[BUGs] Thread's dead, baby! Thread's dead.

Because I prefer to have the "Load bitmaps on startup setting" disabled, this means that for activating all lister plugins that work on directories, like the promising dirsize and IEView, it's needed to switch the panel and press 4, rather annoying.

What about an additional "Load bitmaps on startup" setting for quickviewing directories? To make it perfect I would even suggest to split the complete startup behaviour in four parts to be able to finetune the lister behaviour:
F3 on files
F3 on directories
Ctrl-Q on files
Ctrl-Q on directories

An alternative would be to offer more hotkeys to be able to control the loading, like the Alt-Shift-F3 to disable loading of plugins. Maybe there even are some I don't know?

Furthermore I have discovered an annoyance when I created a new AutoHotkey-script including the hotkey Ctrl-Shift-Q:
If you press *any* key, like Shift, directly after Ctrl-Q, you have to be fast, the quick view panel shows a "?" instead of the summarize page, it somehow doesn't catch the directory anymore. It would be nice if this annoyance would be fixed and additional key presses are just ignored.

Other suggestion: Add cm_ListPlug1..cm_ ListPlug10 to invoke the lister with loaded first 10 plugin in plugin list. It’d be possible to define hotkeys for every lister-plugin.

EX: I have installed DirSize with IEView and IEView has priority. I set new hotkey Alt+Q for DirSize. Then if I press Ctrl+Q I get IEView and when Alt+Q I get DirSize.

Well, although there doesn't seem to be any interest in the request, here is a little AutoHotkey script that automatically presses "4" after activating quick view thru Ctrl-Q, when "Load bitmaps on startup" setting is disabled.

Code: Select all

~^q::
IfWinActive, ahk_class TTOTAL_CMD
{
  WinGetText, ListerText, A
  IfInString, ListerText, Lister -
    Send, {TAB}4{TAB}
}
Return

@ghisler:
Could you at least comment the bug? What about the question mark?

Another bug:
After Ctrl-Q is pressed on a directory, the title bar in target panel correctly shows the trailing backslash. When navigating to other directories in source panel, the backslash disappears.

These little bugs are rather annoying for hotkey and other scripting purposes.

And see my thread (also nobody seems to be interested) for a focus problem in Quick-View mode:
http://ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?t=8262

These all seem small, easy to fix annoyances.
IMHO, they shouldn't automatically get lowest priority for fixing.

I think it is a very good idea.
