UI Enhancement Request: beef up the breadcrumbs

As is navigating the UI is a bit clunky, awkward, and frustrating. It’s often much easier to use the provided breadcrumb trail to click the arrows to display the folders in that section, click the folder you want to go to, and have it navigate there.

NC doesn’t do this (clicking one of these arrows does nothing):

Common examples where this does work:

Windows Explorer:

Directory Opus

TBH I’m actually very surprised NC has gotten 30 versions in and no one’s thought to add it yet.

Any chance?

I forwarded this to the design team. Then, let’s see what they have to say about this.

Are you willing to work on this topic or just posting a feature request here?

All depends on how much “work” would be involved on my part. I’m already drowning in projects atm, so no time to roll my sleeves up for anything heavy, but I can test, and things like that.

Otherwise, I’m just posting it here as a feature enhancement request.

Hi @J_Scott_Elblein, really good suggestion, makes a lot of sense! Especially as you say other solutions do the same.

Since it is a very well specified request, can I ask you to open it as an issue at GitHub · Where software is built ? This will help track and plan it. :slight_smile:
