Description registersh 2011-04-27 06:46:36 UTC

When opening a remote project, (in my case, it is a php project that locates on a remote server), the dialog will be frozen as it seems busy in looking up remote folder. This is not necessary and it causes the opening dialog can not continue if remote project opening is very slow.

It should look up remote folder only after user input focus is switched, and it should be a background job that can be interrupted by user. Please don't hold the IDE to waiting for internet operations and without any indicator. 

Thanks,
Andrew.

The dialog should also work in the way that will download only the level of the folders, that are needed.

Which dialog exactly is frozen? Are we talking about new PHP project from remote server? Can you provide exact steps to reproduce, please?

Thanks a lot.

Closing as INCOMPLETE since I really don't know which dialog are you talking about (read my previous comment please). Please, reopen this issue and provide requested information.

Thanks a lot.
