The much-requested copy queue should address that, if you mean what I think you mean. (i.e. Being able to copy from multiple places without all the copies happening in parallel which slows things down.)
[/quote]
Well I mean being able to se two different folders from different places and be able to select content from both folders at the same time and copy that content into another folder.
For example you could have two different music folders at different places and you are able to select files from both locations at the same time instead of firt selecting from one folder and copy then selecting from the other folder and copy.
While I´m at it, it would be nice if it was possible to remember and name file selections.
Perhaps it is also already possible.
There's no star-rating system at all in Opus so far, although you could set the Description for folders to "*****" or whatever as a cheap alternative.

Then a star system also of rating files/catalogues would be excellent.
Would also be nice to be able to quickly rate a file as important/un important. Could be nice if you quickly wanted to delete and search for unimportant files.
[quote]As for colouring folders, you can define any colours (and text styles) you like via Preferences:
[/quote]
What I mean is to be able to simply rightclick on a folder and chose a color to quickly color it. I think it is possible to do in windows by drawing colored folder icons and then using them instead of the default by going into the folder properties but it is a hazzle, and it should be able to do it quick.
Why not implement coloring/different apperance of filenames too.
For example all picture filenames could be a certain font, etc.
This would make it even quicker/intuitive to recognize what filetype a file is.
[quote][quote]About the folder tree view.
I would like to be able to hide earlier or later folder trees.
I think this can be accomplished thru using the bottom location view.
Or there could be a dropdown button for viewing:
Only the current folder tree
The current+ only the previous[/quote]
I'm not completely sure what you mean here. Previous as in the parent directories, or as in the earlier sibling directories?
If we're talking heirarchy, what's the difference between hiding all later folders and collapsing the tree? I think there's a command you can run which collapses everything in the tree except for the current folder, if that's any use.
[/quote]
What I´m after is to narrow down the number of folders in a folder tree view that you see at the same time to make it easier to get a overview.
This could be done by hiding some of the parent directories from view. For instance by having the option to only view a certain depth of the catalog structure.
[quote][quote]There is no easy obvious way of closing a tab.
I think you should add a X next to the tab.[/quote]
Like SoSweet says, you can put X buttons on the tabs via Preferences. You can also close them by middle-clicking them, or double-clicking them (depending on Preferences), as well as by clicking the X button in the File Display Border (the place that shows the current directory, which may be hidden unless you're in dual-display mode, again depending on Preferences).[/quote]
Really nice! Should be default way of view because it is more beginner friendly!
