New user loving Xyplorer! Here's my 1 wish

Post by mdv409 »

I was a powerdesk user for many years and the only thing I'm missing is a "select all" button on the toolbar. I can right click on a blank spot to get the select all function in the drop down but sometimes there's not much blank space available to click in when you're in a directory with a large # of files.

Thanks!!

Hi!

What about Ctrl+A?! Works fine and takes no screen space. :)

If you have the pro version with scripting, you can add a user button to the toolbar and set it to execute the script command "sel a" to select all, or "sel f" to select all files (no folders).

Btw, would it be possible to get an option to set an action for middle-clicking on a menu button as well?

Hi mdv, welcome.

You can right click on the numbers at the numbers column on the left to get the same context menu.

Thanks a million for that! I was just looking into the scripting function. You've made it much easier. Worked like a charm.
