Add 'Created date' to info when Custom Copying ?

Post by SL09 »

For copying files, I only use 'Custom Copy' (for fotos) because it maintains the 'Created date' of the file instead of setting it to the timeDate of the copying. This is sort of a killer feature ...
Would it be possible to show also the info 'Created date' in addition to filename, file type, size and the date of the last change ?

Since it's comparison for rewrite, i'd find this info useful too.

Not convinced. Would overload the dialog without much gain. But later, after twinBasic, we could add access to the shell properties dialog for both items.

This sounds like a good compromise.

I CAN imagine someone being interested in various file info we might not care about much... Or most people might not.

But I think it's a good idea, if you got a good idea how to implement something like that (access to shell properties) in twinBasic, I'd totally agree, if you say, we'll keep that in mind and add it once XYplorer has been transformed to twinBasic.

> overload the dialog
logically, I disagree ... I see a nice small dialog, with a long first line (file type) I don't need
OK, it was only a wish - christmas is over
> once XYplorer has been transformed to twinBasic
?? :shock:
sounds difficult. Is this possible in the _near_ future ?
