Andre Miranda <andre...@xfce.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |andre...@xfce.org --- Comment #1 from Andre Miranda <andre...@xfce.org> --- (In reply to alexxcons from comment #0) > You would like such a feature ? Are you asking this to me? :) Well, I mostly disagree, we can for sure ship some more actions, the idea to make them disable by the default is a very good one, but there many from the wiki that doesn't make sense to the average user IMHO. "Finding files inside the current/selected folder with catfish/gnome-search-tool" - catfish at least is now an official project. "Working with archives (tar, gzip, etc)" - What about TAP? "Playing music files" - xmms? what about mpc, clementine, vlc, Gnome music and Spotify? I think that's the reason we have "Open with". "Burning an ISO file to a CD" - Same "Viewing images" - Same "Converting PNGs to JPEGs" - What about gif, webp, tiff...? "Losslessly Rotating JPEGs" - Image viewers can do that, or just open the file with Gimp "* as root" - Not sure it's a good idea to ship this, anyone that cares to do stuff as root will do it in a terminal or is savvy enough to create the custom action. "Creating a symbolic link" - What about drag + ctrl + shift? "Saving the selected file/folder's pathname to the clipboard" - When copying a file/folder and pasting in a text field we get the full path "Setting an image as the desktop background" - We already have a plugin for this. "Viewing the disk usage of the current directory" - Folder properties already shows this info "Using 'nano' text editor in a terminal" - What about vim, visual studio code, atom, intellij...? "Download subtitles with periscope" - Why not download stock prices, format them as csv and open Calc? My point is: most of them are specific to few users, even with them disabled by default they would clutter the actions list. I think makes more sense to put in the dialog something catchy like "Custom actions are very powerful if you are creative. Have a look at what is possible." that would be link to this wiki. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ Xfce-bugs mailing list Xfce-bugs@xfce.org https://mail.xfce.org/mailman/listinfo/xfce-bugs
