Breadcrumbs, Scripts, etc.

[Stance]

To make breadcrumbs perfect, they should of course be equipped with additional popup functionality for subdirectories, known from ShortPopUp, menuApp and the like, so you can also switch to directories located in a lower hierarchy level.

3. [...] What could be even more intuitive, simple and fast is to have a mouse-over feature over path
segments that will generate a tooltip-type list of the folders in link form.[...]

"A mouse-over feature over path segments" -even without a click
So many excellent ideas. A combination of these two features would beat the rest.

Christian Ghisler (Author) gives a small overview of his work in progress:

Babelfish translation

My translation:
- Unicode-Integration: Almost done, bugfixing now
- "Breadcrumb bar": Almost finished
- Categories for FTP-servers
- Return in descript.ion: Finished, but no feedback from producer of 4nt
- CD Burning Capabilities: At the beginning, the old plugin is functioning in v7.5 but not the new plugin.

One last (but not least) point is not in your list ...

- Fixing Bugs: There's still a lot to be done.

The problem with the bugs: They usually take a LOT of time to fix (hours to days per bug), and new bugs are reported here every day...

Hi!!

Can you please post a (teaser) screenshot off for example the new FTP Connection window or the Breadcrumb implementation???


Greetz,

DR...

Sorry, that's too early. The ftp connection window will get custom icons only when I start the private beta test, currently it uses the blank paper sheet icons used in TC itself for files without an association, and normal folder icons.

The breadcrumb bar looks like a normal path, only when it's used it will look differently, so it's not easy to make screenshots...
