new user suggestions

Finally a good FTP program! Thanks.

A couple of questions and suggestions:
1. When the  ‘Automatically detect time offset’ check box in the Synchronize window is checked shouldn't the "Hrs:Mins Ahead Behind" options become grayed out? Or is there something else going on?
2. In the Preview window (from the Syn window) it would be nice if the Item column showed the last part of the file path. I know that selecting the file will show it's path in the right panel but it's only one at a time and requires a user action. If the Item column could show the folder relative path that would be great.
3. It might be nice if the Preview window didn't cover the file browser window so one could examine them side by side.
4. Are Filters saved in Bookmarks?

Welcome! and thanks

1. Yes, I guess it could do.
2. The full path is shown in the Path column - scroll the list horizontally to see it, or resize the window
3. Ok, understood.
4. Yes.

Thanks for the fast response!

2. Thank you. I didn't scroll over far enough.

4. I really like that! How about some universal filters too?

One more thing, how about the ability to right click a folder and have the option to synchronize it? or right click a folder or file and be able to filter it out?

[JD]

You're welcome!

2. No problem. You can also drag the whole Path column next to the Item column by clicking onto the header and dragging. This rearrangement will be remembered for future previews

4. Good to hear it.  It's an idea about the global filter...  I'll think about it

The suggestion to filter out with a right click is already on my To Do list

FWIW, you can select a folder in the "local" pane, select a folder in the server pane and then hit to Synchronize button and these 2 folders will be synced. Even with the listings showing other folders... another used requested feature happily implemented by Our Guy!

Now that's good! Is that in the manual/wiki somewhere?

[JD]

Actually, it isn't. I added that capability after documenting the Synchroninze feature in the wikki. I'll get to it asap
