Thumbnails keep getting re-generated in one folder

[Using 23.90.300] I have one folder with over 5,000 images that keeps having its thumbnails getting regenerated every time I visit the folder. Other sibling folders - all controlled by one wild-carded folder view set at the common parent - do not have this problem. I don't see what setting I have th...

Re: How to Avoid Delays in Popup Menus with External Drive Paths for Asleep Drives?

Starting with v23.70.0353, the use of generic icons in the menus is now optionable with a tweak:
PopupMenusGenericIcons=1
So if you set that to 0, you should get the other icons back.

Thank you!

Re: How to Avoid Delays in Popup Menus with External Drive Paths for Asleep Drives?

Ok, I've been using v23.70.0344 a bit and the change you made seems to be working for Recent Locations, Favorite Folders and Favorite Files. The menus are always popping up without delay even when I know there's a sleeping drive because when I select a path to one of them, I can hear the drive start...

Will do.

Re: How to Avoid Delays in Popup Menus with External Drive Paths for Asleep Drives?

The menus where I have the problem all just contain paths. Some of the paths in the Favorite Folders menu use the volume name instead of the drive letter, but the Favorite Files and Recent Locations menus all have regular paths. Would it be possible to have an option that displays these menus withou...

Re: How to Avoid Delays in Popup Menus with External Drive Paths for Asleep Drives?

That's good. I think I can do something about the problem (which annoys me as well). Takes some more tests... You don't happen to know how to put a drive to sleep actively? It's tiring to wait for that to happen... Oh, wunderbar! I look forward to your remedy. No, I'm not aware of how to forcibly s...

The Type is "Local Disk" for all of them, whether they are attached directly to a computer port or via a powered hub.

Re: How QuickSearch with multiple paths OR Specific file name contains

Hi, First off, you need to disable extended pattern matching, apparently because of the presence of the # character. You can do that globally in settings or just for this search by appending /matching=n to the end of the search expression. Beyond that, I'm not sure exactly why, but it seems the pare...

How to Avoid Delays in Popup Menus with External Drive Paths for Asleep Drives?

[Using 23.60.0100] I may have asked this before, but have to ask it again, because this is a continually excruciating problem I have with over 2 dozen attached drives, most of which go to sleep when after a timeout of inactivity. On popup menus with paths - such as Favorite Folders, Recent File Oper...

Script for Scrolling List to Top, Regardless of Focus

Hi,
Can anybody provide or point me to a thread to see a script for scrolling the List to the very top, regardless of the current focus?

Re: Color Filter Not Working Anymore: attr:junction AND prop:#HardLinks:>=1

Yep, good clue. Since 20220811, if hardlinks are asked from junctions, those junctions are resolved and the hardlinks of their targets are returned. I guess that does not make sense in your case? I guess not. Is there any other way to set up this filter with the 20220811 changes? I have a folder wi...

Re: Color Filter Not Working Anymore: attr:junction AND prop:#HardLinks:>=1

Cannot explain. Check your other color filters. All my other color filters are working as configured. I tried moving this filter to the very top of the list but still no show. When I hover over the mount point, the tooltip says: "Hard Links: The system cannot find the file specified." Cou...
