Adding COPY/MOVE function into the TOOL Menu
« on: November 04, 2002, 03:19:32 pm »

Hi,

Thank you for making 9.0 a very pleasant experience.

I've noticed that when MJ starts to analyse drives, it is quite slow.  I hope to minimize it, and increase my MJ experience.

For example, when I wish to copy or move files from 1 location to another, I would need to click on the right mouse item to bring up a pop up menu, look under TOOLs, and select COPY/MOVE.

The feature is fine, but when I click the right menu, it takes a very long time for MJ to respond- not sure if it is analysing the drives in my system.

My request is that in the main TOOL menu, also add the COPY/MOVE function so that I can avoid using the RIGHT MENU access.

For sure.  We hope to get pretty much all of the r-click functionality exposed in the main menus before release.

And it shouldn't be slow.  Do you have like 100k files or something?

Thanks JNKH.

Hi Matt,

I guess the development team getting the release out soon, and could be in time for Christmas.  It will be a joyful occassion.

Thank you for assuring that most items will be exposed in the MENU bar.

I've written to MJ a couple of time on right CLICK.  On my notebook, MJ Right click response very quickly- but I do not any attached CD drives.

On my HP pavillion, I notice that MJ is slow when analysing drives - this I notice when I clicked on the CD drives.  I notice the application waits when I Right click.

In the Task Window mgr, it says "NOT RESPONDING" for a few secs, and then it recovers, and MJ returns.

This could a few reasons why Right click has some response time issue.

Good call -- I bet it is the "Send To" device part.  However, it should only be slow for the first right-click.  If it's slow every time, we're doing something wrong...

There is something funky going on there, though... I've noticed that whenever I try to send MJ into fullscreen, the disc in my CD-ROM spins up. It's a data disc that I've left in there (a game I'm playing), and MJ does this every time I click the Full Screen button.

Hi Matt,

Thank you for your attention on the R-Click waiting problem.

I only experience this r-click problem on my HP Pavilion, and not on my HP notebook.  

Do you need any information to troubleshoot further?
