DinoPulse gets a trash of its own
From version 0.6.8 on, deleted tracks no longer go to the Windows recycle bin but to a trash of their own. They come back with their favourite and their places in the playlists, the same way on every drive.
Until now DinoPulse simply used the Windows recycle bin when you deleted a track. That sounded sensible, but there was a catch: some drives, a USB stick for example, have no recycle bin. There a deleted track was gone for good right away.
What changes
- A deleted track moves to a hidden
.dinopulse-trashfolder inside its music folder. No file is ever replaced on the way. - When you restore it, it comes back with its favourite and its places in the playlists.
- You find the trash in the sidebar under the settings, grouped by music folder, with restore, delete permanently and empty.
- If you remove a music folder whose trash still holds tracks, DinoPulse asks first.
And a little motion
Since 0.6.10 a deleted track slides out of the list, the rows below close the gap and the trash in the sidebar bobs once. With motion turned off, nothing moves. A screen reader also announces that the track is in the trash now.
