Total Commander

I installed the latest one.. I did have a really old one.. (even looked up the problem on their website) But the "Window/Save Windows Position" is grayed out and i can´t click there!.. Is it not somewhere i can just add the setting i want in the ini file?

OMG, where do you try to find "Save Position" command? You should use Configuration - Save Position IN TC MAIN MENU. Plugins of course don't know about TC quick-view settings.

Hehe... sorry man.. now i got it!..Just a bit SBS here.. Tanx MVV.. Now its loud and clear!..How was it the 4th time is a charm? Tanx again..

What do you guys think about the BCB drop down is showing the wrong folders?

What i mean is; If i go with the mouse over a folder should it show the next folders like is do now or the previous folders?

I think i would prefer previous folders.

It shows the "current" directory that that folder is in. Not previous or next...Which to me makes sense.

I just wish there was a [*] button underneath the downArrow click, and when pressed it copies the whole AddressPath to clipboard -- Since it is difficult to slow-click-select it with the mouse now that there is a BCB.

For the copy the address "cm_CopyFullNamesToClip" i use CTRL+ALT+C so useful.. I just love when i need to save anything to the folder i´m in.. But i would like to have this function when your on ".." it copies the address up to that folder.. and not the error message "no files selected". I still digg your idea, about the * underneath neath...

What about a option what folder it should show in the BCB?.. in the ini file.. because i still feel its wrong.. i would like to go on the last folder and see all the folders on the folder that is under.. Now its like if i´m on the last folder, and its no more folders (underneath) , it don´t have a function.. Thats why i started having this feeling something is wrong..

What you say makes some sense as far as being able to config what pops up with the [down arrow], though not as much as far as clicking on the folder name itself - which no matter what should take you to that directory.

I agree with your suggestions. TC should open in drop-down menu upper-level folder, also according to this it should underline left slash (X:\Folder1\Folder2\) instead of right (X:\Folder1\Folder2\).

Yes, Explorer drop-down menu shows subfolders of folder after which [\] button was clicked but in TC drop-down menu opens not via [\] buttons but via [folder name] button, so it is logical to see here subfolders of parent folder. And if TC will underline folder with left slash, (X:\Folder1\Folder2\), it will match Explorer BCB behaviour.


Also I suggest to change displaying of current path in command-line: to show the first folders of current path when BCB is enabled. The reason: if I have long path, w/o BCB I see its first folders in path bar and its last folders in command-line bar. But with BCB I see last folders in both BCB and cmd-line path bar. So it is better to see in cmd-line path bar first folders of path.

I.e. I'm in folder "C:\Windows\winsxs\msil_system.data.linq.resources_b77a5c561934e089_6.1.7600.16385_ru-ru_3d6f6d6cba11e720":

BCB contents:            // wrote:< msil_system.data.linq.resources_b77a5c561934e089_6.1.7600.16385_ru >

Current cmd-line path contents:            // wrote:5c561934e089_6.1.7600.16385_ru-ru_3d6f6d6cba11e720>

Wanted cmd-line path contents:            // wrote:F:\Windows\winsxs\msil_system.data.linq.resources_b77 >

I already see last folders in path bar and I want to see another path part.



I think '>' symbol may be drawn via label or some new panel, and text in command-line path panel may be aligned to left (if I have BCB turned off, text may be aligned to right as usually).

Or maybe it is good to add ini-setting to switch cmd-line path text alignment (also it is good to change this alignment via mouse click on cmd-line path panel).
