Five browser locations instead of three.

In preferences, you should be able to choose yourself how many browser buttons you want. I mean, some of us works with big widescreen pivot screens, and can fit in 20 if needed. That way, everyone could set their desired amound of buttons, or as many as fits each users screen.

Exactly. There's plenty space on my screen.

But I do think it's safer to reposition the scroll bar (it should be on the other side of the browser to begin with).

I agree with Tuur. Have the scroll bar on the right side, according to windows and mac conventions. That leaves the left side for as many folder that would fit.

*Bump*

your're right, never noticed that. it should be - leaves the whole left edge of the program for controls.

I'd definitely like to see Windows conventions in place in the browser eg F2 for renaming; hitting "r" -> cursor jumps to files that start with r; sorting by size; mouse wheel scroll speed not 1 line but 3 or 6 according to Windows mouse settings etc.

the most important upgrade for me would be sort by type. If I do .alses with variations of beats, or cutups of tracks, these .als files are scattered among the .wavs, so I have to search for "*.wav in the folder to get a clear wiev.

Plenty of room on my screen for more browser buttons...

Here's my 2 zlotys

Yeah, 3's clearly not enough (and pardon, nor would 5 be)

You could, say, just drag&drop folders from the browser onto the blank area on the left, below (or in between) the existing browser tabs, creating a new tab for whatever you just dragged there (also setting the folder as this new browser's root), assuming the scroll bar would be positioned on the right -- and make it work for you in a way which would be very intuitive too, since you could dynamically manipulate the amount and the ORDER of the browsers at the same time without having to mess around in the ever so lovely preferences dialogue at all.

This would also work pretty well for faster/alternative browsing of 3rd party plugins (yes the finder is quite awesome -- i'm using it all the time)

It's not that hard.

My File Browser 1 has 26 alphabetical audio folders in it.

My File Browser 2 has 26 alphabetical lighting folders in it.

My File Browser 3 has 26 alphabetical video folders in it.

As far as i know, you can jam as many folders into each file browser as you want.

What's the problem?
