Filter (list only) folders that contain a specific file type?

[Megalith]

Can the visual filter be configured to list only folders that contain a specific file type, like PDFs?

Afaik no,
but you could use a script that shows these (subfolders of the current path!) folders
in a paperfolder...

Code: Select all

    $matches = quicksearch("*.pdf /f /maxdepth=1 /limitperdir=1");
    paperfolder("PDF", regexreplace($matches, "\\[^\\]+(\r?\n|$)", <crlf>));

Thanks, but your script doesn't seem to do anything other than bring up a popup menu with those two lines of code. Maybe I'm doing it wrong...

Indent both lines by at least one space (they were posted with 4)

Awesome, thank you.
