![]() That would take us many years considering application size and resources we have and we probably wouldn’t survive that long. We couldn’t just start redesigning and rewriting everything from scratch. However, Path Finder is too large and complex to bring it there in just one step. Introducing version 8! It is our attempt to give Path Finder new shine, get it out of its adolescence and bring it into its twenties. Path Finder 5: Drawers and CoverFlow, the very first 3rd party application having it, back in 2008. But with the latest macOS updates we have finally come to the inevitable going back to the drawing board and give Path Finder the proper overhaul it needed for a long time. We tried to postpone it as much as we could in a passionate desire to offer yet a few new features, so we kept patching and finding workarounds for unsupported and obsolete stuff. The moment of imminent redesign and rewrite was getting closer. With each major release of macOS, the application was getting more lines of obsolete code, deprecated APIs and officially unsupported features. ![]() ![]() In this constant race for more features, while becoming more powerful and rich, Path Finder was also becoming increasingly aged. And we were adding more and more… Until we couldn’t keep doing it that way any longer. We got ourselves into a constant drag race between features people wanted and those we could implement in a given time. People were asking for more and we were delivering more. During all those years, Path Finder was becoming more powerful, functional, configurable and feature rich. The name was clearly telling people what the application did (and we also got tired of the old SNAX name as well). This popular feature led to a name change, hence Path Finder. SNAX 1: List view was the only option back in 2001.Īnother nice feature people immediately liked was the Path Navigator (later transformed into both clickable and editable path bar).
