I want a "Lock Shelf Item" feature in Workspace File Viewer. Since a lot of things now supports drag and drop from workspace, I keep losing files/directories placed on the shelf by dragging those into applications. Default action should be what it is -- remove from shelf if dragged out, but there should be an option to lock down shelf items individually, so you can drag a directory from shelf to Save/Open panels without waiting for it to appear in the Icon Path (which is slooow). This should solve your problem without cluttering Save/Open panels. -- Izumi Ohzawa [ $@Bg_78^=;(J ] USMail: University of California, 360 Minor Hall, Berkeley, CA 94720 Telephone: (510) 642-6440 Fax: (510) 642-3323 Internet: izumi@pinoko.berkeley.edu (NeXT Mail OK)
