Hello,
first of all thanks for creating this great application, I really appreciate
your efforts!
I would like to have a button to skip files while synchronizing.
Sometimes I overlook a big file that is not supposed to be synchronized and I
realize it not until I see that file in the synchronization window (i.e. the
window that shows the current progress, current file, estimated time, total
progress, etc.).
Right now I usually abort the operation, deselect the file and start all over
again. Sometimes I overlook several files and have to repeat this procedure
several times in row.
A button in the window interface would be enough to safe a lot of time.
The second feature request is rather cosmetical:
I would love to collapse large folders in the comparison window.
I have to synchronize folders with housands of little files. Sometimes I can
skip an entire folder. But to look at the files underneath this folder in den
list I have to scroll down quite a lot and I sometimes lose the overview.
If I could collapse the folder (i.e. do not show the files in it in the list)
it would be a big help.
Thanks in advance for your response!

Hi andrain,
>Sometimes I overlook a big file
Generally I'd say your usecase is rather special. Usually one wants to sync
all files or only a few based on a preselection after comparison. Therefore
I'd simply suggest to do a quick sorting by filesize before synchronization
starts and exclude all files that seem too big.
>I would love to collapse large folders
This feature is quite frequently requested:

I think it would be really convenient and it is definitively planned for a
future release.
