Desired GUI Enhancements
Desired GUI Enhancements
5Septermber2009
Greetings.
I have encounter FC as a PE plugin and would like
to use FC as a portable app (& eventually a daily app).
I am a fan of Nikos Bozinis freeware -
xplorer² and even the older, dormant 2xExplorer.
I run both with window heights of about 200.
The 2x² utilities have highly customizable GUIs.
2x is not multitab, so I can fit 7.5 lines of files.
x² is multitab, so I can fit 6 lines of files.
(I could run x² without multitabs & then would fit 7.5 also.)
I would like to run FC with a height of 200 but cannot
because I cannot toggle off the drive bar nor the other bar
at the bottom of FC. I think it would be to FC's enhancement
if users could toggle off/on the drive, tab & all other bars.
Thank you for a great product & your consideration.
If one already can toggle these bars, someone please reply/advise.
Thank you.

Greetings.
Thanks for the reply.
I'm looking forward to the next FC version ...
I've used the AHK "WinSet, Region" feature
to (somewhat) customize the FC GUI.
It seems to me that FC could enhance the column customizations.
Is anyone familiar with AudioShell 1.3.5?
AS 1.3.5 adds numerous columns with audio info
to the WinExplorer list of available columns.
These columns are also available in the x² list of available columns
but not the FC list of available columns.
It seems to me FC would be enhanced
if these columns were part of the FC list of available columns.
Also, x² has a "Size on Disk" column option - which is,
as far as I know, totally unique to x².
I find this "SoD" column is immensely useful.
The only other way to see "SoD" is to F12 (or Alt-Enter) the properties -
one at a time for each file. Having a "SoD" saves me tons of time.
Thanks again.

Greetings.
I guess the next FreeComm release is behind schedule?
Is there or will there be a way for FC to NOT display
the file extension in the name column?
XP has the "Hide known file extensions" option,
but FC seems to always show the extension in the name column ...
Any helpful replies/insights appreciated.
Thank you.

Re: Desired GUI Enhancements
"Size on Disk" and name without extension are already possible in the preview version.

I don't know of any way to assign keyboard hotkeys to toggle
View System Files
View Hidden Files.
Is/Would that be possible?

Re: Desired GUI Enhancements
You can hide system files generally at Extras > Settings > View - Show system files (uncheck)
and show hidden files at Extras > Settings > View - Show hidden files (check).
To show sometimes system files rightclick on Statusbar and check "Show system files".

Re: Desired GUI Enhancements
Merci viel Mal!
I already had Show Hidden checked and Show System Unchecked
but didn't know about the StatusBar right click!
btw ... I assigned Alt-Shift-T to the Hide/Show Hidden/System option,
but the hotkey didn't toggle anything ...
I've never (not yet) had a FreeComm hotkey problem.
Does the Hide/Show Hidden/System hotkey work for you? others?
I've deleted the Alt-Shift-T hotkey ...

I am trying out XEß today.
I cannot find this feature in XEß ... is it somewhere else? or gone?ralfso wrote:To show sometimes system files rightclick on Statusbar and check "Show system files".
There is a new "Show/Hide Hidden/System files" hotkey option, but it seems to not work.
My "Search" hotkey is not working either ...
Is there any way to toggle Show InfoTips other than go into Settings?
Is or will it be possible to hide the StatusBar?
FCXEß has the ability to add many custom columns and has the Condition setting.
Is it possible to tell FCXEß to format all folders under My Documents, for example, a certain way.
There is the All subfolders <sub> Condition, but it seems one has to specify each & every subfolder!?!
I'm hoping there is or will be a way to have FCXE apply custom columns to all subfolders under a given "Root" folder.
Otherwise how is one supposed tell FCXE to apply certain custom columns to dozens or hundreds of subfolders?
