Backup (import/export) features for all appsettings
Hello, I would be very happy if it was possible to add a backup function settings , cloud services , network services (SMB) , user interface , etc.
With the ability to import and export settings , in case you would need to do a factory reset on their device , so you do not have to enter all program settings again.
Of course it would be great if you could encrypt the data with a password if you so desire.9 votes -

Toolbar flexible (both Bottom or Top)
I have come up with a new idea for the editing tools of the SE 2.0 toolbar and how it can be expanded and newly displayed.
Personally I prefer accessing my tools Copy/Cut/Delete etc from the Top of the screen which is how SE 2.0alpha currently does it, for me it's clearer to use and easier for single-handed operation when holding my phone with one hand.
I certainly do think that 'Rename' and 'Share' should be on the accessible tools for quicker instant use instead of having to open an overflow menu for those.
So in total the new proposed…

Share menu as a pop-up (bottom of screen)
As another idea for a better way to display the list of installed apps for SE to 'Share' to, may I now suggest a slide-in method that would pop up from the bottom of the screen and displays the listed apps in a grid view.
Youtube and Shazam do this for their latest versions on Android.
Especially the Youtube 'share' menu seems to display the most/last used apps above a separator at the top of the list.
The Youtube 'share' menu also features it's own "copy url" action within the same 'share' menu....
....So perhaps SE 2.0 could also use…

Reduce left side drawer width
Left side menu needs to be reduced in width, it almost takes up all the screen for nothing. There's no data info that requires it to be so wide.
Google play size is good enough ( I think).
Opinion based on nexus 7 view.4 votesPlease update to the latest Alpha, it looks much better on tablets.

Cast Plugin Compatibility
Probably planned already, but I'd like to be able to cast files from SE 2.0, either via plugin app (which I'm not a fan) or built in functionality

Hide files and folders for Solid eyes only
I'd like to be able to toggle the visibility of a folder or file within Solid Explorer only, like the app MiXplorer does. Basically you can select files and folders and toggle a hidden/visible status or metadata that will make Solid Explorer not display them just as if they had a "." in front of their name, and if you need to manipulate them you would select a "show hidden files" option within the app

Numerical number of folder items - Please extend 'Show folder size' for this
It would be just as nice if SE 2.0 would also display the number of items each folder contains.
This feature is available in another Material Designed file manager named ' Amaze file manager ' - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.amaze.filemanager&hl=en
Image preview of Amaze displaying it: http://i.imgur.com/Gc2ZCnD.png
For Solid Explorer 2.0, it should be integrated as part of the new 'Show folder size' feature....
....At first I thought that this item count could be displayed within brackets (**) but then after creating a UI mock-up I am now suggesting to the developer that it could display after a vertical bar which looks like…

Physical back button should close FAB menu if open, not exit the app
I couldn't make ss with that but the intuitive way to close FAB menu is to press physical back button. However after that I see info "Press again to exit".

'New Cloud' button in the Remote Storage Manager view
The button to add new cloud connection should be also in the Store Manager view. In my opinion it will be more intuitive.

Share menu like the overflow design featured in QuickPic
At first I was thinking of the latest Chrome browser (v39.0xx) on Android and it's 'Share' menu but then I had a re-think and thought that Solid Explorer users would want to benefit from a faster access 'Share' function instead of clicking through different menus, I hope the developer agrees :)
So now I support the one featuredin QuickPic in whereby it is a slim vertical rectangle that pops up as an overflow but does not reveal the full list of Share-ready apps without the user pressing 'more'....This just looks much smarter and would benefit SE 2.0, see attached screenshot.

The 'Rename' should be on the toolbar for faster access
I support moving the 'Rename' menu item from the overflow menu and place it on the toolbar next to the 'copy' and 'delete' buttons.
Also this could open the future door to Solid Explorer's first 'Batch Renamer' function:

Batch Rename support
Support for a basic 'Batch Rename' feature accessible from the same 'rename' item upon multi-select would be a great addition to SE 2.0
QuickPic features this and QuickPic's Batch Rename is so simple with it's use of customizable naming template codes.
I thought at first that Solid Explorer should have a same look renamer as the one that QuickPic has but now I am thinking of something a little more dedicated....
...Ok, how about Solid Explorer's 'Batch Rename' initiating in a separate window, just like how the Bookmarks Manager initiates in a separate SE window. With this, SE's batch Rename…

Add support for NOMEDIA creation in the overflow menu (toggle on or off)
Creation of NOMEDIA should be a relatively straightforward implementation and I can understand why the developer, Mr Głodowski, delayed on adding it to SE 1.6x because of where to fit in that previous UI.
Just a simple way to create a .NOMEDIA file is just this request....The top-right overflow menu would be the best place to put this menu item IMO where it's less obvious to accidentally toggle it
