You can either make the main window in a details list or icons, and then enable the preview window or the details window.

It wouldn't be so bad if font rendering was actually decent.

I just don't get it, how come Microsoft is unable to ship an OS with decent font rendering?

What's their problem? Don't they use computers? Doesn't choppy, jagged font rendering scratch their brains? Don't they want to alleviate that mental pain?

>>
>>58666179
Yours is using the custom UI skin that comes with MAYA. Lots of applications do that to make the Open or Save dialogs look consistent with the rest of the UI. As for thumbnail previews you could try right clicking in the empty space and see if it gives you a View>Large Thumbnails option. It's based on what Maya allows, not windows.

It's pretty much the same but:
* It looks better, it bends with the system.
* It integrates with Windows, so it can completely replace Explorer, making other programs or your actions open Directory Opus by default.
* It's really smooth, the animations when browsing folders are pleasant to the eye.
* Very customizable, with mod and script support, there are a small, strong community of modders.

Try it.

>>
>>58668934
it is literally the photos app shoved inside the file explorer window
you can test how it just by opening the app

new explorer looks cool IMO
>>
>>58652934
actually, that's why everything looks so weird and disjointed in w10.
Basically, since 8, for various reasons, from cutting costs, to sharing code, to making it easier to port the OS to new hardware, Microsoft has been trying to streamline and modularize as much as the OS as they can, while adding small bits and stacks, specific to the(win32 for desktops, phone stacks for mobile, etc.).
One of the parts of desktop windows that was a problem was explorer.exe, since that shit is tied to everything related to interface, and has some deep tendrils into the underlying OS as well.
And now, with leaks of the new file explorer and the Composable Shell, it seems they've been trying to get rid of explorer.exe as well, and make the interface a common thing as well.
So yeah, the face of windows 10 looks so weird because everyone is demolishing and laying new pipes everywhere, at the same time.
>>
>>58668934
It probably doesn't actually fit them, just uses an approximation that has to crop the least amount from each image.

Uhh, if it's as slow as all Metro apps, it's not so cool..

I'd rather have an ugly and snappy Explorer rather than a sluggish metro thing that is slowed down by animations.

Also, context menus tend to get large if you install more programs and the size of that dropdown doesn't bode well for a larger context menu.

I get the idea that they want to make it look consistent with the rest of the metro UI, but I'm not sure this is going to be great for speed, productivity, ergonomy.

Also, it all seems dumbed down, when the explorer actually needs a few features like tabbed windows, a native press-spacebar -> file preview solution (a third party program built this, Seer, but it's kind of a Chinese PUP-installing thing), etc etc.

I hope I'm wrong but I don't get a good vibe from that. It needs to be fast and it needs to have more features, not fewer.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use.
Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.
