Feature Req: Profile Sets

The Acrosync Profiles are great, but I have 3 different NAS's that I back up to (home and away) and each has 2-5 different root directories to backup. There's no room for all of the profile tabs at the top of the app, unless I make it super wide...and even then all 15 tabs barely fit. So in addition to having a better way to select profiles it would be GREAT to have a single (or more) profile set for each NAS that I backup to for both ease of organizing and ease of running a set of backups against a single devices with one click (instead of manually starting each profile I could just start the set of profiles). To help with the tab display issue, here are a few different UI ideas:

1) Be able to group profiles into sets and each set has a drop down list of tabbed/selectable profiles
2) Make the tabs scrollable (like Firefox some firefox extensions) so that you can scroll and access all the tabs (somewhat cumbersome but at least I would be able to access all of them without making the app window super wide
3) Make additional rows of tabs as needed when a row of tabs fills up the screen width.

Thanks again for having the ONLY truly GREAT RSYNC app for Windows!

  • 2 is probably what I'm going to do.  Long term, I do have an idea on how to present many profiles in a concise interface, however that requires a complete rewrite of the interface and thus takes a long time.
