Mouse Support

[jht001]

Nimble Commander is a great tool and I'm enjoying using it.
I am often frustrated by being unable to invoke many of the functions using the mouse.
For example, on the Edit manu there is a "select all" option, but no unselect options, in the internal previewer, no way to switch view modes (text,hex,etc) with the mouse but there are key shortcuts to do that.
For heavy mouse users, these changes like these would make Nimble Commander much easier to use:

• More options on the menus for functions that are currently only accessible via key shortcuts
• Have user customizable toolbar that allows any function accessible via a key shortcut to be assigned to a mouse clickable button/icon.
• Mouse clickable options in the internal previewer for changing the view modes.

Hey, welcome!

For example, on the Edit manu there is a "select all" option, but no unselect options,

This menu item is hidden by default to reduce cluttering, it's shown when the Alt modifier is pressed.

in the internal previewer, no way to switch view modes (text,hex,etc) with the mouse but there are key shortcuts to do that.

Hm, clicking on the pop-up list in the bottom-left corner doesn't work?

Mouse clickable options in the internal previewer for changing the view modes.

Nimble Commander's primary UX is built around keyboard navigation, so it's unlikely these areas will be in my focus.
However if somebody would like to work on them and contribute the improvements - you are welcome!

Thanks for the quick reply and pointing out options I've overlooked!
