XYplorer Beta Club
In order from highest priority "I NEED IT NOW" to "it'll be nice but ehhh if it dont happen",
1. GROUPING!!!!!! I know I know you can assign color filters to it but that isnt the same as a simple grouping that will state for instance "TODAY, YESTERDAY, THIS WEEK, LAST WEEK, THIS MONTH, LONG TIME AGO" How windows does when you group by dates. Remembering all these color codes and all that is just a tedious way to do it. What if I was color blind? lol (no disrespect to those that are). PLUS If I wanted to group by date and use Ascending for the grouping but also sort files by date but use descending for sorting the files theirs no option or work around to pull that off with XYplorer. The color coding is nice but extremely limited because you can only "group" the whole folder content as one and not subgroup like windows explorer does with its grouping and sorting the files independently inside that grouping at least by dates. Group By Date created, Group by Date Modified, etc etc I do like the color coding just doesnt work for my particular use case.
See what I mean, its just makes life so much easier grouping this way, (also an option you can probably already do is to change the font size of the grouping labels (underline red) independtly of other text so it stands out a bit more).
3. Uniform size Previews for EVERYTHING and ability to assign it a location on the xy axis. What I mean by uniform previews is that for all the previews to take up the same amount of of space, an option to set the height and width but to keep the preview native aspect ratio, and to position the preview to a dedicated spot reason being is that some of us are using split screen software and have a designated preview screen. this only as a additional option to the way it is now cause I like it how it is aswell.
NEW NEW Edit: I striked out 3 request as they can be done already just not in UI so much but through tweaking .ini which I have no issue with. thx jupe
New Edit; Up again back at it, I added a image to better clarify what Im trying to say, changed a few request added some new ones. I see huge potential in this as far as my use case, its a great program as is but there is a feature request section and this is what I'll love to see added.
,okay thats it for now, ive spent about 4-5 hours tinkering with this and its way past my bed time falling asleep in my chair tyring to be throughly in this write up, so yeah be great if you can implement those features im sure im not the only one looking for them, and Ill be around willing to test betas with these features in em and all that. Thanks.
