Improve clarity with long server lists

#1 Post by Jugibur » 2022-12-31 11:26

Hi,

I have created a lot of FTP connections including favorite folders. The problem is the clarity for long server lists.
Unfortunately there is no dropdown in the Mac version of FileZilla to quickly select a server connection, because the "wxWidgets" components do not allow this, as I have read.

I would be so happy if there were other ways to at least increase the clarity.
When I open the server manager, for example, I am also already shown all favorites expanded, which then makes the list even longer and more confusing. This always happens after new opening the windows – even after collapsing all favorites.

It would already be a help not to show all favorites expanded, only after clicking on the server.
Another possibility would be to add a search field in the server manager, with which you could quickly filter the list.

What do you think?

Hold the shift key while clicking the toolbar button to bring down the menu.

Oh wow, that's a really nice and quick fix, thanks!
I had read through old posts here and nowhere had I read about the use of this key....
