Title: [FIXED] problem with text speed in manager
Post by: duci on May 16, 2012, 08:52:00
Hello,

I found a problem with text appearing in text box which you can find above the "Name" column in both panels. It is in grey or blue colour depends on which panel is currently focused. When I change a directory (this happens very quickly) I expected that text will change very quickly as well but sometimes it takes one or one and half second. It is very strange and I don't know why it happens. Thanks for your answer.

The "Current Path Field" ?

It is kind of by design. It is only updated if the new location is browsed and updated successfully an if the file system is slow or computer very busy/slow it can be a minor lag.

Might be possible to optimized it a bit and make the lag a bit smaller.

Yes, that is "current path field"
I have windows 7, 4-cores CPU and 4 GB of memory and I don't think that my system is busy in that moment. Currently I found the reason, when I have more files in one directory 100 or more (600 in my case), some XLS files etc. so in that time when I change a directory and go back to previous there is a time lag in current path field. I tried to remove all of the files from that directory and then it was faster almost immediately,  but when I put these files back it will happen the same situation the current path field is slower 1-2 seconds. D.

I see a small lag if I got around 5000 files.

But only sometimes. Strange I will take a look at it..

Btw. Try Turning of Overlay icons under
Menu > Configuration > Explorer Panel Settings

Found the problem. The path is changed. it is just not redrawn as soon as it can be. It is redrawn when the process of getting icons is finished.

Yes, that's a problem. I turned off "Overlay icons" option and it is better then before. I guessed that there is still process in progress which takes a time and then the path name was retype/changed. Thanks
