Feature: Display list of files as preview for folders [Discussion]

[ArmanHayots]

What feature or improvement do you think would benefit Files?

Instead of nearly useless icon the app can display list of files and subfolders on folder preview. Even simple list is enough, but also nothing stops from displaying full interactive folder view, clicking on which affects main window navigation. That turns the app functionality near the miller columns which I find the good and useful addition. No need to display full folder tree — that will make a mess and slow down the navigation.

Requirements

Files Version

3.3.5.0

Windows Version

10.0.22631.3527

It's an interesting idea but it's worth considering that Files already has a Columns View layout.

There's also a plugin for QuickLook that does something similar.

@ArmanHayots did you try the Column View?
