While I am a big fan of Transmit (as well as BBEdit), using the
built in ftp tool as it existed in prior v8.x releases (with a
consistent interface between the 'Open from FTP Server..' and the
'Save to FTP Server..') was a simple and very important part of my
workflow. Our comments here are to alert the BBEdit team that
they've really regressed (and only half-way so) on the interface as
they try to 'modernize' the look and performance. The Open
interface is their new look, and it has some big plusses -- such as
a much longer and resizable window for displaying files on the
remote server. The cons are (as pointed out earlier) that there is
no default to the connect/disconnect button -- a major annoyance,
one can't even tab over to select it but MUST mouse over to select
the Connect button. The 'Save to ftp...' window remains a dialog
box, so its Connect/Disconnect button is the default and works as
expected.
I wanted to follow up on my own post (I'm on digest...)
When I use the 'Open...' command to ftp into a server, and I fill in
the address, the userid and the pw, with the pw field selected, the
Connect button is THEN the default.
So, for all intents and purposes, if this behavior remains true, it
is something I can live with in a sense. The Connect button at no
time becomes 'blue' or the highlight color if a new server is
selected from favorites -- and the functionality does require one to
tab to the pw field for the Connect button to work with the return
key, but it does work.
For clarity and accuracy, I thought I'd add that in.
