====== Thunar 1.10 Roadmap (Xfce 4.16) ======
===== General =====
* Extend Thunarx API to be able to use emblems in thunar-plugins
* Potential user: rabbit-vcs. Looks like for Nautilus that is already possible.
* Easy to hide menu bar, tricky to get it back ([[https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/-/issues/174|Issue 174]])
* [ASSIGNED] Store view settings per directory ([[https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/-/issues/8|Issue 8]])
* Done for "view settings" and "sort order"
* Security problem with *.desktop files ([[https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/-/issues/156|Issue 156]])
* See as well ([[https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/-/issues/56|issue 56]])
* Risk to delete stuff in tree-view on accident ([[https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/-/issues/195|Issue 195]])
* Because tree view folders and files on the right both are highlighted, it is not clear which one is focused
* Display better error-dialog on bulk renamer ([[https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/-/issues/202|Issue 202]])
* Provide a collection of preinstalled custom actions, which can be enabled ([[https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/-/issues/245|Issue 245]])
* Symbolic icons for sidebar ([[https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/-/issues/252|Issue 252]])
* Replace systray file-operation progress item with statusnotifier
===== Tasks =====
* [ASSIGNED] Merge all context menus into one ([[https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/-/issues/198|Issue 198]])
* Done for almost all context menus : only one missing: Bookmarks view
===== Important Bugs =====
* Thunar hangs on startup when unavailable network shares are in bookmarks ([[https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/-/issues/129|Issue 129]])
* [ASSIGNED] Slow multi-file selection ([[https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/-/issues/180|Issue 180]])
* Add throttle mechanism for `thunar_tree_view_cursor_idle`(See [[https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/-/issues/351|Thunar tree pane becomes out of sync and uses 100% CPU]] and [[https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/-/issues/402|Issue 402]])
===== Done =====
* On multi-file select, only the last one is opened ([[https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2487|Bug 2487]])
* Replace deprecated G_FILE_MONITOR_EVENT_MOVED in ThunarFile and ThunarFolder ([[https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16328|Bug 16328]], [[https://developer.gnome.org/gio/stable/GFileMonitor.html#GFileMonitorEvent|More details]])
* Notification loop between xfsettings and thunar ([[https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15305|Bug 15305]])
* Ghost files remain after moving files on a sftp remote ([[https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15704|Bug 15704]])
* Quit confirmation message when multiple tabs are open ([[https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15758|Bug 15758]])
* Custom action keyboard shortcut doesn't use the current, selected, path and file ([[https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15119|Bug 15119]])
* Revert gtk2 / gtk3 compatibility fixes [[https://git.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/commit/?id=e1b9b1726a39091ed9c6efc54b4168e7bce14538|Commit 1]] [[https://git.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/commit/?id=ad8663a45b55797e3cd7e1b8ade1cef258c91d3c|Commit 2]]
* Prepare for Gtk4: Replace GtkAction/GtkActionEntry/GtkUiManager ([[https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16654|Bug 16654]])
* Deselecting multiple files by clicking on filename takes too much time on detailed list ([[https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/-/issues/345|Issue 345]])
===== Dropped =====
* Use xfce4-notifyd instead of LIBNOTIFY
* Reason: a more generic dependency is preferable thunar users running in other DEs than Xfce. Also, what are the benefits anyway?
