How do I remove those annoying animations?
If the mouse-over animation is annoying to you, you can cancel or activate it from the Configure/Colors panel.
How do I temporarily hide those large files?
Sometimes a very large file can prevent you from seeing smaller files. This can be annoying, but using file tags can solve the problem.
Simply set a tag|:red that does not include a filter (e.g. to hide the red marker file).
Then, simply hover over the annoying file and press CTRL+1 or just 1 to filter the field without focus.
The file has been marked and will disappear, thus showing more space for smaller files.
When you have had enough, simply delete the file filter to see everything again. If you wish to display only the marked files, convert the exclude filter in the include filter by removing the start pipe character.
