Yes, perhaps a good feature...

:) Hello Pierre,

- This could be interesting for image-folders having a lot of sub-directories…

- This binds to create a “flat” display (like "Branch View" in Total Commander); hence, this might be treated very carefully, because whether one clicks accidentally on the root of a big drive, all files of that drive will be called to be displayed as thumb-nails! This could cause a pretty mess, with regard to the necessary amount of needed memory :P

- So, I would support such a feature but it requests well defined limitations; for instance : can't work on the root of a drive…

:mrgreen: Kind regards,
Claude

It would be helpful if some folders could be excluded with a black list like "thumbs" or "preview". Or if I could restrict it to a searching depth in the directory structure.

I agree with all the above suggestions.
There definitely should be a file type and subfolder depth filter.
(to exclude for instance RAW or TIFF or other files)
I also would find useful to be able to toggle on/off title bars for each folder, as in Picajet for example.

Thanks for a great software
