Ctrl + no longer works in 3.0

I used to be able to hold the Ctrl key and hit the + key above the enter key on the right side of the keyboard. This would display all file / directory attributes including owner information. Now that feature is gone. What happened? How can I see who the owner is?

Right-click on the listview column header and select group from the list.

ok now what about auto fitting the width of text like it used to do. Windows exployer does the same thing. Ctrl + auto resizes the columes to the width of the text.

Are you sure this was in Flashfxp before (if yes, what version?), because i would find this feature handy as well

Ctrl + should already do that.

works the same except it wont show columns that aren't marked as visible.

No it doesn't The behavior is different now in version 3.0. In version 3 all it does is enlarge to some preset column width. If you make the column width smaller then hit ctrl + the columns will get wider. In some cases too wide. Instead of should auto resize to the text shown. It does not work like version 2.x did or windows exployer.

I stand corrected, The behavior is the same but the calculation logic is different.

The ListView is now a virtual ListView and the built-in Ctrl + logic doesn't apply. Now we have to use our own logic to minic the behavior of Ctrl +

We do allow alittle more space at the end of the text than the standard windows auto sizing.

EDIT: I'm referring to the remote ftp listview.

thankx for the acknowledgement.

I think the issue that bugs me is that I have a limited screen space to work with and by default there is too much blank space between the directory name, size, date, etc... A ctrl + does not reduce that wasted screen space at all. In fact on a site such as ftp.microsoft.com which has 8 letter directory names, there is enough space till the size column for 50 characters. After login it auto resizes the name column to a width of 50 characters and a Ctrl + does not fix that.

If this is by design for some reason, then ok. But if not is it possible to fix this issue in the next revision?
