While I see that Network Browser is able to create and delete folders on other volumes on my local network, one thing which would be very helpful to me would be if it could also create plain text files as well, which it would also be able to edit, and even rename, if necessary.

With this functionality, I could then easily copy and paste text data from text files on my Android, to text files that are on my Apple Studio.

My iPhone app FileBrowser already has this ability. It would be great if Network Browser had it too. Thanks!

Hello again. I seem to have discovered a new problem when trying to list files in folders on my Apple Studio.

Is there a limit to how many files Network Browser is able to display?

The reason why I ask this, is because for at least the second time now over the past day, Network Browser is just showing a blank white screen without listing any folder content.

For example, I just went to a folder which contains about 725 BBEdit files. These files are just plain text and nothing more.

They are not word processor documents that contain special fonts, special styling, images, etc. Again, they are just plain text files.

Yet nothing is appearing on-screen. As I said, it is just a plain white screen

This has led me to suspect that Network Browser may be limited in how many items it is able to display. If the folder contains more than that built-in limit, then Network Browser just hangs and shows the blank white screen.

I thought perhaps I just needed to be patient and wait a few seconds. However, even after a few minutes, it is still just showing a blank white screen.

Earlier, when I tried to display the contents of a folder which contains over 300 subfolders, which themselves contain more subfolders and thousands of images distributed amongst them, the same thing occurred. Just a blank white screen with no actual items listed.

Can you please explain what is going on here? Is my theory correct, or is it some other issue?

Thanks!

Hello. Recently, I suggested some functionality improvements via the in-app Network Browser feedback option.

One feature request was the ability to copy and paste images from other volumes into social network posts. What are the chances of this being implemented any time soon?

Another feature request was the ability to order file listings alphabetically, reverse alphabetically, by last modified, and by reverse last modified, meaning from oldest to newest. What are the chances of this being implemented soon?

A third suggestion I made was that upon opening a text file -- including HTML files -- they should be editable, with the ability to save changes. How soon can this be implemented?

I may have suggested a few other things, but I don't remember them now.

Thanks for your app. I use it every day to connect to my Apple Studio
