Hello everybody, thank you for you replies. I'll transform my questions in suggestions: 1) data batch downloading would be great, since this is a pretty basic task, many experiments have 30+ arrays, and right now the user needs two clicks for each. 2) it is extremely misleading, to have a delete button and a trash can, but also something that permanently deletes your files, under a *Move* menu... named *Offline*... It would make more sense to me to let the user choose (under Delete) whether to keep the entry or not when deleting a file. Thanks again for this nice tool Giovanni
