Description
The Home tab is the primary workspace in RcloneView and currently includes:
Sync |
Compare |
Job Manager |
New Window
However, some users prefer quicker access to tools like:
-
New Remote -
Mount Manager -
General Settings
This feature will introduce a simple favorites system that lets users:
-
Add any button from other tabs (Remote, Settings, Help) to the Home Toolbar -
Remove default buttons they donโt use -
Save a custom Home layout to match personal workflows
No drag-and-drop or full layout editor โ just click โAdd to Homeโ or โRemove from Homeโ per tool.
Usage Scenarios
Example 1: Remote Power User
Alice frequently mounts remotes and manages cloud connections.
She customizes her Home tab to show:

Job Manager
Example 2: Settings-Focused Admin
