In other words - Discovery's "files view" do not listen to "rotate to landscape" event :P

As i have said - documents are handled properly, but not the file/directory list itself without a workaround suggested in my first post.

Discovery rotation

Why version 1.0 of Discovery do not support rotation anymore? (although there is a workaround: you open pdf document, rotate in by 90 degree and close it. It is not convenient, but works).

Ok, i have solution for your issues.
I have it, because i had the same problem and finally i have solved it (by accidence, i have to admit).
Well - the problem is in Discovery's AJAX webapp utility. Especially in its usability (hey, Discovery stuff - read the following carefully):
When you add files, they appear in "upload queue", but uploading process do not start automatically! You have to hit "Upload All" button (how the hell i could know it?)
After that, my whole browser HANGS, but files are being uploaded (does anybody have such issues by the way?).

And one more thing - even if you (Discovery developers) do not want upload to start automatically - you should provide an "Upload it" button next to the each of the files in upload queue, to suggest user his/hers suggested action.

It even worse!
When having symlinked root of the filesystem in discovery, one can observe:
- there is no system response to the user that Discovery is realy searching, it just hangs
- one cannot cancel search (sic!) - Discovery hangs.

In version 1.0 Discover still displays bytes.
I'm so disappointed...
Is it really so hard to use:
progressView = [[UIProgressView alloc]
[progressView setProgressViewStyle:UIProgressViewStyleBar];
[progressView setProgress:0.5f];

?

In version 1.0 this problem still exists!

BTW. Is it possible to disable the animations when switching the directories?

eximius replied on February 21, 2009 16:14 to the question "always prompted for usern and pswd for priv folder" in mAPPn Inc.:

In version 1.0 this bug is still not fixed! (at least on Firefox @ GNU/Linux)
In another words - there is no possibility to use File Security.
If you want to access your files - password has to be disabled :(

Strange thing! Now i can see that there IS a menu with back button as well as next/last page... I am wondering why it did not show up the last time...

Entering the folder with large number of files

When you enter the folder with large number of files it takes several seconds for Discovery to display its content. During that time confused user taps it once again which causes entering another directory just right after last directory opens (which is not always desired effect).
Maybe you could block further tapping until Discovery do its task and display that funny "AJAX" progress err.... circle? :P

Michael, is it possible to send you a private message?

eximius replied on January 21, 2009 09:46 to the problem "Symlink as a text file?" in mAPPn Inc.:

damn it Apple!
Why they make this device completly not functional! (see bluetooth, file transfers, stupid iTunesDB file, and now, managing files!)
symlinks were a great workaround for the last issue :(

but listen guys, if somebody will make a symlink is it realy your's application fault? I think no, so apple should not make problems :/

maybe we can figureout something, because it was one of the greatest advantages of your app!

Bytes transfered

While uploading file, Discover displays number of bytes already transfered.
It would be great if one could set up if he/she wants bytes or kilo/megabytes (so called "human-readable" format) or even percent?
