Couple Questions

[eurytos]

1) cntrl-f and associated panel. I would prefer it to initially display blank (ie: new search), as it is now I need to reset filters whenever I start a new search. Also, is it possible to make it tab independent? Basically if I am in the third tab and hit cntrl-f I do not want the panel to be displayed when I click on the first or second tab.

2) Keep default view when navigating even if I have selected a different sort previously. I prefer to sort on name but I also compare modification times alot and I would prefer if it defaulted back to name when I navigate again instead of modification time.

3) is it possible to define the ini path in order to use multiple ini files. Using on XYplorer on a thumb drive I would like to be able to use different ini files depending on where I am. most notably home and work. I have a ton of shortcuts, shares, etc that will not work at home and vise versa so it would be nice to have XYplorer on the thumb drive and then have different shortcuts for each one. For instance:
Work shortcut: xyplorer.exe "path\to\ini\file\for\work"
Work shortcut2: xyplorer.exe "path\to\ini\file\for\work2"
Home shortcut: xyplorer.exe "path\to\ini\file\for\home"
etc

4) This is probably scripting related. Is it possible to setup a keyboard shortcut (or context menu) to send a selected file to a specific application. In this case SQL Query Analyzer but.

Currently, the Info Panel is global for all tabs so that any changes made to its display applies to all tabs...I recall that there has been discussion about changing that, but I'm not sure about status of that or which thread to point you to right now.

I presume you've looked at this part of wiki?
http://88.191.26.34/XYwiki/index.php/Co ... On_Startup
And then having those as various shortcuts on the thumb drive...

Not sure if that solves your problem, but it's closest that I know of.

oh I missed that!

yeah this is exactly what I was looking for:

XYplorer /ini=MyConfig "D:\Folder\My Stuff" Will start XYplorer, loading MyConfig.ini as configuration file, and set the location to D:\Folder\My Stuff

Scripting is not needed -- Simply create a UDC of type "Open With" and assign a shortcut to it.

I guess this will be covered in the (hopefully near ) future with "CFV" (Custom Folder Views... The name is still subject to change). Check the link in my signature for one of the threads where this feature request was discussed.

Yes. Sorry, Pagat, Scripting came in the way...

No problem. I'm quite happy with scripting too. Still need to check out the full power of it, though.

Btw: Happy carnival . At work, i'm in contact with a company located in Cologne and they said there are only a few people availabe on Wednesday

That will work (in a different manner) but I was hoping to be able to use the existing query analyzer I have open. If I drag a .sql file into my query analyzer it (for lack of a better term) creates a 'new document' inside my current window and uses the current settings for server and database. The open with approach requires me to re-enter the server and database. I will play around with the command line options for query analyzer and see what I can come up with.

Thanks,
