The 256 files selection limit
Posted: 17 Jun 2009 22:59
Hello again from me.
As I stated in a previous topic, I like XY very much, I know now it's stable and ready for long uptimes.
After few days of working with it and learning the features, I came accross this limitation of 256 selected files in a tab that can be remembered between switching tabs.
This is almost unacceptable for me, for example I select carefully 300 or 400 files, then I go to another tab just to check something, then I go back and - there are no files selected.
Is there a way to increase the 256 files selection limit or it is hard coded?
I read this was made for memory/efficiency purposes but I think I should be at least able to change this number. I have 8 gigs of RAM and I'm Ok if XY consumes even 1 gig at times, just to be able to not lose selections.
Thanks.
