Support and Feedback / New tab color from the locked tab, + Forced Tab name

« on: June 02, 2023, 16:56:57 »

Hello,

I have two minor feature requests:

1. When I start to give a name to a Tab, it would be nice to have the text field already prefilled with the current folder name so to avoid typing it in. As of now that field is empty. Naturally, one wants to give the tab the name of the folder, I believe..

2. When the new Tab is created out from the locked tab it inherits the color of that locked tab if this was customised. In my opinion, if the name was not copied, the color should not be copied as well.

Support and Feedback / Re: The MC Backup file without a .zip extension

This happens only if one gives the file name other than MultiCommander_ConfigBackup, I think.

Support and Feedback / The MC Backup file without a .zip extension

« on: May 27, 2023, 05:57:01 »

Dear Mathias,

I noticed, that a new MC backup file is created without a .zip extension. If I still need a new file I must first make a copy of the existing file, rename it, and only then use it as a new backup file.

Feature Requests and Suggestions / Personal registration of a copy of MC

Hello,

Sometimes it is nice to have "your own" personally registered copy of software in return for a donation, for example.

Feature Requests and Suggestions / Re: How to start MC from Shell context menu in the selected folder.

This was a hint to include this option by default as the main file browser in Windows is still Windows Explorer I often need to switch from it to MC.

After some research, I understood that this is not an easy task. The best what I can do is to use "FileMenu Tools" that can start the MC in the current folder but only if MC has not been started yet. If it is started it just opens where it was.

This option is common for FastStone Image Viewer or Far Manager.

Good day!

I want to start MC in the current folder while browsing the files using the standard Windows Explorer. Is that possible?

Feature Requests and Suggestions / Global hotkey to activate Multi Commander

« on: January 26, 2022, 23:04:16 »

Hello,

I miss some global hotkey for opening the Multi Commander from the system tray. Every time I have to click the icon with the mouse. Would love to have something like double Ctrl or similar.

P.S. and for minimizing as well. Many software comes with built-in activation shortcuts, like WizFile for example.

Feature Requests and Suggestions / To highlight the active tab more.

« on: December 20, 2021, 03:25:31 »

Dear Mathias,

In MultiCommander I found everything I need to work with files. But I find it is difficult to tell which tab is active at the moment. I may have 5-10 fixed tabs but all of them look similar to the active one. In my opinion, the active tab should be emphasized more )
