Scripted Commands From Go To UDC

Post by Jeff Bellune »

Syntax in Location Field:

::#534::#1017::#1400

(::#534 is Go To Application Folder, ::#1017 is Focus the Tree, ::#1440 is a "Backup To" UDC)

Current location: Subfolder accessed from Catalog showing in List; Catalog currently has focus.

Execute Go To UDC with syntax as above.

Result: The proper folder is selected in the Tree, the Tree has the focus, and the files/folders contained in the selected Tree folder are showing in the List. But the files that get backed up are the ones from the previous Catalog location.

Suggestion, if you may: How about we have one/two main thread(s) for any scripting issues so we don't end up with dozens of theads? We did that when CKS was in-progress...so we could use this or your other one and just continue those..

Won't that make it nearly impossible to find posts or issues? When I search the forums, I almost always ignore topics that are more than 2 pages deep.

I've found that it's incredibly difficult and time consuming to try to read all of the posts in a multi-page topic to see if the info I need is buried deep within, or, indeed, if any of the posts apply at all.

But I'm the noob here, so I'll play it your way. :)

:oops: Just to make it clear: I'm not a moderator, as Don is the only one with the 'power' here...but having seen what has happened before with a major addition to XY (CKS), this is similar and it's somewhat of a special case...under normal conditions, I'd agree that each bug generally deserves a thread, but when there are likely to be a few bugs all tied to one main topic, I personally think less threads work better...and after the main work is done, then revert back to separate threads...but that's just my $.02!

"Play it your way" was not intended imply that you have moderator powers. It should only imply that you have way more experience than I do. :lol:

After further review, I think my 2 topics could easily be consolidated. Mainly because searches for "Catalog" "Focus" "UDC" "Go" "Location" "Tree" and "List" will return both posts.

Who knows? It may even turn out to be the same bug... :)

Should be fixed in next version.
