"Show files in subfolders" (Flat view) button and

Post by Dreamer »

"Show files in subfolders" (Flat view) is very useful feature, but it's very hard accessible (menu only). Therefore I suggest:

- Toolbar button
- Minitoolbar button
- Keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+B - it's free for browser and the same as in FreeCommander and Total Commander)

Workaround for HotkeyP users:

Command:

Command to active window

Parameters:

597 xnview.exe&XmainClass

If you choose Ctrl+B as a shortcut, you'll lose this shortcut in viewer to go to browser because xnview is using the same window class for both modes. If you need it, then choose any free shortcut, or shortcut you don't use.

More info is here.

Support++

Toolbar button should be bi-state. (In = flat view, Out = normal)
