Nimble Commander forum

Hi,

I've made a bunch of useful UI improvements, they might be quite handy:

• Connections popup now has different icons depending on a connection type.
• NonMAS version now can move itself into an Applications directory.
• List view now saves and restores column widths.
  Column ordering can now be changed with a regular drag&drop.
  Also a context menu was added to manage columns visibly via a right-click on a columns header.
  Fixed an issue with a sorting indicator being not showing sometimes.
• Brief view has got a grid back - it can draw vertical lines (turned on by default).
• Duplicate command is now accessible via main menu and via Cmd+D hotkey.
  It was also made more intelligent - it can duplicate an arbitrary amount of items, naming of duplicates was improved too.
• Made ConnectTo... dialogs a bit more intelligent.
  For example, when connecting to an SFTP server, NC can check a validity of provided private key and it's passphrase on the fly.
  In case of any error - it will be known immediately.

The build itself:

Ahh, did not know about a dedicated Duplicate command, always used Shift+F5
Not related to this build, but what I sometimes bothered with was the inability to resize the Preferences dialog (e.g. to have a better skimming through the shortcuts list). Would that be a bigger thing or a trivial one?

Yep, there was (and partially still is) a disparity between a context menu and a main menu.
I'm currently trying to unify them as much as possible.

Hmm.. I think it's possible to add an ability to resize this window vertically.
Need to check this in practice.
