Code: Select all

v13.80.0107 - 2014-03-07 12:27
    + Special Properties: Added property "Length" (#audio.length). It returns
      the length in a more exact format than the Shell column of the same name:
        nn:ss.fff
          n = minutes
          s = seconds
          f = milliseconds
Please make it hh:nn:ss:fff.

Longer files get hh: automatically.

Last time I checked, they don't - anyway, that setup (machine+XY) has now an updated XY. Back to the boring report task, then... *sigh*
Thanks!

Tomorrow you probably get the next beta. Damn, I more or less had to rewrite the whole XY kernel. If I made no mistakes you will note almost no difference to before, LOL. All for one little command: "New Column". :biggrin:

return should end the script.

This should result in 'a' not 'b':

Code: Select all

EDIT: I know we can make the date columns show age but I'd like to see both. Could the Ages for each date please be added as special properties?

Thanks, Don!

Soft Columns... I'm honestly not sure I understand the point. It's cool that they can be quickly configured via scripting, but overall it feels like this adds to the confusion between Extra Columns, Custom Columns 1-5, and Custom Columns 6+. :veryconfused:

Hopefully you've still got some plans! ;)

No, that was my last plan. I'm done. XYplorer is finished. :ninja:

I added sth to the change log:

Code: Select all

      The major differences to the hard Custom Columns:
      - Soft Columns are stored with the tab, with the Home, with the FVS. They 
        are local and self-sufficient, no external dependencies.
      - Soft Columns are unlimited in number.
      - Soft Columns can easily and totally be controlled via scripting command 
        SetColumns.
Tip: If you are confused by this simply don't right-click the column headers. :)

Well, I don't know, why I do seem always to be around for beat club milestones, but....

At least, I can cease F5-ing now.
