Improved Export Ux Ideas

[jpbro]

Hi Jürgen,

A couple of small feature requests that will make it easier to export icons:

• On the Export page, In the Folder text box, it would be great to be able to type a path (which you can), and if it doesn't exist then Colibrico will prompt if you want to create the path rather than just give you an error and force you to go and create the folders/subfolders manually before you can save.
• If a file name already exists when exporting a new icon, it would be nice to have a "Rename" option that does something like Explorer does (e.g. "MyIcon - Copy.svg", "MyIcon - Copy 2.svg", etc...). Sometimes you just want to get the icons out quickly, and then you can go manage the files in Explorer once they're exported.
• Instead of a drop-down list of file formats, it might be nice if you could select multiple formats to export (e.g. SVG and PNG)? Not sure about this one, but some food for thought!
• In the Settings for Name section, the Name box defaults to "Icon selection" (which is good), but it would be nice if this were a "field" instead of just an option. For example, if you put something in like "Test - Icon selection" then the result name for the "Cloud" icon would be "Test - Cloud", and the "Design" icon would be "Test - Design", etc...

None of the above is critical of course, but they are some small tweaks that I think would help with the user experience.

Thanks as always for your work on this fantastic software!

Hi Jason,

Folder textbox: If a path does not exist, you are now asked if you want to create the folder.
Rename option: With the new checkbox "Duplicates", filenames receive an extension "Duplicate" and a number if the file name already exists. The term "Copy" I did not use, because no copy is created.

The new field "Prefix" allows the file names to be preceded by a text.

The drop down list with the file formats I have not changed.
Usually only one file format is needed. If you need a second file format, you can specify another folder with the current logic.

Best regards Jürgen
