Bug report - menu bar still active in hidden state (Announce)

posted by Japheth , Germany (South), 10.08.2010, 07:06

Hello,

after suppressing the menu bar, DZ still will popup the file menu when I press Alt-F. IMO this is an error - at least a design flaw. I'd like to suggest to disable this behavior and search another way to navigate to the menu items. VC does it pretty good: If you press and release ALT, the menu bar becomes temporarily unhidden.

Another thing, which is not a bug, but a feature what I miss: a fast way to navigate through very large file lists in the panel. If there are 3000 files in the current directory and I want to position to the first whose name starts with "mx", then DZ only offers the rather limited SEARCH dialog to assist me.
