Not such a good app for Win 7 tablet

... but it really should be! The UI is really just not geared to a touchscreen laptop at present, but really most of that is just because everything is forcibly so small. Maybe it's not something so many people would care about, but I figure a base set of improvements to make it useable wouldn't take much and is comprised of fixes I've seen asked about elsewhere anyway.

- adjustable font sizes (fixes the size issue somewhat)
- list style for 'large details' (I think its called "content" view) like in the Windows 7 explorer (fixes the size issue completely as far as I'm concerned, it's just difficult to click on details view items accurately with your finger at present)

actually, the list and tree are mostly fine when you make them bigger. it's the menus and things that make life difficult. Perhaps it's just a case of making the icon size for details+icon view larger when no thumbnail can be created?

XYplorer has adjustable font sizes. (Configuration / Fonts)

Concerning huge icons (> 32x32 pixel) -- that's on my list.

Menu font and icon size is a system function (Control Panel / Display Settings...).
