    I have already a .trashcan directory with a shortcut to Ambient Desktop. Is it ok to install it? Is there a max size of the trashcan virtual volume it creates?

    Sounds like you need to drag the Trashcan icon from MyMorphOS to the desktop.

    TrashFileSystem creates .mtrash directories, so there's no conflict there. There's no maximum size of a trashcan - it's merely limited by the volumes you trash files on. They remain in .mtrash directory on each volume until restored or the trashcan is emptied.

    I see the context menu but no desktop icon. If I look at MyMorphOS I dont see any trashcan icon either. If I change to List view mode I can see the Trashcan volume but without icon.

    If you doubleclick in the desktop (or Ambient Menu/MyMorphOS...) a window will be open. Thats the MyMorphOS window with your devices, assigns, etc...

    A special note for people already using MorphOS 3.10.

    Do not install this archive! Wait for the next beta iso.

    If you install this archive you downgrade vital components of the system to 3.9, which causes other parts to fail.

    An icon isn't part of the archive. I'm no artist and this isn't part of my bounty obligations. There's lot of stuff here for example: http://findicons.com/search/trash

    Also, there is currently no support for empty/full icons since Ambient doesn't support notifications on disk.info changes.

    It works, but has a small flaw. When restoring an object from Thrash I get an Ambient Error Requester:

    "Couldn't restore trashed icon of file 'blabla.png'. DOS error: invalid object lock (#211).".

    It's a simple .png file without an .info-File. The .png file itself gets restored properly anyhow.

    Thanks a lot jacapcaps for this update! It's good feature for MorphOS 3.10 :-D

    What must be the name for the trashcan icon when it's not empty please ?

    I can restore when the view is by name but not when it by icon (same error 211 from precedent post), normal ?

    Can i distribute a version with icons preinstalled ?

    Thanks for your answers.

    The icon sits in MOSSYS:Data/TrashFS. Simply snapshot the volume or put a new icon in the Ambient's information window and it'll get saved there.

    That's fixed. Redownload the archive.

    As long as you have the right to distribute the icon file :)

    The filesystem has support for 2 icons, but it's been disabled since Ambient doesn't handle that.

    Thank you very much - nice work. I instaled it and seems to be good. BTW I copied the picture of trashcan from the top of this topic and made it an icon - I hope it is legal :)

    Uploaded one more build - dual icon mode is back and Ambient will refresh the icon on desktop (does not work for MyMorphOS lister views).

    Happy New Year :)

    One small update: Ambient listers can now have a Trash button. I've also changed the disk.info file location (moved them to Deficons), so you might need to copy your files over.
