"Add/Modify Favourite" dialog

1.  When i try to add new favourite, there is random text in "Name" and "Path / URL" fields (there may be unreadable symbols or filenames)

2. There is no caret in the edit fields and it is impossible to change focus via mouse - only Tab button works

3. Staus/Info text is not cleared when going to "Add new Section" dialog

4. There's no Status/Info text when deleting Section

---

5. Reload function in Text Viewer doesn't work. Auto reload works OK.

Support and Feedback / Unable abort copy operation while it's preparing

« on: December 26, 2012, 10:58:59 »

1. Start copy operation of large directory (e.g. Program Files)
2. Start second copy operation of other large directory (e.g. Windows) and add it to existing queue
3. Go to copy operation dialog and try abort operation while it is preapring

Result: operation can not be aborted until preparing is finished.

Feature Requests and Suggestions / Move color settings to its own category

« on: December 26, 2012, 09:57:04 »

Now there are 2 settings categories: Core settings and Explorer panel settings.

I suggest adding third category for only color settings.

P.S. Maybe other settings should be reorganized too.

List view navigation bug (like already mentioned). Video attached.

P.S. Why sliding effect is used in splitting panels szie (View > Split size) instead of immediate change?

I figured out why list view mode is not remained. It is because i disabled Remember open paths option.

Changing view mode to List Mode should be saved between restarts.

AFAIR, list mode remained after restart. But now it is not saved.

1. If you want multiple file columns view, switch to List View mode. But it is lost after exit.
2. If you want different set of columns, you should 'Customize columns...' (in column popup menu), then 'Set current layout as default'

You may use Internal command line parameters.
Maybe also custom commands can be used, but i'm not sure.

If you have a wide monitor then you will probably not shrink the program so much so that icons disappear.

Yes. I've faced that situation on clean system with 4:3 monitor and no video drivers. Indeed it is probably rare situation.
I just look at all that ribbon software and wonder why so much horizontal space is not used. Well, maybe i use that software in a wrong way

Concerning p1. Indeed it is a minor issue. But i've already mentioned that monitors become wider, so maybe vertical panels/elements could be used somewhere?

Support and Feedback / [BUG] Changing file and folder state colors

« on: November 07, 2012, 08:27:40 »

This happens with clean installation.

1. Go to Explorer panel settings > Colors
2. Check 'Use file specified background color'
3. Choose e.g. File and Foldet state colors > Files  > Selected (bk. is white, text is red)
4. Uncheck 'Use default background color'
5. Press [Invert] (sample shows bk. red and text white)
6. Press [OK]. You'll see that bk. color is now red, but text color is black instead of white

1. When drive combos enabled for explorer panel and MC window size is quite small, buttons (tree, root etc) are not visible.

I see 3 ways to resolve this.
  a) Additional button (like arrow button in old MS Office toolbars) may appear which shows something like popup menu with inaccessible buttons
  b) Bar wrap, i.e. buttons which don't fit bar width should be shown at next line
  c) Additional toolbar (like drive bar)

2. Current file info. This was already suggested but it is especially actual now because of list mode.

In list view mode you can't see current file info (size, date, attr ...), so maybe a section in status bar can be used for that?

Support and Feedback / [Bug?] Remember open paths

« on: October 25, 2012, 10:15:01 »

I switched to list view and saved it as default layout. But if Remember open paths option disabled, after start Explorer panel has Detailed view. Is it a bug or by design?

1. I have Tabs in left panel, a. D:\abcd 2. E:efcg. on my right panel I have a. E:\hiij, E:\klmn, E:\opqr. I wish to set this as my start option. In other words I want these to open when I start MC.

You may create autostart file and pass it as command line parameter.

3. When cursor stays on a file, it changes by displaying line with an underline (without changing color). If possible, I would like to change color of whole line to indicate that cursor is there.

You can change text/background color for focused files/folders in Explorer panel options > Colors.
