautiful enough for me even without themes..another feature i want to add is the grid lines but they look bit too dark..I want them to look like the grid lines of file managers I used before MC which are less dark and won't snatch my attention from the names and properties of the files and folders..

Feature Requests and Suggestions / <dir> in the extension column
« on: November 13, 2012, 02:22:08 »
i know the common practice is putting <dir> on the sizes column..but maybe it's also acceptable to put it in the extension column, the sizes column is for sizes and the extension column gives you an idea of what type of file is in a specific row..if it's a folder then showing that it's a directory will do the same..I'm only asking for an additional option to do this..not making it the only option..maybe most users still prefer having the <dir> in the sizes column...

Support and Feedback / calculate all sizes of folders in a directory
« on: November 13, 2012, 02:09:27 »
i know this can be done by not putting the focus rectangle on any of the folders in a directory but it's better if there's another menu item or button or the likes of the two that when pressed will show all the sizes of the folders in a directory regardless of the position of the focus rectangle..
if you have selected multiple folders or files in a directory to copy, for example, but then you want to know first the sizes of all of the folders in that directory then you would have to put the focus rectangle to '...'or to any free space, press the 'calculate....'..then you if you want to continue what you want to do..you need to select again those files and folders!..if there's only a button or menu item that will show all of the folders sizes in that specific directory then there'll be no need to repeat the selection process..

Support and Feedback / focus rectangle freezing
« on: November 11, 2012, 06:59:57 »
why is it that the focus rectangle freezes when I enter a 0 byte folder..this is not always the case..this only happens when i enter a folder that i think is related to the system...on ordinary folders there's no problem..they just won't be opened..but on others, the focus rectangle stays at the 0 byte folder and won't move even if i press up,down keys..

« on: November 11, 2012, 06:53:00 »

Support and Feedback / display 0 byte size
« on: November 11, 2012, 06:42:49 »
please add an option to display 0 B in size column for folders with 0 byte size...i have a folder with 3 subfolders and they're all 0 byte(i didn't know since i think they're all created by the system) and when I turned on calculate folder size..nothing was displayed..I thought it was a bug but then I realized that they have 0 byte size..if only 0 was displayed there'll be no confusion..so please..just an option..
