My Wishlist :)

Hey :),

I was testing XYplorer for a week and yesterday i bought it :)

It is very nice tool, very fast.

But I have some feature requests and may one bug:

Feature Requests:
  • a 2nd Tree for the 2nd Pane
  • Translations, may let the Users translate and send you the Translations
  • FTP-Support as some others already posted
  • Favorites-Manager (set ShortCuts, rename the location, change dir/file and so on..)
  • List All Items by Tag
  • "Breadcrumb Navigation" like Vista/7 has, as seperate adressbar (or both in one)
  • "Locked Tabs" Configure Font, may no "Underline" but "Bold", or some other options :)
  • TreeView: Auto Boxed Branch
  • Folder-Size overview, with graph bars, like the Programm: TreeSize, would be useful:)
Bug?:
  • TreeView-Mini:
    • Boxed Branch at "Documents/SomeFolder" but at "C:/Users/XXX/Documents/SomeFolder" this Branch isn't Boxed
    • Same with Favorite Folder
Best Regards,
Eugen

Hi and welcome to the XY forums!
And thanks for deciding to purchase it!
But I have some feature requests:
Having said that, it seems that you didn't use the forum search feature before creating this list...a number of these have been discussed numerous times before, and some quite recently as a result of similar threads...especially FTP, language, and breadcrumbs.

By posting this list on your first post you also (hopefully maybe quite unintentionally?) did something that you likely didn't want to and that was to give a bit of a negative impression...on most any software forum, when a brand new forum user gives a multiple item "wish" list that hasn't been researched using past history, it's not the ideal way start in a user community...really sorry to have to say that and hope you understand, ok?

So I might suggest you do some looking around here in the forum and review/update this list as appropriate...and become a regular member here...Thanks much!

Update: See this thread that may answer some items in your list:
http://www.xyplorer.com/xyfc/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=4131
(I didn't find that thread earlier so you'll see I responded similar there)

And here's a thread found via search for "treesize":

Oh i am sorry :oops:

Then you can close this thread, I'll search for existing threads and then put for each wish a new thread (if not exists)

Btw, do you mean this Roadmap? http://www.xyplorer.com/xyfc/viewtopic. ... map#p36381
It is kinda out-of-date, some items already exists, would be great if you divide this list in "already exists" and "Not yet" or something like that :-P

Well, you certainly didn't know that someone else had just done a similar thing very recently so I was just a bit more sensitive to another one, ok? And much appreciate your apology as do others!

Yes, it's preferable to just add a post to any existing threads that closely apply, even if those threads are a bit dated...and I'd suggest finding the one or two unique wishes that are most important to you, continue this thead with those for now and hold some others for later...

Actually, it is quite up-to-date but one can't always rely on the date/time stamp on that thread as Don updates it without bumping that sometimes...and it does already have a "done" marker: the "+" sign!
