Windows 7 and Vista show breadcrumbs in the Windows Explorer address bar, like this:
> Computer > Local Disk (C) > Windows > System 32 > oobe > en-US
etc.
In Windows 7 (I can't speak for Vista, never used it) with a fresh build, you can right-click on any of the breadcrumbs and you get a context-menu, with the following entries:
Copy address
Copy address as text
Edit address
Delete history
Would it be possible to add the Beyond Compare context-menu entries to those context menus, so that Windows 7 users could quickly set left side folder, or initiate a "compare to" via the breadcrumbs context-menu?
It would be great to see support for this. I find myself "intuitively" trying to right-click those breadcrumbs, naively hoping that Beyond Compare will magically know what I want it to do :-)
I dread to think it could mean the developers would have to split Beyond Compare into 2 flavours, one for XP and earlier, and one for Vista and later. Hopefully there is a way to implement this without the need for maintaining 2 separate editions.
I hope this suggestion is constructive.
