For the preview window, it would be totally awesome if it would do syntax coloring for items identified as source code - sort of in the line of the QLColorCode Quicklook generator (http://code.google.com/p/qlcolorcode/).

When Quick View is used to view a folder, we see nothing but a large folder icon. We should be able to see the contents of the folder. This can be done a la the Terminal-enabled Finder feature called "X-Ray Folders," or a more utilitarian list view, or icons, etc.

Previewing documents is an essential function in PF. Support for OpenDocument files (ods, odt, ods) is not available yet. More and more this file format is recognised as the open standard of the future in businesses who don't want to be locked into MS products.

Path Finder has the amazing ability to be able to preview a large variety of files, which saves time by not having to open the files.

I would like to be able to preview all my Open Office and Libre Office files.

SpotInside, a free product from a Japanese coder, can view Entourage email files. Please add to Path Finder 5.

Even previewing on the iPhone allows you to select the worksheet for viewing. PF needs to bump up the previewing capabilities...

Path Finder supports preview of Apple Safari webarchive format. Would be nice to preview the open standards MAFF or MHTML as well.

In the original Finder I am able to run over pages in documents using the cover flow view.
It would be great having this feature in Path Finder.

I'd like to be able to set the Preview Pane so that large files (user would would be able to define "large") do NOT preview. I often work with documents that are 1Gb in size, and Path Finder bogs down trying to render the preview of those files. Further, some file types will fit the preview to the Pane size, while others (PDF most notably) show at full size, requiring me to scroll around a lot in the Preview Pane.

If I make hidden folders, files visible, all views are changed. It were nice if this can activated per view.

Would be great if within PathFinder URLs could be previewed and thumbnailed in PDF-format.

Create an automatic "preview" of files via your menu bar access.

In the preview pane, it would be useful if the contents of .eml files displayed properly, just as they are for most file formats.

Allow Path Finder to read JPEG, RAW files that contain EXIF info and display (or at least link) to map view of where the image was taken.

If Path Finder allowed EFIX editing of location (adding/changing) that would be bonus!

For example, I am currently trying to organize a few thousand PDFs that are stored on a file server. The Preview option must be manually selected each time because the files are larger than the automatic Preview network file size limit. In my case, I know that my setup can handle a much larger limit, but there is no way to change it.

The preview window should be able to detect when a large file, such as large pdf files (more than 5 or 6 MB), were selected in order not to block temporarily the Path Finder (sometimes several minutes) . Therefore, it could warn about possible consequences of continuing with that option

I use dual pane mode to compare folder contents and copy/paste between them. What often makes this fantastic feature unusable is that the preview pane will get focused in the the left pane, which leaving the view that I really want which is the contents of the entire folder. It would be nice to be able to disable previews for the left pane so that all this jumping around does not occur.

Applications like DevonThink do have prview functionality for many times of file formates including weblinks (URLs). Would be greate if Path Finder has this feature as well.
