Why not make an option to hide the adressbar but add a custom adressbar into the menubar? Then the back forward and up buttons from classicshell are skinnable and can be made for fitting our themes well |

It would require coding an entirely new explorer; or hooking. Both are a lot of work, and potentially buggy. Classic shells primary focus is the start menu, though if at some point Ivo decides to re-expand his focus, this option will likely be considered (and it has been asked before) |

that program probably does it by hooking into explorer (I could be wrong because I hardly know what i'm talking about) which is something Ivo stated he is uncomfortable doing because it introduces a lot of potential issues; though he has added features that require a specific mod to function; specifically the "aero glass" mod; which means he might be willing to add a feature that works in conjunction with another mod, if he sees it as important. He may have left on vacation already, so its possible he wont respond for a while (if he doesn't respond after 3 weeks, I would suggest bumping the thread) |
