Yeah, I agree with that. My MRUs for things like VF, Batch/RegExp Rename and the likes are now filled with scripts stuff, and I don't think I like that. And I think it make sense that (most of the times) when using a script to do something you don't really want it in your MRU; the only exception probably being the History of course.TheQwerty wrote:To be honest, I feel patterns used in the scripting command should never be added to the MRU list.
Yep, I agree too.TheQwerty wrote:To be honest, I feel patterns used in the scripting command should never be added to the MRU list.

Since the ability to name filters in v.8.90.0014, here is a slightly modified script (from jacky) to filter on selected files only.jacky wrote:Right, well here's a quick update then:Code: Select all
"&Filter Current Selection" end 0==getinfo("CountSelected"), "No selection !", 1; replace $sel, report('"{Name}"|', 1), "[", "[[]"; replace $sel, $sel, "#", "[#]"; filter $sel; status "Selection filtered";
Code: Select all
"&Filter Current Selection"
end 0==getinfo("CountSelected"), "No selection !", 1;
replace $sel, report('"{Name}"|', 1), "[", "[[]";
replace $sel, $sel, "#", "[#]";
$sel=""""."Selected".""""." ".$sel;
filter $sel;
status "Selection filtered";Even being optional, is this really needed? Given that status bar is blue already on VF and in most all cases, VF also shows in tab...or am I missing something obvious as to need?admin wrote:Here's a screenshot. Any comments?
There is quite some demand for this. And tabs as well as statusbar (since recently) can be hidden, so with 2 clicks you can create a layout where nothing tells you that the list is filtered.j_c_hallgren wrote:Even being optional, is this really needed?

But isn't your additional line status-info, and should be part of the status line?admin wrote:There is quite some demand for this.

Rather than trying to invent a way to display a VF status, would it not be easier to make users aware that, if they want to see it, they need to enable either tabs or status bar (or both)? I'm quite puzzled by people who wish to hide ways of displaying information yet ask to have a new way to do so.admin wrote:There is quite some demand for this.

I think the idea is good.admin wrote:Yes. This orange bar is something that you see without looking for it. You will even subconsciously know that you are looking at a filtered list. I think this is optimal GUI design.
Hmm, not sure. Some users may be colour-blind, so they would not see "in your face" orange bar as obviously as others would. Also, having greyscaled your screenshot, I note that colours of the background caption text do not contrast very well, thus spoiling readability.admin wrote:Yes.

1.) will this bar be permanent visible (if optional enabled) or only if i use an filter?admin wrote:I plan to add a (optional) very clear mark that a list is filtered and does not show the whole contents of the browsed folder.
Here's a screenshot. Any comments?
