Copying dialog issues and suggestions

Post by Dreamer »

- Copying is not working with ctrl+c/ctrl+v, only drag & drop works

- When using drag & drop, copy of the file is created instead of dialog to overwrite the file

- Minor - While copying, when moving a dialog, the content is frozen

- I'd change the Source / Destination path form from:
"res\folder1\folder2\imagename.jpg" to:
"D:\...lder1\folder2\imagename.jpg"

Suggestions:

- Minimize button to minimize dialog and main window
- Pause button to toggle pause/resume
- Background button to copy in background

Yes, like xnView 1.97
- Minor - While copying, when moving a dialog, the content is frozen
You have not a dialog box?
- I'd change the Source / Destination path form from:
"res\folder1\folder2\imagename.jpg" to:
"D:\...lder1\folder2\imagename.jpg"

It's very old topic, copying is working now.

Yes, just the content of a dialog is frozen - while holding the left mouse button, but it's just a minor issue, when I release it, it's OK.

"res\folder1\folder2\imagename.jpg" to:
"D:\...lder1\folder2\imagename.jpg"

It's just a suggestion, currently if the whole path can't be displayed, it would be better to always display a drive letter - which is more important than a small part of the path - and then the rest of the path, for example, if the path is:

"D:\Pictures\folder1\folder2\imagename.jpg"

Currently the path is displayed like this:

"res\folder1\folder2\imagename.jpg"

...but I suggest to diplay a drive letter and the rest of the path:

"D:\...lder1\folder2\imagename.jpg"
