Dear Cent Browser Developers,
 
Again, Thank all you for "Most Feature Rich Chromium" that overstep the limits of a few programmer and short time.
 
I'd wrote this topic my (two) suggestions. Now is the time to request my suggestions that I've noted in the past. I hope that my suggestions will be of benefit to many users.
 
* An Extra Feature for Video Popup Windows: "External Media/Video Player"
Many video-media streaming sites uses own player(HTML5 or Flash). But in most cases the streaming isn't good (Of course, except that they can't buffer because of the bandwidth limited). Personally, I play direct the video URL of webpages on the Potplayer. Certainly better than the sites' internal players. You may add to CentBrowser the prefering External Video Player Software. Cent's task is capture the direct link of the videos and refer it to the player by the user preferred (VLC, MPC, Kodi, etc).
 
* Sorry, I've asked many times "Display the other search engines in multiple columns" request. If you added to Cent this feature one day, CB can fit more than 40 search engine entires to desktop screen (My desktop resulation: 1280x1024). For now, it's necessary click to the scroll down icon for select to be able to choose what is left under the list. Plus, CentBrowser can be display as prefix the favicon.ico of search engines in list (if favicon URL submitted in the WebData file).
 
* Need POST function for search function of some webpages. For example: Myepisodes. I submitted to my WebData file the following search entry:
Code:
javascript:'<html><body onload="document.forms[0].submit()"><form action="http://myepisodes.com/search/" method="POST"><input name="tvshow" value="%s" type="hidden"></form></body></html>'

I know this isn't working because of security. Is it possible to add an command line for work?
 

* If clicked right button to the mouse, CB opens context menu. Okay. Also CB looks external download manager entries from Registry. That entries:
Code:
HKCU\Software\Classes\ThunderAgent.Agent64
HKCR\ThunderAgent.Agent64
HKCU\Software\Classes\QQIEHelper.QQRightClick
HKCR\QQIEHelper.QQRightClick
HKCU\Software\Classes\FdmCreateDownloadsManager
HKCR\FdmCreateDownloadsManager
HKCU\Software\Classes\FdmCreateDownloadsManager
HKCR\FdmCreateDownloadsManager
HKCU\Software\Classes\WG.WGUrlReceiver
HKCR\WG.WGUrlReceiver
HKCU\Software\Classes\Dapie.Catcher
HKCR\Dapie.Catcher

Can be added to "don't discover external download managers when opening context menu" feature?
 

* Can be added to "Select All" feature to chrome://history . For example, the user any a word in chrome://history and want to histories remove all listed. It's really hard to choose each one individually.
 
* More Feature for chrome://settings/clearBrowserData. For example, all removing push-notifications stores files. I prepared this batch file for cleaning. Very personal. No side-effects but expect broken my push-notifications (Although not deleting "GCM Store" and "Service Worker"). Especially, the messenger.com's notifications never working (despite it applied). But the logged in Facebook.com, notifications displays (Maybe this issue belongs to Facebook).
 
* SuperDrag issues (or restrictions?): 
a) On this site headlines (1 to 20) can't working "Copy text and URL" (<--).
b) If select the code area all contexts of this site, "Copy link text" (Nudge up) can't copied to clipboard all selected contexts.
 
* a Bug (?): If clicked ccroll wheel (mouse button) to a bookmark when any a subfolder of chrome://bookmarks/, CB jumps search bar.
 
I'm sorry my English grammar.
Best regards...
Thanks for your detailed suggestion.
You're welcome. 

Thank you very much for ...

* "Reorder by title" item in bookmarks context menu
* Mouse gesture action "Clear cache and reload"
* Option "Run Flash Player in sandbox"
* "Start finding selected text immediately while pressing CTRL+F/G"
* ... Also, new all features that I forgot to written here, too.


Now, I will have a few additional notes, feedbacks.

1) Preventing self-dowload dictionary file If the Spellcheck already turn-off. Despite the "Dictionaries" folder again created within binary folder. Of course, it's empty.

Likewise, the "Crashpad" empty folder in %localappdata%\CentBrowser, despite that command lines: --database="..\profile\Default\Crashpad" --crash-dumps-dir="..\profile\Default\Crashpad" in the cb_config.ini

2) About Support relative path: This new feature doesn't working switches in cb_config.ini. For example:
Quote:--user-data-dir="..\profile" --data-path="..\profile"

Still need full path. Besides, Cent can't detect relative paths in cb_config.ini when click to a HTML file or URL in desktop even if Cent is completely closed.

3) Activated to 'Paste on middle click'. After, press to middle button of mouse while in any a subfolder of the Bookmark menu. Result: Cent opens search bar.

4) (Definitely you've noticed that): If "Enable suggestions bar" unticked, the omnibox became Google search-box, therefore hotkeys of search-engine can't working. I think, this feature would be named as "Disable suggestions bar".

5) Can't working as copy text line (SuperDrag -> arrow): On view-source:_____ ..... any a URL.


And a few minor suggestions:

* The Save As part for the Built-in downloader: The use can be manually add path/name/folder...

* Audio mute feature already supported. Maybe, is it possible stoppage feature for video-streamings, too? 

* Chromium supports:
Quote:Open the link in a new tab in the background: Press Ctrl and click a link
Open the link in a new tab and switch to the new tab: Press Ctrl + Shift and click a link
Open the link in a new window: Press Shift and click a link

Despite this hotkeys working even if Bookmark menu, can't working in "search other engines for ..." context menu of Cent. I'm sorry about that; my third wish for "search other engines for". Confused

Kind regards...
