Description: I was thinking about new Ideas for Filemanagement since first I read about Dolphin. I like the idea of Having a user Friendly File Manager, which supports the User. What I dislike in the modern FileManagers (an all Actual Oses as far as I know) iss, that you are bound to the actual folder to select Files In times where we have hundreds of PDFs, thousands of pictures and multimedia files, this is not the right way any more. My Idea is to get an Element Stack, where you can push and pop Items/Folders from anywhere, by klicking some Button or Mouse Action. My Graphical Skills are really not so good, so I just added my idea of signalling which items are already stacked to this http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=52738 great mockup. But for better understanding, just watch this movie. http://www.themerlinshow.com/ep/006-howto-quicksilver-comma-trick This OS X Tool does exactly, what I mean. License: CPL 1.0

very cool idea

I like this idea very much!
I never thought of it, but it's always hard to select multiple things, a stack could be very helpfull, because when you select something and click on something wrong you can lose the selection and have to start over.

yes it might be pretty cool.
there might also be a combination like shift-, to clear the actual stack

what i'm thinking about iss the following.

i click on a folder to add it to my stack.
then i enter the folder and unstack some of useless files and then go to k3b an klick on print stack to burn a cd with some images p.e.

This already exists, take a look at http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=52738
and for an implementation you have to look at some older comments at that page (but the dropdown seems to be broken for the moment).

Maybe take a look on Piccasa (Picture manager from Google) - it has the same feature. Beside, it has a dedicated Panel, where it shows "Push-pinned" Pictures (or you can even drag&drop Files to that area to add it)

Maybe that would be a nice "template" :)

isn't it the same what BasKet provides too , as a side-effect? you can easily drop files and folders to the basket and drag them from there if you need them again.

or do i miss something?

yeah in some case.

but i think that stack should be system wide available
p.e.
for burning ome images/mp3 from the hdd to a disc, deleting some files from different folders...

I actually sent the BasKet devs a mail where I described something like this: BasKet as a Konqueror sidebar, with some additional features.

For example, you can drop files to your basket and then add all the files to a tar.gz - to me it feels very "natural".

like Pathfinder

Pathfinder (for OS X) has something like this. It has a box where files can be dragged. These files are not actually moved until you drag them out of the box and into an actual folder.

When I used Pathfinder, though I found it clunky, since it was a part of EVERY window (ugh).

Perhaps for KDE4 it could be its own window and pop-up at the touch of an F-key

there needs to be only one place where you can drag files also it should have the ability to be purged

thats all
