More clarity in language
The language used in the app could be cleaned up to enhance usability. For example, when moving items between panes, it would be more clear and quick to understand if the options were simply Move and Copy. Also, the options item in the overflow menu should read be collapsed into your main settings, because it was really confusing when there were both settings and options in two different areas

automatic night mode
An automatico night mode (with the dark Theme) will be really beautiful! You select the time from/to and the app will change automatically from light to dark theme! This will be very useful for the night vision.

Menu picture
On left menu there will be cool to set picture like in Google+ app.
Maybe if possible add some in-app account to sync settings?2 votes -
Add the 'Settings' menu item to the main top-right overflow menu
Currently the app 'Settings' for SE is accessible from the left-swipe side pullout pane that displays the Bookmarks.
It is good that it is located here but I would also much love to see and use it from being located in the main top-right overflow

Non auto-arranged icons like in classic Windows OS
The ability for a View mode that would allow file/folder icons to be arranged by Drag and drop and spaced out on the display.
This would be especially benefiting for Android tablet users who would be seeking to maximize their tablet workflow for a Laptop like experience.

Remember scroll position of Bookmarks view
Add the ability for the last scroll position to be remembered and restored for when using the Bookmarks pane.
Especially useful for users who have lots of Bookmarks and are multi-tasking with other productivity apps (it avoids scrolling a long list of Bookmarks each time)

Setting to Disable thumbnails for all Image and Video files
Especially for cache purposes, it would be nice if there was an option in the Settings in future to be able to disable auto-generated thumbnails altogether in Solid Explorer 2.0

App logos of file associated apps displayed as overlays
Each file and folder in SE 2.0 is represented as a flat circle icon with a little icon picture centered within the circle.
This generic approach is good and granted, yes certainly, it is design-conscious of the existing Material Design approach.
But just as a future enhancement in the future, it would be nice if there was a setting to enable SE to display app logos (within the circles) for each file extension of associated opening apps that SE would handle

Recent history of Folders and opened files
I think for SE 2.0 a Recent History list of the last 50 or so accessed files and folders could be made available.
It would be most suited to be integrated into the 'Operations' window in SE 2.0

Drag and drop cancellation method
Drag and Drop improvement -
I think it would be a great idea if the accent-colored Floating Action button in SE 2.0 changed into a Red colour with an X just as a means of cancelling a file(s) Drag and drop.
A user would simply Drag the files/folders onto Red circle and then the Drag and Drop would be cancelled.
Currently in SE 2.0 alpha (and in classic SE 1.6x too) there is no ability to cancel a drag and drop.

Reinstate the enhancements for the 'Filter'
I explain each of these enhancements below
Previously entered Searches (Filter tool) - http://support.solidexplorer.pl/responses/previously-entered-searches-filter-tool
A simple method of SE 2.0 remembering the last Filter search query and displaying it next time you use Filter or displaying it as grayed-out text that is ready to be re-used
Lock filtered results - http://support.solidexplorer.pl/responses/lock-filter-a-new-idea
Locking the filtered results would be slightly different than 'remembering previous Filter entry'. Locking filter means to me that the actual Filtered list view is locked or remains as a display even after entering and exiting folder directories that are part of filtered results.

Double-fast clicking on "New file" opens two modals to create files
Same thing with "New directory" button
I also can click on "New directory" and immediately "New file" then both modal windows are opened(screens)

Incoherent FAB behavior during scrolling
In my opinion FAB (Floating Action Button) behavior is incoherent during scrolling.
After scrolling up, nothing happen.
After scrolling down, FAB button is hidden and it don't show on the end of this action.So my proposal is:
Auto hide FAB on start scrolling up or down.
Auto show it on the end of scrolling up or down.5 votes -
Buttons labels after FAB pressed should be the same width
I am perfectionist and in my opinion labels should be centered, justified and every on the same width background. Pic related.

Unnecessary last screen-step during creating new cloud connection
After successfully established connection with Dropbox app should connect to it automatically. In my opinion the last step is unnecessary. Maybe simple green rectangle animation like in Google Drive connection will be ok.

Exclusive permisions - protect a directory and it's files from being deleted
As previously mentioned in another thread: http://support.solidexplorer.pl/responses/lock-deletion-for-wholle-folders-and-maybe-files-too
It would be great if in the future users could collate a list of folders/files that have to require exclusive permission before being deleted...This would only be to prevent accidental deletion from within Solid Explorer.
This feature would be for Solid Explorer internally only.
I am not talking about Encryption I am talking about a padlock in the form of a long passcode or removing the lock from within the settings.

Fluid faster scrolling support in the file manager
Scrolling could be made to have that same liquid fluidity that many iPhone apps feature in where a user gently scrolls and it fluidly scrolls faster than average with greatly reduced friction.
On HTC devices with Sense 6, the HTC 'Messenger' app has this. Also the Android app exDialer also features this to an extent.
It's something to do with tweaking the listview and friction within the code of an Android app.
It would so very much suit Solid Explorer to have this,not just merely animation wise but more importantly for when scrolling down a really long list of content…
