Re: Script to Customize a Folder as Picture with Image File?

This would take the first .jpg image from a folder (if 00.jpg) does NOT exist. It would still skip the entire folder if no .jpg files are in it . . . For whatever reason, the first script in this post works as a button and as a script file, at least in the case of a 00.jpg file being present. I hav...

Re: Script to Customize a Folder as Picture with Image File?

And you are 100% sure, that these selected folders really contain a picture named "00.jpg"? Otherwise the creation of a desktop.ini is skipped for these folders! Highend, Most of them do, and certainly the ones I have been working with in testing this. I still haven't figured out why a sc...

Re: Script to Customize a Folder as Picture with Image File?

The new button appears to work, but it does not create or change an INI file, or alter the folder view in any way. I set the XYplorer attributes to run as an administrator, just to be sure it has all the necessary authorizations, and tried again; same results. Your script used to produce: [ViewState...

Re: Script to Customize a Folder as Picture with Image File?

Highend, Your script worked well, until today. Now it is failing altogether. The error message I get: "Resource does not contain any valid scripts. The script is terminating now." I have been selecting Scripting->Load Script File, then Scripting->Run Script, which had been working flawless...

Re: Script to Customize a Folder as Picture with Image File?

Highend,

Absolutely dandy, thank you very much. Oddly, I don't see any changes on refresh, but entering an altered folder and then backing one step up the tree shows the alterations of all. Definitely a huge time-saver. A donation will be forthcoming.

Re: Script to Customize a Folder as Picture with Image File?

By doing what, changing / creating a desktop.ini file for each of them? I had in mind using something along the lines of a simple batch-rename script, yet somehow passing parameters to change folder attributes accordingly. I think I see a capability of retrieving a next-in-line folder path, and the...

Script to Customize a Folder as Picture with Image File?

Hello, newbie here, and I'm fumbling with scripting, on a Windows 7 PC, XYplorer 18.90.0100. I have a bunch of folders containing image files; is there some way to script a batch folder customization to set each selected folder to Type=Picture, and PictureFile=<folder>/00.jpg? Any help would be grea...
