Buttons! Buttons! Way too many buttons!

Directory View has an update as to how the Orange Buttons work.

Many of the Orange command buttons can work with either a Folder or File selected. Other buttons however are only functionally operable depending of which you select or make little logic sense even if they do function for a particular context.

The growing addition of new buttons, each adding a new function, had simply reached a point where they were crowding the page layout by jamming up the File Path breadcrumbs.

As a result we have made a modification as to when an Orange button displays. Everything is still there, the buttons are now simply organized in a fashion that is more logical to what the User is doing at a given moment.

The Display is now:

Folder Selected:


File Selected:


Note: Batch Print. I suspect several of you are curious as to what that feature might be. You won't have to wait long, just another week or so. ;-)
