Problem with the tabbed browsing...
Posted: 13 Nov 2005 11:37
Just wanted to drop by to say that this program is great! 
I had a big problem with too many Windows Explorer windows, and your tabbed browsing feature has saved me. This is a normal day... look how many Explorer windows I have open... sometimes I have more!
Now they're all in one window on my taskbar.
I have noticed one problem however... when you have many tabs open as I do, this is what you see...
the tabs are not very useful...
If you look back at the first image of my Windows taskbar, you can see that the full directory path is NOT displayed in the Explorer title bars. Only the folder name is displayed. This makes it easy for me to identify the folders, even if it is cut off like "Temp...", "BIG fi...", etc. I still know what the folder is. The problem is that TV3 is displaying the full path in each tab....
Here is the option in the Folder Options of Windows Explorer...
If you could have that option for the tabs instead of title bar... this would truly be a great program!

but your idea isn't bad either. It inspired an even better one in me: I now take a flexible approach to title shortening. It's harder to explain than to enjoy... you'll see it in the next version.
