Accessibility options

#1 Post by clanman » 15.11.2022, 12:52

With or without knowing it, freeCommander is fairly accessible however everything can be improved.

It could be said the following items could be considered accessible options
Themes
Font size within different areas
Icon sizes
File colour based on type
Selected item colour

All of these relate to visual difficulties. I would like to see something for those in our community with physical difficulties (one arm, arm in a sling and so on).

I would like to suggest the option to have a button or tick box or something else that would allow the selection of multiple items without the need to use shift or control keys.

I have spent the past few days checking out NC mode and yes it does do the "sticky" very well however I feel it changes a lot of other things in ways that makes FreeCommander act like a non-native windows app.

I still like the option to add an additional column that does the sticky function of NC mode leaving everything else unchanged.

I have the same caveats in regards to those changes

How about ading some icons / buttons that would turn on and off the sticky function? Thus acting as a virtual down-pusher for the CTRL and SHIFT key?

This would help with mass selections and such
