Nice mockup, .Chris, but don't the No and Cancel buttons do the same thing?

+1

@ xombie,
No and Cancel have different functions. Cancel cancels the entire copy/move process. No just cancels the copying/moving of those files that create a path name that is too long.

Ah, should be skip like the other dialogs, i guess.

I agree with his mockup +1.

Going to check that program out btw.

Yeah its great if you need to make a mock up. They also have the XML code, as well as other programs.

How about fixing the ridiculous 260 character windows file path limit?? :-)

pmbAustin : That is a limitation in NTFS. Something like that cannot be changed over night. A whole update to the bits address spacing in NTFS would need to be done to cope with that, which would require a new OS essentially.

I think that W8 will have a new file system anyway to cope with issues like that.

I'll confess, I got pretty excited to see .Chris's UI shots. It made me think they were a real solution at first. sigh...
