In ForkLift 4 beta 5, we have changed the Sync Window again and we have made improvements to the toolbar.
During sync, you can exclude empty folders, which makes the synchronization of filtered subitems possible without the need to synchronize empty folders as well.
In the toolbar, one big improvement is that the option to search doesn’t disappear even when you make the window very narrow, you can also search when only text is being displayed in the Toolbar.
There are numerous other improvements and fixes in this beta version as well.
