Copy/Move - "overwrite" dialog box - overwrite options:
Is it posible to give them all as direct buttons to have direct access (by mouse and key as well) instead of go through More options ?
I very often use Autorename option (mainly autorename copied) and Compare option and I must click and click (through More Options)

. I never use Apend option, Overwrite all older.

You can use shortcut keys: Alt+Shift+. (i.e. Alt+>: note underscored
> in button text) to open more options menu and then C to use auto-rename copied. As I see, some menu items like
Compare don't have shortcut keys, you can add them by editing LNG file. If you're using internal English, you can create following
WCMD_MY_ENG.lng and switch to it:
So, Alt+Shift+. and then P will start compare.

Finger gymnastics is ok if it is rarely, but annoying if I do it often. So question is why not "P" (one click by mouse) instead of "Alt+Shift+. and then P" (by mouse two clicks and two focusing item) ?

By the way the buttons are little bit messy (unorganised). Let me suggest a new layout of the buttons in "Copy/move conflict" dialog box. (4 rows, 3 columns, words in brakets are buttons and there is one check-option at the end).
Code: Select all
[ Overwrite ] [ Skip ] [Autorename copied] [ Append ]
[ Overwrite older, retain newer ] [Autorename target] [ Compare ]
[ Overwrite smaller, retain bigger ] [ Rename copied...] [ Cancel ]
[Overwrite older/same age, retain newer ] [ Rename target...]
[x] Apply the same action to all conflicts
