1 Rename & 2 Search Criteria Suggestions

Post by GHuston »

[I posted these in the wrong forum.]

1. 'Rename In Folder' Option

Include an option to Rename files that are selected, leaving them in their current location, with new (or modified) extensions (or names?), rather than Moving them. I like the idea of being able to a) replace, or b) prepend or c) append a string to the extension, like: *.* --> *.*_DUPES.

2. Double-Click Search Criteria Into/Out-Of Search Paths:

On the side-by-side "Search Criteria" windows, it would be nice to move folders into or out of the right hand folder by double-clicking on the desired entry. This is a common standard in moving list entries from one side-by-side window to another. It's usually quicker (to me) than the a) select the entry, then b) Right-click, then c) select the move option, paradigm.

3. Drag Folder Out-Of Search Paths:

I notice that you allow a folder to be dragged INTO the "Search Paths" window, but not OUT-OF; that would also be more efficient than the right-click, although I don't know how much trouble it would be to implement.

The last two may seem to nit-picks, but when you are quickly going through scores of folders, the extra left/right clicks start adding up, and making mistakes more likely.


Thanks,

Hopefully will implement the folder dragging in v2.0. Thanks for the suggestion.
