Rename Find-Files Load/Save tab to 'Filter Manager'

Post by *eugensyl »

According with this topic I will transform a supposed bug into a suggestion.

Load/Save tab from Find Files dialog box it's seem to be obsolete and should be renamed into "Filter Manager", as it is.

Line into lng file:
5602="General\nAdvanced\nFilter Manager\nPlugins"

This new tab name is more clear and intuitive for what it does and can be easy explained.

Also it would be nice to find in help file a separate section "Filters":
- where can be used
- how can be used

Thanks!
My Best Wishes,

Eugen

I disagree. It's Load/Save of both searches and filters.

Of course, you have the last word and I respect that.

But you load or save only the filter not the search. The meaning, "save search list" it's closer than "save search" when you want to save a search session. Other else it's a filter save/load/delete.

Anyway, I can change my self my language file. So anyone else.

Filter Manager it's a powerful tool and I appreciate it. My point of view about this tool is that is not enough described and promoted. You have a lot of criteria for allowing or not allowing and that is great.
Please search the forum and you will see how many users, most advanced, ask for a problem and they find the solution with filters combinations.


Thanks for your answer.
My Best Wishes,

Eugen
