Deselect Folders from view&folder tree showing file size

Post by Schattenreiter »

Hi, I know this might sound weird, but how about an option to deselect folders to be shown in the displayed folder trees in XnView?

It's quite nice that I can navigate all though my file-system, but I don't need all of them to be shown in the navigation bar at the left - especially not with a Unix-system (I don't need to access 80% of those).

I guess such an option, to customize the view of folder trees, would be quite useful. Could speed up access a lot. Maybe. ;)

And while were at it, how about to display a folder tree showing file size and other information in it? Could be quite useful to see this information at one glance. :)

If this were to be done, I hope it would be as a way to select folders to be shown, instead of deselecting. Actually, if it was a tree view, it wouldn't be too bad, if they deselected subfolders with them... it'd be nice to have just my image folder as the root, but I mght well be the minority.

Edit: Actually, what I want out of it is probably better served by favorites, if I can ever figure out how to add a folder. So never mind.

In browser view, above your thumbnail list is a text input field and left of it a star icon. Just click that one :-) See also http://newsgroup.xnview.com/viewtopic.php?p=39653#39653 for UI improvement concerning favourites.
