This isn't a showstopper but I'll mention it anyway.

When I do a locate file (inside):

1) It sometimes take a long time (10+secs) to view the list (UNC). If I hit 'Cancel' right away, the correct list shows up right away. I think this was a problem a long time ago.

2) It would be cool if MC could highlight the file you are locating instead of searching through the list.

If you cancel, you end up with a partial listing. (you'll see what it got through before the cancel)

2) It would be cool if MC could highlight the file you are locating instead of searching through the list.

Agreed.  If we forget, remind us in the bug thread.

Thanks for the highlight.

One problem I see is that it still takes a long time to get a list, especially on a network.

Does 'My Computer' re-read the tags/file info when doing a list? Most of the files it's displaying are already imported into the library. Only thing that was not imported were about 70 images (jpg's).

When doing an import for images on a network, MC is pretty fast. At the time, I was listing APE/APL files and took a couple minutes to display the list.
