Hi,
first I want thank you for your great work. I have found some small bugs and ideas you maybe want to fix in next versions:
1 - Like some others ask for I would love it if you have the possibility to change the view in the FTP window to tree view.
2 - Sometimes (nearly everytime on a network Device) if I scroll inside the File-Explorer the scrollbar stucks and for 10-20 seconds the whole app hangs. I read that other people have similar problems but they are using a 64bit version from windows my one is a 32bit.
3 - The FTP-function looses the connection very often. Maybe we need something like a keep-a-live-bit. some other guys wrote thats a problem with the connection-speed but if I had at the same time maybe filezilla working this tool doesn`t loose the connection?
4 - It would be nice a sorting option in the explorer feature like everybody knows it from the normal windows view. The right-klick option is ok but not really nice becouse you cant see on the first look which one is choosen.
5 - The last wish is a deeper integration for a svn client like tourtoise. Maybe you have another option in the projekt managment like SVN-Projekt and the you only need some buttons for check-in-out at the top were now the button is for publishing to ftp.
I hope my ideas are not so bad and can help you to perfect your software a bit more.
Thanks for your work nice greets

1 - Like some others ask for I would love it if you have the possibility to change the view in the FTP window to tree view.
Currently not possible, but we never say never.
2 - Sometimes (nearly everytime on a network Device) if I scroll inside the File-Explorer the scrollbar stucks and for 10-20 seconds the whole app hangs. I read that other people have similar problems but they are using a 64bit version from windows my one is a 32bit.
This is because some procesisng takes place (file explorer connects to network drive). You can try to unmap network drive or exfclude it from treeview. If you use only one drive for development, set it as the root.
3 - The FTP-function looses the connection very often. Maybe we need something like a keep-a-live-bit. some other guys wrote thats a problem with the connection-speed but if I had at the same time maybe filezilla working this tool doesn`t loose the connection?
The problem has been discussed here. Short version - keep-alive is in place, but many FTP servers actively are trying to detect artificial keep-alive so we need to outsmart them by more sophisticated methods than randomly sending FTP commands.
4 - It would be nice a sorting option in the explorer feature like everybody knows it from the normal windows view. The right-klick option is ok but not really nice becouse you cant see on the first look which one is choosen.
Valid point but how can this be shown? We want to avoid cluttering the interface so adding new interface element there is not an option.
5 - The last wish is a deeper integration for a svn client like tourtoise. Maybe you have another option in the projekt managment like SVN-Projekt and the you only need some buttons for check-in-out at the top were now the button is for publishing to ftp.
This is somewhat in idea stage!

Re: WeBuilder 2010 Windows 7 32Bit some Bugs
Can I add one feature that is definitely a MUST when it comes to FTP panel - select multiple files OR whole folders to Upload To/Reload from FTP.
Right now we can only do one file at a time... and even with a dozen individual files the process of uploading or downloading becomes a waste of time and I have to fire up a separate FTP software to take care of that, which kinda defeats the purpose of a built-in FTP panel. Not asking for much in terms of FTP functions, just multiple file upload/download of some sort and whole folder upload/download.
