It’d be a neat feature if this explorer had a quick access/pin explorer locations feature. As an example case, right now I’m working in a place with a ton of folders in both the Replicated and Server storages. It’d be cool if I could just pin a folder so I can easily access the contents of said folder and quickly navigate to nearby folders/objects.
I’m sure this has been reported beforehand but within the current build of the explorer, you’re not able to select multiple objects in the explorer by quickly dragging over them while holding your mouse in the explorer tab. It can get a little frustrating when I have to individually select a ton of objects to move over to a new location.
Otherwise, the explorer’s been awesome to use! I’ve had to temporarily disable it because of my 2nd point in relation to my work but I’m excited to see what comes with this overhaul.
The new Explorer doesn’t seem to expand horizontally if you have deeply nested Instances. You can see from the attached screenshot the horizontal scrollbar is already as far as it can go.
Hi, whenever I click on objects within the new explorer, sometimes they get parented under other instances for no reason. Especially with folders, when I click on a folder and quickly click on something else, that folder might get parented under that other thing I’ve clicked. It’s very annoying.
And the highlighting keeps changing even though my mouse isn’t on the explorer window itself, can that be fixed as well?
I’ve found the new explorer good enough to use now, we have a massive place that would take my pc around 2 minutes to expand, and now it does it within a few seconds. But when will shortcuts work with it?
You used to be able to rename one file and while still in the rename textbox, press Tab to rename the next item in the heirarchy. This does not work now. It just replaces your text with a tab.
You are unable to undo your inputted text in the middle of renaming something using Control + Z (even with the script editor closed). This was possible with the old explorer.
If you have the script editor open in one place, copying an instance from that place does not get saved to the clipboard, preventing you from pasting it in another place. This is broken even when right-clicking on an instance to press copy in the context menu instead of using the Control + C shortcut.
can you make CTRL + Z work with selection ? , so if i am selecting building A and then selected building B and then pressed CTRL + Z it reselect building A
I want to report that scrolling while dragging broke after 2 days of it working.
Please also make dropdown button a little bigger, I keep feeling like I’m gonna miss click.
More issues I encounter:
Sometimes dropdown button won’t show at all/stay in open state/be unclickable, if clickable no items are shown even though there are
Lag while scrolling and instancing/deleting lots of items - Lag persists even though dropdown is closed, in old explorer it’s handled
Selection trailing behind while scrolling
Icons popping in while scrolling/opening dropdown
Selection issues in general with next gen UI
Dragging a model out of the Toolbox, switching to the Explorer and dragging it outside of the widget will cause it to get parented to nil.
Couldn’t reproduce for this video, but occasionally when this happens the Explorer will still act as though you’re dragging something even after releasing the mouse, and you’ll still see the blue highlight in line with the mouse’s Y-axis (even if you’re not hovering over the Explorer), and will expand anything that has children too while it’s “hovered.”
Edit: Managed to reproduce. This time it happened after right clicking a plugin and selecting “save and reload.”
You can fix this by just dragging and dropping something else.
