The ability to choose which buttons (options) to show in the toolbar.

Greetings.

I was using the FileManager recently and wanted to make sure the user could only select a single file. I was expecting a parameter to configure that but I didn't find any. I was able to bypass the issue by acting on the value reported by the component but I found it a bit inconvenient.

I think it might be interesting if we could:

• choose if we select one or several elements (single vs multiple selection, like with grids)
• choose what element we can select (files & folders, files only, folders only)

What do you think?

Greetings.

I was using the FileManager component for a project and wanted to disable some operations since in my use case, it must not be possible to do them. But I was surprized to notice that this apparently cannot be done. So I suggest to add boolean parameters that will allow to disable the following features:

• new folder
• renaming
• searching
• details pan
• download
• upload
• delete

Of course, the goal here would be to render the user interface accordingly. E.g., if deletion is disabled:

• remove the Delete entry in the right click menu
• and never call the OnDelete event.

The ability to choose which options to appear in the ContextMenu.

Currently, the thumbnail view is the default for the FileManager. I would like to be able to show the grid/listview view by default.

Currently, the upload functionality of the FileManager allows uploading only one file. I'd like to be able to upload multiple files.

Please add the ability to search by "contains" filter operator in the FileManager. The current search is fixed to "starts with".

Please provide the ability to set a ProxyUrl for file downloads. This will avoid the need to serve downloaded files as data URLs through JSInterop and will support downloading of larger files.

Hello,

Nice work on the FileManager component, this will be incredibly useful. I would like to use this control in an Open File Dialog and the only thing I'm missing to support that is what is the selected item in the listview. If I could bind that selection then I could enable/disable my Ok button and provide the selected item(s) when the user hit's ok. Is there a way to access this information?

Thanks,

Would like to be able to change / recall State of expanded / collapsed items in FileManager, similar to how we can with the Grid component using Groups.

On refreshing data from the database, the entire File Manager reverts to all items collapsed, which will be annoying for end users.

State management could also deal with the default view (Details vs Icons) as requested elsewhere for this component.

For true load on demand, the OnRead event should be triggered for:

• PathChanged;
• TreeView expand;
• as many more data-related actions as possible;

By default, the items are automatically sorted by name. I want to programmatically change the default "Sort By" option, so the user does not need to change it from the dropdown.

I want to be able to control when the ContextMenu is displayed. For example, I want to prevent it from opening based on my custom logic.

I would like to have a custom click event handler for File/Folder in File Manager.

Currently, the built-in PreviewPane of the FileManager cannot be modified to include additional information such as new fields or formatting.

I would like to be able to add a DropDownList or other HTML in the Upload Dialog. 

I want to be able to set the desired custom icon depending on the file type.

Please expose an option to customize the appearance of the thumbnails. I'd like to change the icons of the files/folders in the content visualization pane.

Possible to add in the FileManager preview pane, a preview of the actual file, if the file type is simple; i.e. image or video (or pdf); or provide functionality to add preview.

 

Cheers

Phil

I would like to use the OnExpand and OnCollapse events in the TreeView segment of the FileManager.
