Aurigma Image Uploader 4.8 Dual
Two Panes Layout
See Also

Two panes mode is a classic layout which came from Aurigma Image Uploader 1.0 for ActiveX. Usage experience shows that it is the friendliest to computer novices. In this mode, on the left side one see the folder tree and on the right side—the content of the selected folder. The user simply needs to check all files they want to upload and click the Send button.

Note
The only shortcoming of this layout is that when the user navigates to another folder, the checked files become unchecked, so the files can be uploaded only from one folder at a time.

Here is how Image Uploader looks in different operating systems when working in this mode.
