View files in column view #4017
Comments
Well.. I could join #11958 but this is different. It is not only the question of implementing column view, it is question of using standard Apple list box (or however it is called). Inheriting would allow that when you drag something to folder and hover, it would spring open. This is not happening now. Also, copy in finder and paste in Cyberduck is also not working. It is either not working inside Cyberduck (copy in one folder, open another, paste). They are working somehow, but that is not like in Finder and is not intuitive. If you cut a file (as object) and paste it, Cyberduck first say that it already exist which is not true and when I accept to overwrite it says It does not exist and delete original file. Cut, copy and paste should work as expected and in context of selection. If copy is made on same place, offer rename like finder, it is useful for having quick backup of original file while working. So this is kind of a bug + enhancement |

Use View → Customize Toolbar to drag the View widget to the toolbar to switch between list and outline view. |

Choose Preferences → Browser → Use spring-loaded folders when dragging files to enable. |

You can cust and paste files using Command-X and Command-V. When pasting the file, make sure the working directory (selected in the popup button above the directory listing) is different. |
So, here where we are :) Changing View is OK for me (I'm no light user ;) but I didn't see spring-loaded folders which is very nice (should be on by default). But.. still, there are some issues that should be solved. I am not sure if Cyberduck were using standard Apple would solve interface and user experience issues, but here is what I think:
I hope this helps in improving Cyberduck. RBrowser is fine piece of software but is not done quite in Mac fashion. However it is brilliant for SFTP, have support column and really is using ssh and commands (cp, mv, bzip, gzip, tar.gz, etc). I strongly believe that these things could push Cyberduck in front of every other FTP/SFTP software, commerial or not. RBrowser is reserving those SSH options for paid version only. |

We do have support to create and expand archives |
I know you have archive/expand but what if I have folder with 10.000 files, some 500MB+ in size I want to move to another location on server? Using ssh commands it is as fast as read new folder content. Download/upload strategy does not work there. There are also some other commands that could be nicely integrated, but first of all copy and move. Supporting regex for selection in toolbar would be huge boost for powerusers. I hope those 2 enhancements will find the way to Cyberduck along with column. |
It is strange to me that nearly all ftp programs, even including some commercial are not using default Apple handler (control) of the list of files.
My suggestion is that user should be enabled to use views that are available in finder, to use standard Apple interface control and possibly inherit some useful things like services, drag & drop, copy & paste..
And also to offer services for Finder.
