#7837: [Tracker Preferences] Make "Single window navigation" default ------------------------------------+----------------------- Reporter: deejam | Owner: axeld Type: enhancement | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: Applications/Tracker | Version: R1/alpha3 Resolution: invalid | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: Has a Patch: 0 | Platform: All ------------------------------------+----------------------- Comment (by aldeck): Could you stop speaking in the name of the project, there are other people in the team, you know? Your vision is quite original, using terminal for your file ops kind of render your opinion unusual and inadequate. Concerning your last paragraph, you're wrong, single window mode does it exactly the same, it keeps settings per folder, and I spent weeks fixing bugs in this area a few years ago. Window shape/position persistency works a bit differently though, but is definitely there contrary to other OS's. In the end, the only difference between the two modes is the navigator and the constraint of not opening the same window two times (note that spatial breaks this constraint considering it can show the same folder on different workspaces and also allows to change settings on the same folder). Considering the IMHO overhyped "spatial" terminology, in single window mode, i also organize things spatially exactly the same as in spatial mode if i want, except i can also associate a screen space with a task instead (and that will still work with multiple workspaces). -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/7837#comment:16> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
