hi,

first TC is great and it IS the best purchase software i made since a long time ! ever !

1.
well,
just an improvement. When you display a jauge to estimate the transfert of multiple files, do you estimate it from the number of files or from the total file spaces of files ?

2.

when you do a files synchronization operation, the dialog box window show you the numbers of files which is remaining to copy, and the total size too. what is very useful !

but when you do a background (or queue files/folder list transfert), we do not have this information while we need it !

have a good day

1. Total size of files is used. It is inaccurately if you copy large ammount of very small files. And it was suggested some times to improve this method.

well you could split the jauge into 2 colors inside :
one based on size and another based on number of files.

ps :i don't know if delphi can do that, but visual studio can. else not, just put 2 jauges without space between then and it is done!

There's no need in two counters, one would be enough, just counting in a smarter way (e.g. additional small fixed number of Bytes per every file).
