Improvement for UI of FindFiles

Post by autocart »

Hi all,
The pictures show what I have in mind as improvement for the FindFiles user interface (1st one: current state, 2nd one: my suggestion).
Admittedly the space on the right side might run out quickly, if there is more input made to the UI.
But then I would suggest a scrollable list/textbox or similar. It would not be perfect but at least give a better overview than the way it is now.

Any comments?

Regards, Stephan

Just in case you missed that (kind of hidden) feature: Right clicking onto the tab header already toggles the corresponding checkbox.

I also didn't know that. Thanks for the tip!

Hm, good point. I'll think about it...

Tip for something similar: When click "Popup" on the Report tab right after a search you will get a search report if "Path (Find Settings)" is ticked.
