Auto folder generation from existing folder structure

Hello! I have 2 main gripes with direct folders, even though i use it daily. I’ll split these into 2 suggestions as they are quite unique So first one, I work with a lot of folders and files, I’m a CGI artist. I use a program called Post Haste to setup a folder structure for each project. Having to then set this up with Direct Folder is a massive chore. I also use 3 different machines and have to do it 3x (this is my second request). Anyways, it would be AWESOME, if I could point direct folders to a folder, and it automagically general the folder structure with sub-folders and folders for you. Additionally, if a new folder is added under the parent folder that you have pointed it to, it automatically adds that into the config. Thanks for your hard work on this!

Make UI more intuitive and more consistent: collapsed view

I find the collapsed view harder to use that it should be. The information is not grouped as well as it could be and the rate graph often makes it hard for me to read the text on the right size of the window. The screen capture seems to show more contrast than when I am looking at the full screen. Collapsed View Rate Graph Make it easier to read text in collapsed view. I find that the graph often makes it hard for me to read the text when the blue graph is covering it. Maybe lighten the graph color, or use a different color that has more contrast with the text. (The next suggestion also addresses the visibility issue. Arrangement of information I would suggest experimenting with a different arrangement that groups like items on the same line and puts the important information closer to the top so as to not be covered by the rate graph as often. Here is an example Line 1: operation information Jobs icon? At the left of the first line and give it a tool tip the operation such as verify Pause and stop buttons at the end of the first line Line 2: Progress - time based Add a progress bar showing elapsed time and projected time to completion and percentage complete. This makes progress very obvious. Line 3: details 1022/15847 files 32.4/88.6MB 32MB/s Average Line 4: file being copied, deleted or verified (source) If running multi-threaded then start the line with 1 of N to indicate that there are multiple files in progress concurrently Line 5 is the target file if there is one Note: with this layout the graph is covering less of the important information most of the time

(bug?) Double click in filemanager (TC) renders favorites but selected does not open in filemanager

Within Configure > Options > ‘Open folders in‘ you can set an custom command-line for the file-manager. I have: d:\portableapps\totalcmd\TOTALCMD.EXE /O /S /L It works when I double click outside TC and select a folder from the favorites-menu from the DF menu. But when I double somewhere in TC, the DF menu appears but when selecting a folder nothing happens. It’s an existing folder and the double clicking is done in the lower status-bar OR somewhere in the upper button/tab area, the menu renders correctly but does not open the selected menu item from DF in TC. BUT when using the keyboard shortcut (again when the mouse is somewhere in the lower status-bar OR somewhere in the upper button/tab area), the selected favorite item from the DF menu works!!! (when TC is active!)
