[wish list] Synch Dirs tool's statusbar: show more info

[Valentino]

Sometimes I launch Synch Dirs tool with folders containing big amount files. To select/unselect some files I need to know their location (folder), but due to the big amount of files in this dir and in all dirs in total, it was quite hard (I mean inconvenient) to determine the folder.

Suggestion: currently status bar is almost empty, so why not to show in it the focused file's releative path? Focused file, not selected one, because it may be several files selected.

Just in case, I'll illustrate what I mean

Code: Select all

[Synchronize directories]
C:\RootProjDir       *.*           S:\RootProjDir
<misc buttons and options here>

Name      Size Date  <=> Date Size Name
SubProjDir\SubSubProjDir\
file1.txt                          file1.txt
file2.txt                          file2.txt
                                   file3.txt
                                   file4.txt
file5.txt
SubProjDir\SubSubProjDirWithALotOfFiles\
file1.txt                          file1.txt
...
file10000.txt                      file10000.txt
SubProjDir\AnotherSubSubProjDirWithALotOfFiles\
file1.txt                          file1.txt
...
file10000.txt                      file10000.txt

Files found: 8567

Suggested statusbar:

Code: Select all

Files found: 8567. Focus on: SubProjDir\AnotherSubSubProjDirWithALotOfFiles\

or just:

Code: Select all

Files found: 8567. SubProjDir\AnotherSubSubProjDirWithALotOfFiles\

This feature may be optional (via INI-file) for those who doesn't like it (are there anyone who doesn't like it? ), e.g.

Code: Select all

SynchDirsStatus=0 (current) Files found: 8567
SynchDirsStatus=1 (default) Files found: 8567. Focus on: SubProjDir\AnotherSubSubProjDirWithALotOfFiles\
SynchDirsStatus=2           Files found: 8567. Focus on: AnotherSubSubProjDirWithALotOfFiles\
SynchDirsStatus=5           Files found: 8567. SubProjDir\AnotherSubSubProjDirWithALotOfFiles\
SynchDirsStatus=6           Files found: 8567. AnotherSubSubProjDirWithALotOfFiles\

I will consider it, thanks. One solution in the current version is to press F3 on a file, this displays the file in lister, and also shows its path.

And what about making status bar of sync tool "show..." really "...more info" then?
I suggest an ability of dispalying information like in TC footer (status bar).
