An intimate improvement on Vista Explorer

In the left-side folder panel of explorer, as folder is arranged in hierarchical indentation, there is almost always a horizontal scroll. As the user rolls the scrollbar vertically, it is likely that folder is in the case of no head or brain. This forces users to constantly adjust the horizontal scroll. As we all know, horizontal scroll is very troublesome, so it is often crazy. In order to avoid horizontal scroll, my habit is to expand the width of the folder, But This compresses the available space on the right side, which is very inconvenient for users with small screens.

After installing Vista RTM today, we found that after scroll and when the mouse hover is on the folder, scroll will be automatically scaled to the appropriate position. Although this improvement is very small, it is very considerate.

Tree navigation is almost everywhere, and scroll problems also exist, but the result is often caused by a wide (How much is wide enough ?) Because the tree navigation area is too crowded into the main view, the function of hiding/displaying navigation is added. As a result, the user does not repeatedly adjust the width of different regions, but keeps hiding and displaying navigation. Is this what we want?

This is the way to improve user experience. When a suitable answer appears, almost everyone will think it is simple. But why do design and developers usually turn a blind eye to it or provide bad solutions?

 

Updated in the early morning of April December 2:

This article was hit by csdn's headlines on the blog homepage. I should be flattered. But I am not happy. Because I have so many articles, why is it the only one that gets headlines? I guess it's because I wrote to Vista. I have written many articles criticizing ms, such:

• An unpleasant part of MSXML-Does M $ intentionally violate the standard?
• M $ ridiculous "backward compatibility"
• Another interesting analogy about msoffice
• Opinion: Wii is the only next generation host. Others are hardware upgrades.
• Style. backgroundimage will fire onpropertychange twice
• VML cache issue
• Dislike

It is ironic that the only article praising Vista is listed in the headlines.

Does the csdn editor have the courage to put the csdn Blog system into the blog homepage?

On the csdn homepage, the selection of articles is notoriously poor. Even if you are interested in some popular posts, you can make good use of the article to create pornographic titles. The three major portals also do well, that's also worth it (for example, robot sex partners), but some technical posts, completely low quality. Take the second JavaScript section in the "essence" section to generate a random number with a specified range value. Although the text is fluent, but how to convert random decimal places from 0 to 1 to random integers between M and N, I don't see any "excellent, do the readers of csdn, the so-called "the largest developer website in China", all need to add their favorite cainiao? I am so embarrassed to compare it with any of my Js categories. Nullablity in ES4 is my post on JavaScript 2.0 with brendn eich and others in the ES4-discuss mailinglist. Unfortunately, csdn editing certainly does not know who it is, otherwise it is the habit of csdn, the title of "the Chinese vs. JavaScript inventor debate JavaScript 2.0" is not on the homepage.

When I write down the above paragraph, I think I am still worthy of the readers who have been connected from toutiao.com. OK. Let me have a look. How long can this article stay on headlines?
