Why another? It could be the same button with three-steps-circling algorythm.
Actually, I'd really like it better with another one. Reason is I usually hide the panel, to get more space for the tree&list. And when i need it, I just hit F12.

But my panel is always "minimized", again to get the most space I can for the tree&list. Besides I got all I need for searching, timestamp, etc
But, for the preview, a bigger panel is very welcome, and then I use the panel "maximized", which means in the tree&list i only have like 4 or 5 rows, can't really do nothing then but i don't care, I'm in "preview mode" ;)
So a button to just max/minthe panel, but keeping it always visible, would be much better to me :)
(it's just like Shift+F12, but having this as a tb'button would make things better/faster, for me)

should renaming feature be soon implemented?

btw.. has it ever been considered the preview panel position to be changed?.... say..to the right maybe? cause when you are previewin html and other type of docs, you need large view, but also keep the list viewable..
just a thought..

A tri-state circle would be ok, too: off-min-max-off-min-max-...

(I can't imagine why one would not want the refresh turned off during the file op, so IMHO NoWatch should be the default - although I could be unaware of other factors.)
The default is currently 0. I personally like seeing the refresh action :wink:
I suggest you test it some days and if everything looks cool I'll make it the default.

Cause that's a common way to go/see if a toolbar can be customized in many apps :wink:
Cool idea. Just done it! :D

a very cool hidden feature if you want my opinion ;) Thanks :D

I like some of the new toolbar icons we have too. BTW for buttons without context menu, maybe you could have one with only one item: Customize toolbar
Cause that's a common way to go/see if a toolbar can be customized in many apps :wink:

Download the latest TrackerV3 BETA version (v4.20.0046, 16-nov-2005).

v4.20.0046 - 16.11.05 13:06
    + Toolbar: added Refresh. Refresh tree and list in one go.
    + Toolbar: added Info Panel. Show/hide the info panel (toggle).
    + Toolbar: added New Tab. Add new tab (clone of current).
    + Toolbar: added Lock Tab. (Un)lock current tab (toggle).
    + Toolbar: added Close Tab. Close current tab.
    * Tree context menu, Create New Subfolder Here: now focus is always 
      moved to the new subfolder, and the rename mode is invoked in the 
      tree (not in the list). And that's independent of the context menu 
      of the current or another folder was opened.
    + Here's a new INI file trick (aka hidden feature):
        [Settings]
        NoWatchDuringFileOp=1
      If NoWatchDuringFileOp=1 then auto-refresh is suspended while file 
      operations are going on. Reason: consecutive refresh activities do 
      slow down the file operation itself. This is notable especially on 
      large folders and when moving many bytes.
