Redefine toolbar button "Show Hidden Items"

Post by admin »

I don't know about you but I really like the new "Show Folders in List" function (Menu View | Show Items)! I'm sure I will use it much more than "Show Hidden Items". So I think about changing the default action for this button to "Show Folders in List". The current icon could be used for it without problem, yes it suits the new function even better!

Problems anybody?

I never used that toolbar icon since I always have "Show hidden" turned on anyway, so maybe the new use could be more valuable for people like me...

I personally like seeing every file/folder! Maybe some don't but I do...

I'm just like you and always have everything shown, but just like a VF could be very useful I can see how forgetting about folders for a time could come in handy. Like to deal with Selection Filter without hacing them in the way....

Yes, I definitely agree with this! My comment about seeing all folders/files related mainly to "Hidden"/"System" ones, which differs from files .vs. folders, when having only one or other of those visible at certain times would be helpful....
