Make Version and Meta data selectable...

Sometimes it's necessary to copy, for example, a file's version number.

If you made that text selectable, not necessarily editable, that would make it more convenient and error-free than retyping the numbers.

Thanks!

Re: EXIF data report

Thanks, highend... I tried EXIFTOOL but I could not see a way to do multiple items at once. And I have to admit that I'm a GUI person (note my username!) and don't do well with command lines. I tried the EXIFTOOL GUI that someone wrote, but can't get it to work. At any rate, I have a whole bunch (50...

EXIF data report

Is there a way, script or otherwise, to show/report ALL the EXIF data for a group of photos?

I need this for legal purposes even though I'm just a private individual.

Thanks...

Re: Add a divider line between Info Panel and Files

Ahhh...stealth configuration! :roll:

That makes the physical target larger but does not have the affordance of a visual cue (which is preferred in terms of software design for accessibility). But it beats a blank.

THANKS!

Re: Add a divider line between Info Panel and Files

I'm adding to this thread years later because I found it in my quest to find an answer to an accessibility problem: When applying the tweak + Tweak TabIPVisualStyle got a new style/value 3: TabIPVisualStyle=3 that only makes the border darker ; it does not make it thicker . For someone who has issue...

Re: Does not display PDF preview

When I was using Foxit PDF, I could view PDF files without issue. I had both Office Files and *.PDF ticked (under previewed formats). I recently changed to NitroPDF and now cannot view PDF files inside XY. Is there a "magic number" I can use to make it work as in an earlier post? BTW, how ...

Re: MS Edge problem: fix with script?

I'm desperately trying to avoid Win11. Too many downsides in the UI, especially the nested context menus for copy, etc.

BTW, does XY overcome that? If so, that could be be a game changer...

Re: MS Edge problem: fix with script?

Thanks Highend...
I'll take a look at AHK for that. I use it all the time anyway, so it's always loaded. I'll just have to figure out how to make that happen.

Thanks again...

MS Edge problem: fix with script?

MS Edge insists (and there's no other way according to MS :twisted: ) on opening PDF files in its own internal viewer unless you opt to download it. But then there's the extra step to go to the download folder and manually open it with the preferred/default PDF application. Could a script be the ans...

Re: What can Virtual Folders do?

What constitutes a one line script? Does it have to be a file?

I’m wondering if there is a way to make text copied to the clipboard into some kind of “thing“ that XY will treat as a one line script.

Re: What can Virtual Folders do?

I rarely place complete files or folders on the clipboard. It’s usually snippets of text or images, so does that mean that they will not appear in this virtual folder? After thinking about your response, I guess snippets of text or images are not in the file system, so therefore, they won’t appear i...
