"show Button Captions" in two lines

Post by CompSystems »

Hello Xyplorer, please show in two lines "show Button Captions", to save horizontal space, many software that have these options, show in two lines

Thanks

Comes in next version. :tup:

Note that you can already now have more caption lines via a tweak:

Code: Select all

      By default you get one caption line. You can get more by tweaking, e.g.:
        ToolbarCaptionLines=2   (legal values: 1 to 4)
But it won't save any horizontal space yet... this will come.

Thanks, I see this idea implemented in the version 18.70.0111, it works very well, the option to separate the name or subtitles in several lines, now we can see more icons with text. :tup:
Great if this same idea could be taken to the file name,Ext, Size, Type, Modified, ...

1 row

Name_____________________Ext___Size____Type______ Modified...
1: xyplorer_18.70_beta.zip----Zip----3.7 MB---Zip----------- Archive 2/03/2018 ...


2 rows

Well, you would see more columns but only half of the files then. Not sure if that's so interesting as a feature...

Only the name divided into rows would be looked at, with the advantage of seeing more columns, the impact will be determined after the implementation, and wait for the comments of use.

Unless you convince Don (admin) of its use beforehand (which doesn't seem to have happened yet) I doubt it will ever get implemented for testing and subsequent comments of use.
