Re: Color Filters: Showing Mount Folders That Actually Have Mounted Drives

What do you get here in either case? exist "<path to folder...>"; So, there are 2 subfolders, MUSIC 7,8-BK and MUSIC 3,4-BK. Only the first subfolder has an external drive currently mounted under it. For that, exist reports: Path: U:\DRIVES\MUSIC 7,8-BK Real Path: U:\DRIVES\MUSIC 7,8-BK E...

Re: Color Filters: Showing Mount Folders That Actually Have Mounted Drives

There is even a default color filter for that... attr:junction Ah, I forgot to mention that I am using that filter already but it does not distinguish between mount points with currently mounted drives and those with placeholders. For example, in folders that have been mount points previously, but ...

Color Filters: Showing Mount Folders That Actually Have Mounted Drives

I have a folder called DRIVES under which I have different subfolders that I use to mount external drives. At any time, only a few subfolders actually have external drives mounted under them. Is there a color filter expression that can indicate which of these subfolders actually have mounted drives?...

Re: Question about tabs and windows

Is there a way to open a folder in a new tab by just double clicking on it? I see i can do it by holding shift or right clicking on it In Settings > General > Custom Event Actions > Clicking on Items you can open a new tab (background or foreground) by middle-clicking on it, which is the next best ...

Floating Preview: Option to Keep Focus in List When First Launching

I am always launching the Floating Preview window on an image file in order to then rename the parent folder based on information I see in the image. But I have to switch back to the list to do this once the FP window comes up. This is very cumbersome to have to do all the time, even with a keyboard...

Re: Search and Replace: Ii/II doesn't work for IIi

Nope, it has nothing to do with the space. Since your replace operation is case-insensitive in both cases the red pair of "ii" is replaced by "II". In the second run you don't note it because it is already "II": "AAa II i Xxx" So you are saying that since cas...

Re: Search and Replace: Ii/II doesn't work for IIi

What we have here might be undesirable but it's not an inconsistency but a logical outcome of case-insensitive matching and the standard replacement rules (which are not recursive = do not replace again what has been replaced). ATM I see no way to improve the situation. The /c switch is the way to ...

Ok, that works for dealing with the second case. I assume you regard the inconsistency as undesirable.

Search and Replace: Ii/II doesn't work for IIi

[Using 21.80.0200] Came across this unexpected behavior which I don't think is right, unless I am misunderstanding something. 1. Run xyplorer /fresh 2. Create file named "Aaa Iii Xxx" 3. Use Search and Replace to rename Ii/II. It works and you now have "AAa IIi Xxx". 4. Repeat st...

Re: Like a new feature? Say thanks here

Colored Boxed Branches! (An old feature, but I've only just recently started using it.) Very very helpful when you are working with similar or same material on 2 or more different drives and need to clearly keep track of which location you are in at any time. For example, source and backup drives c...

Re: 21.60.0104 - Quick Search Not Working As Before With Escaped Characters

I cannot help you with RegExp but a standard pattern like *)\AltRip\* would return files and be sensitive to the Types dropdown. Ah, right! Ok, never mind that point. On another search-related note - I am seeing problematic search behavior in my custom configuration that I can't reproduce using a /...

Re: 21.60.0104 - Quick Search Not Working As Before With Escaped Characters

BUT NOTE : The results I get in Step #3, are actually not correct. It should have also returned the files a and b. :? I don't understand. (No RegExp man) Actually, since the path pattern does not match against any terminal filename portion, I guess the two files should not be returned. I am not exp...

Something weird is going on. I got it working sometimes (proof screenshot below). Then it stopped working forever. Even after restarting the app. RegExp bug? Yes, I am observing this weirdness as well. I put together the following reproducible situation using xyplorer /fresh, in case this provides ...
