File Manager multiple issues

Post by birdie »

1. This is across the entire application: delimiters are dead. Not clickable. Cannot be resized.

2. Directories must be listed first.

3. Column headers are not clickable: you cannot change sort mode.

You can show the directories first by selecting that option from "Preferences".

This could be the default. I don't know any other file manager that shows mixed directories and files by default.
