CFA - script for folders only?

[Marco]

For quick backwards browsing, I'm quite satisfied with this:

Unset BACKSPACE as cks (custom keyboard shortcut); build an UDC (user defined command) with the following code; set BACKSPACE as hotkey (CKS) for it.

Code: Select all

#523; $item = "<curpath>"; if (exists("$item") == "0") { end 1; } elseif {  } while (FolderSize($item, '<d>', 0) <= '1' && FolderSize($item, '<f>', 0) <= '1' && listfolder($item, "*", 32) <= '1') { #523; $item = "<curpath>"; } focus;

Also considering use of "focus" so I can fix the often occurrence of random focus on tree (previously reported).

EDIT: using exists() for a short way to deal with special folders on "drives" list mode.

What if I wanted to use the "double click on empty space" to perform all this?

I'll play with CEA_ListRightClickOnWhite=6 and see what happens, although I find backspacing faster than dbl-clicking...

Kool, eh...?

How are you guys using the tweak PFADefaultOpenFolders

It only works with \> for me. I am unable to add any specific folder or with wildcards. Are you outsourcing the work to a script

[nerdweed]

Cough cough, any pointers please

Didn't answered because I use it full fledged, not much time for testing as of now - sorry!

[nerdweed]

Did you find a nice way to make use of it. I am still thinking how I can optimally use it.

[nerdweed]

PFADefaultOpenFolders has issues with opening folders that start with Dot (eg. .Folder, .Dir)

[admin]

Cannot confirm. What issues?

[nerdweed]

It doesn't navigate to such folders. If it is a known extension (known by windows or has a PFA assigned to it) like .jpg - it will open the default application. If it is an unknown extension like .folder, it won't do anything.

Similarly, if a folder is named like Folder.jpg it will again treat it as a file where Folder.Folder works fine.

They are all folder names, even when they look like file names

Folder.Folder -> Navigates fine
Folder.Jpg -> Treated as a file and the default application for jpg is opened
.Jpg -> Treated as a file and the default application for jpg is opened
.Folder -> It didn't do anything earlier (but now it navigates properly to the folder. I had flipped the tweak and that probably fixed it)

[admin]

No such issues here. Please give more information. E.g. the exact PFA definitions and their sequence.

[nerdweed]

There isn't any PFA for folders, everything is for file so don't know if this is useful. PFADefaultOpenFolders is set to 1.

Making a wild guess, is it do with the fact I mention the extensions directly rather than as *.ext


Edit: PFA list removed

[admin]

Aah! I thought in the opposite direction. OK, issue confirmed.

[nerdweed]

Wow that was quick, I was still editing the post because those 500 formats supported by XNview was causing a huge horizontal scroll bar. I will remove the PFA list.

[admin]

In the meantime I already fixed it.
