* By default, the current name is automatically shown when saving Store file. Makes the process of Loading and Saving smoother. By default, the name is automatically highlighted so you don't need to delete to type in a new name. Just type and it will automatically overwrite it if you don't want to save the Store with the current name.

0.1 - July 24, 2013
* Initial Release.

Allows you to add selected items into containers called "Store". It is then possible to view all items at once and perform mass action on all items in Store regardless of the items' actual locations on your system such as copy them somewhere else, batch rename them, and more.

Features
☆ Drag & Drop If you use it as a catalog item, it can behave as a drag & drop.
☆ Mass Action Perform mass actions on all items in Store
☆ Save & Load Store Save and Load as man Stores as you want.

The original thread where the development over time occurred is:

Although the script could do some refinements, for what I have been using it for, it works. Therefore just going to leave it as is and just posted in case others find it useful. Well have fun!

Setup
Extract where you want. If you use it as a catalog item, you can even drag items onto to add them to the Store. It can also be used as a Custom User Button with full Drag n' Drop support. When saving a Store, they are always stored in the folder SStore under XYplorer's script folder with the file extension *.sstore.

Hi Enternal, Thanks for sharing. It seems to be working fine. I noticed you said that we can drag and drop if assigned to a catalog item. I haven't looked at the code closely yet, but have you tried setting it up to work (i.e., drag and drop) with a CTB?
Thanks,
Ken

[Enternal]

Haha I never thought about that. Anyway I checked to make sure and drag & drop does indeed work for CTBs. Anyway thank you!

The script isn't working for me ?

[Enternal]

It doesn't? It does not pop any sort of menu or anything? What version of XYplorer are you using?

[CookieMonster]

There isn't any menu that pops up. I'm using XYplorer 12.60.

[Enternal]

How are you loading the file? Did you put it in your Catalog because that's what I had it mind when I wrote it. You're suppose to have it as a catalog item which you can then drag stuff onto it. Another method is selecting items in the list and then use the address bar with the command ::load path\to\SelectionStore.xys; but that's not what I intended it to be used as.

[CookieMonster]

I placed it in a catalog, it worked, except when I tried to place anything in the store, I got the above error, anything I did, resulted in an error.

[Enternal]

I noticed is aid "File: Internal". How about saving SelectionStore.xys (link above) and put the link to the actual script into the catalog. Hopefully it works.

[CookieMonster]

Add the script as an actual catalog item ? If that is what you meant, no success

[Enternal]

Try loading the script into the catalog using a fresh install and see if it works.

2nd, try loading the following file into the catalog again and when the menu pops out, click Error Check. Copy and paste it so that I can see what you get.

There isn't an error, all I get is a list of files that I wanted to store into Selection Store, the information most likely won't be of help to you !

[Enternal]

No. That's what I wanted to see. It said Check Error but it's not supposed to be returning an error. It's supposed to return a list of variables content that I'm using to check to see if the script is loading what it's supposed to do.

[CookieMonster]

The error code is delivered

[Enternal]

So after taking a look at the "Error", it seems for some reason the script is not loaded correctly. Can you try these steps?

1. Download SelectionStore.xys into your XYplorer Data\Scripts\ directory. Basically save it to <xyscripts>
2. In your catalog, right click under any category and click Add New Item Here...
3. Type in:
Caption: Selection Store
Location: ::load "<xyscripts>\SelectionStore.xys"
4. Hit OK
5. Try dragging files onto that new catalog item
6. Click catalog item Selection Store
7. Click "Show Store #1"

Are you getting what you dragged in into it?
