Hi everyone, After a month of working with MOS2.0 I would like to express that... I HATE the two "All|List" and "Icons|All Files|Thumbnails" cycle gadgets in Ambient lister! >From 2 up to 4 mouse click are always needed to adjust the desidered view mode... ggrrrrr!! And same complications with the optional "Switch view" added in toolbar..... IMHO the old Amiga style concept of having a commutation "All Files" ON/OFF is now obsolete and meaningless: Why the user should not always want to see all his files? MIME recognition works so well that there is no longero need to associate icons to data files.... A single general switch "Show All Files" placed in the main Ambient preferences panel would be sufficient. For a contextual switching I think a "#?.info" filter when in "List" mode would have more sense. This way the two current cycle gadgets could be replaced by two simple, direct, less bulky and much more handy toggle "Icons|List" and "Thumbnails ON/OFF" buttons, bringing greater functionality and comfort in files management. Of course, this is only my humble conviction, posted for the curious to find out if someone agrees in whole or in part..... Best Regards, Paolo |
