Set Folder View via script

[jaywalker32]

Is there a script command for setting and getting Folder Views? Esp for paper folders? Don't see anything in the docs.
Eg. If was want to create a paper folder from a search result, but also set it's folder view to Thumbnail view, sorted by Name.

I can get the command id to pop up the FolderView settings gui. But is there a way to set it programmatically?

Something like

Code: Select all

folderView("c:\wallpapers", "thumbnails #1", "name")

Or even a text file I can edit? But I think they're stored in fvs.dat, so maybe not.

Folder views entries aren't scriptable but you can use CEAs (Changing Locations - After painting the file list) events to get / set whatever you need (view() / sortby())
