I believe this timed disappearance is a feature, allowing the hot zone to disappear quickly when you are dragging for reasons other than to activate FilePane. I found that I had the files with the purpose of dropping them on the hot zone and had to drag with minimal pause. Sometimes I would drag a set of files, pause for a second or two and the "Drop Here" window would disappear. My only critique of FilePane is the duration of the "Drop Here" window can be frustratingly short when you are working in a large Finder window that is filled with files. It also works in web browsers and document editors, allowing you to perform actions on the text and images that you select and drag. It works in other apps and it is not constrained to only the Finder, though that is where it is most useful. The app allows me to enter in the dimensions and provides an option to make it proportionate, which is useful if I want an image that is 600 pixels wide and an appropriately scaled height.įilePane is reliable - it hasn't crashed nor affected the performance of my Mac because it is so lightweight. For example, I often drag an image file and choose to resize it. Once you have identified the appropriate action for your file, you can then select it and follow the prompts to complete it. convert it to PDF (text documents only).share on Twitter/Facebook (images only).The app supports images, text documents, multiple files and folders and provides with the following choices: You can find this icon list by opening the app in the menu bar and clicking on the question mark. Most are self-explanatory, but I did find myself having the consult the cheat sheet provided with the app. The available options for each file(s) appear as icons, which makes it difficult when you start using the app. You can disable notifications at any time in your settings menu.
