Viewer Improvements.

I took my iPad to a meeting today to show progress on various parts of a project I am working on, I had a whole list of things to discuss, but the side of my hand accidentally glanced the 'clear list' button and . . . . . wham! . . . everything was deleted.

I'm not aware of any other system that allows you to delete large swathes of data or multiple files without even a basic warning dialogue ("Are you sure you want to delete these files ? Delete / Cancel").

In the end it wasn't such a big deal as I'd managed to show a few things before the Doomsday button got pressed, but it would be good to have a warning dialogue so you can back out of an accidental press.

Also it would be great if we could delete individual files from the viewer's list, a left swipe bringing up a red 'delete' button like elsewhere in iOS would be great.

    Yep, agreed, ad-hoc is the way if you want rock solid-delete-proof-ness™, but I'm throwing 20 to 30 GS files over to my iPad/s at a time, I don't know too much about how to make an adhoc but I've heard it takes a bit longer than the 10 seconds it takes to send your file to your iPad via the viewer (????).

    Regardless, the two improvements (delete files dialogue and individual file deletion) would be a useful addition for the viewer.
