Very happy you like itsmaragdus wrote:Small surprise? No! This is GREAT surprise! So great that I still can't believe it!
This is a consequence of a bad package I've deployed a couple of releases ago where I had put my own ini files. They are not present when you use FV for the first time. You can simply delete them and put any other that you want.smaragdus wrote:I spotted that some menus are not translated
This will not be an issue. I'll do it.smaragdus wrote:Don't you think it would be logical to swap Tools and Navigate menus in the main tool-bar?
That's all I have, actually. But you can create your own themes (or modify existing ones) by using the SkinEditor available at silverpointdevelopment.com. The tool is very pleasant to use.smaragdus wrote:Are there more themes available?
Can you elaborate a bit?smaragdus wrote:Do you have plans to add integrated search and file verifier in FileVoyager?
I don't get how one connects to a FTP site- I didn't find a built-in FTP Manager. Is WebDAV supported? If not- would it be possible to add support for it?Browsing of disks, folders (real or virtual), shares, archives and FTP/FTPS in one unified way
It's powered by an indexation of the files. Since Windows Vista, files are similarly indexed by the OS by default. I've already begun analyzing the ways I could take advantage of it and it's possible indeed. I just need time.smaragdus wrote:Everything [...] It is lightning-fast and I wonder whether it would be possible to be integrated into FileVoyager as a search engine
Normally, the ESCAPE key closes the Search frame, but I'm not opposed to add CTRL+F as an alternative shortcut.smaragdus wrote:CTRL+F opens Search but it cannot be exited via a hot-key [...] what about the same key combination toggling Search pane On/Off?
It's planned. All the analyze is done. Again, just a matter of time.smaragdus wrote:there are many checksum programs but computing hashes from inside FileVoyager would be handy.
Piece of cake. Recorded in my todo's list.smaragdus wrote:An option to move Tabs on top
You have a similar button with the same behaviour in the Drive Panes (Accessible by clicking the right arrow on both lists). But I suppose you would like it accessible directly, without an intermediate click?smaragdus wrote:Recycle Bin Icon in Main Toolbar- clicking it opens Recycle Bin, right-clicking shows two commands- "Explore Recycle Bin" & "Empty Recycle Bin"
Guess what? It was the behaviour until I was asked, in another forum, to display the menu of the folder when clicking the blank background...Maybe I'll put an option to choose which of the menus must be displayed. Recorded in my todo's list.smaragdus wrote:FVCtxtMenuX64.exe [...] doesn't work right in my opinion- Right-clicking on blank space inside a folder should open Windows Commands- View, Sort by, Group by, Refresh, New, etc.
Due to internal mechanism, I always, always, need to have a focused item. I can't satisfy this requestsmaragdus wrote:Clicking on blank space inside a folder should deselect the last selected item (file, folder).
Absolutely feasible! Recorded in my todo's list.smaragdus wrote:separate "Minimize to Tray" and "Close to Tray"
I have absolutely no idea how to that. Honestly, I think it's far beyond my competences.smaragdus wrote:Mount Disk Image Files (at least ISO files)
I'm very unhappy with my current Favorites management. I plan to rewrite it from scratch. You know the song...It's a matter of timesmaragdus wrote:Now Favorites in Favorites Bar are sorted alphabetically [...] I suggest manual sorting of Favorites in Favorites Manager
Planned...song...=>...time...smaragdus wrote:I would also suggest re-arranging of icons in the Programs Bar via drag&drop.
It's the Application Bar and, my bad! The option exists in the Ribbon, but I missed it in the Main menu...smaragdus wrote:I also suggest a new sub-menu in View->Toolbars->Show or hide the Programs Bar (I don't know how it is called in FileVoyager)- there is "Close" button in it but I don't know how I can restore it if I close it.

FTP Manager is planned. Actually, to navigate an FTP(S), just edit the address bar by clicking the icon or the background (or press ALT+D) and write your FTP address (eg: ftp://ftp.mozilla.com)smaragdus wrote:I don't get how one connects to a FTP site- I didn't find a built-in FTP Manager
Currently no. Need to investigate. Recorded in my todo's listsmaragdus wrote:Is WebDAV supported?
Planned. But I need time -again- to recreate the +100 icons in 32x32.smaragdus wrote:what about an option for customizing the toolbar buttons' size?
Thank youtactictoe wrote:A fantastic software, no wonder why it was featured at freewarefile.com too. I love it and use it lots these days. Thanks for sharing this program with the community.
I don't know what might have triggered the spam guardian. Perhaps it doesn't like the Iberian Peninsula?I hope you had great time in Spain. Summer in Spain is all one needs, as the song goes:
"...Take me to Portugal, take me to Spain
Andalusia with fields full of grain...:
Any news related to FileVoyager? I am asking because the planned new version didn't come out in Augustus.
