Option to Change the Column shown when Viewing by list

Post by kluv »

In the List view it only shows the Name Column. It would be nice to have the option of either sorting or viewing a column you click on.

i.e. Clicking on the Size Column can either

Sort Name Column by size
or
Show Size Column

Thank you,

Horst

Thats already the way it works.
You can click on any of the column headers and it will be sorted by this.

Right, that's listed as option 1 but it would be also beneficial to have the option to see that actual column and not just the Name column.

I don't get it.

There is Configuration | General | Sort and Rename | Sort | [x] Show sort headers in all views

and you can sort by size (even if the size entries aren't visible) if you click on that column header...

Personally I like the list view over the detail view but sorting by size with the size entries not being visible doesn't make much sense to me.

Also, using the size column is just an example to try and explain what I'd like to see.

Thanks for your time.

He would like to see another column next to the "Name" column in the "List" view. I can see the thrill, but I don't see the money. It would be a big effort for something pretty exotic.
