Nimble Commander forum

Some drag-and-drop issues with Finder. In Finder, pressing Alt+Ctrl while dragging creates a link. In NC, pressing Ctrl adds the "link arrow" to the mouse cursor, but doesn't create the links if multiple files are selected. I would prefer if Finder's keyboard modifier were used (and the functionalit...

Maybe I haven't found it, but is there a way to set a default layout for new tabs? Currently (Build 2009), Cmd+T opens a new tab with a layout that doesn't seem to be part of the built-in layouts. I suggest either to create a setting for the default layout or use the current layout default for a new...

Not able to start it - crashed the first time and then - nothing. Also crashed for me. Works fine after deleting "~/Library/Application Support/Nimble Commander". What do you think? Looks great! Exporting a theme to JSON file works fine. Importing seems a bit odd: after exporting a theme, e.g. "Dar...

On arrow keys handling: well... in fact there's not much I can do here, except of rewriting these lists with some custom UI instead of using system menus. Mac's menu system is very rigid and provides only few options after menu was shown. I actually thought arrow-key-wrap-around was default behavio...

Probably an easy one: The QuickLists (History, Favorites...) can be navigated up and down using arrow keys. It would be helpful if they were wrap-around: pressing up when in the first position up would move the selector to the last position and vice versa. Maybe not so easy: When you start typing in...

I like this idea. Cool! I can write a tiny separate app, that will do just that... I think a "NC helper" app just for this case would be overkill. I'm using global hotkeys for apps like Things, iTerm2 or Little Snitch, they all have a shortcut recorder in their preferences without a helper app. I w...

Cool idea. Until there's a solution, you can do this yourself with a Service

Thanks, this works. As you said, this solution has a noticeable delay, about 1 second on my MBP.

@Mike: A native solution that works instantly would be nice to have.

strange thing.. downloaded unpacked moved into the application, with replacing launched seeing dark theme (I had "modern" before) I changed theme in settings (but it is not applyed), the program is closed and no longer runs I had a similar error. For me, deleting "~/Library/Application Support/Nimb...

What do you think about an option for a system-wide hotkey to put NC into focus? I'm thinking something like Win+E for Explorer in Windows. I always found this very useful and it's quicker than Cmd+Tab when there's a lot of open apps. A good example in OSX would be iTerm2.

... but my gut tells me database, e.g. sqlite... What you describe way more complicated than what I had in mind. In a nutshell, I would like NC to be able to undo - the last move-to-trash operation (not delete permanently!) - the last rename operation (not batch rename!) using Cmd-Z as long as I do...
