Questions for ex TC users :)

[DuxX]

Hi there, I am new in XYPlorer and I have some question for more experienced users:

- can I enable somehow right mouse drag and (de)select function like in Total Commander?
- how to edit right click contex menu to show option for file or folder scan with my antivirus?
- is there any plugin to help me to see thumbnails for Canon raw files .cr2 and .cr3?
- is it possible to synchronize two folders with choice of which file types I want to be synchronized?

That's all ... for now
Best regards

Well, I don't know TC, so what is this function?

If I hold right mouse button and drag mouse over file(s), that file become selected or deselected if he was previously selected. So basically it is very easy to select large amount of different files in list while mouse cursor going over them just by holding and releasing right mouse button.
Also you can select and deselect one single file just by clicking right mouse button. If you hold right mouse button without moving it for a short time you will popup standard context menu.

Thanks to all for answers. I like some features of XYplorer but also need some functionality I have asked for. I'll check for codecs and I can try that THING with scripting

Xyplorer does select/deselect files by left or right click dragging. If you want to select additional files not contiguous with the previous selection, you'll have to hold down the control key while drag selecting or clicking single files. The context menu comes up if you right click drag but that can be ignored to select additional files. If after making a selection, you're initiating a file copy/move op by dragging you may have to hit Esc to remove the context menu when using right click dragging but not if you use left click drag and drop. (i.e., the context menu will go away).

It seems that option is not enabled by default, at least not in my case 8/ ...

Thanks

Yes, selection of files using the mouse work should work as a default. I don' t know about TC, but have you tried from Windows File Explorer. You can take a look at all the XYplorer Configuration settings under Tools | Configuration | General | Mouse, Menu, Safety, but nothing there that should disable selection by dragging that I can tell. Take a look also at all the settings under Tools | Customize List and make sure Sticky Selection or Checkbox selection are not checked.
