Color Filter text search

I am sure this is easy but I just can't figure it out. I want to color code folders containing the dash "-" character. I've tried "-" and this works for files but not folders, I tried "attr:d:-" and that changed every folder. It doesn't matter if the code changes files ...

Sort folders and files mixed together

Is there a way in Details or List views to sort alphabetically by Name and not have all the folders grouped together at the top and files underneath but instead have files and folders mixed and simply listed alphabetically?

Search folder names only

Is there a way to do a quick search or filter that only searches folder names and ignores filenames. I couldn't find anything in the help files or searching the forum. I know a normal search will find folders but when there are lots and lots of folders and many many subfolders not to mention 1000s a...

Re: Exact Quick Search

I actually tried that, as mentioned in my post I also tried it on Beta Club website and it didn't work there either but... having tried it again in XYplorer it does work - I must have done something wrong the first time I tried it in Quick Search - my bad. Thank you for your reply @highend, I guess ...

Exact Quick Search

How do I do a quick search for what I ask for. The help instructions in Quick Search are incorrect ! Help says... readme.txt = Find all files called readme.txt ( this should say "containing readme.txt" a duplicate of the next line! ) black = Find all items containing 'black' in the name Fo...

Re: Quick Search sort order

Thank you @highend that does the trick.

I assume this means there is no 'switch' one can use in the search string for those searches that require a different sort field?

Quick Search sort order

Using Quick Search it always sorts the results alphabetically. When searching *.jpg on a folder with subfolders one can end up with search results being jumbled up. The best way to solve this is to sort the results by the path field. However, this only affects the current sort results, Quick search ...

Re: Folder with folder thumbnail

The solution to the "empty or not" folder icon problem is so simple... After following this thread for sometime and making some of the earlier suggested changes I have thrown them all out and gone back to the default. Why? Because I prefer the larger thumbnails the default creates compared...

Re: Custom Copy Operations

I don't know how I achieved that - I simply clicked on the image button which produced the "img" tags and I inserted the URL between them and submitted.

Thanks for tidying it up for me.

Re: How to rename default 'New Folder' to something else.

Thanks @highend that worked perfectly.
Both would be possible.
Are you able to shed some light on how to set up a keyboard short-cut to an individual "New Item" as well as I suspect that could be useful.

Thanks

Re: Custom Copy Operations

Have I done something wrong - this is the first time I've posted an attachment and I can see two copies - can everyone see two or is this because I posted it that only I can see two?
