Folders to be implied item filter

Post by CoffeeKid »

v13.90.0001

I like having the mixed custom columns including files and folders. I'm trying to implement it but at the same time I wouldn't want xyp to examine files that do not pertain to the mixed column. For that reason I have added a filter to that column to include all relevant file extensions that make up the various elements in the mixed columns (jpg;jpeg;png;gif;psd;psb;bmp;tif;tiff;exe;dll;wav;wma;wmv;ac3;aac;ape;ogg;flac;mp3;m4a;divx;flv;mkv;mov;avi;mp4;mpeg;mpg;mwv).

The problem is when the item type on the mixed column is set to file and folders and you also have a filter, the folders are ignored.

When item type is set to files and folders can folders be implied as an item filter?

Here is my setup for my custom columns

What if you don't set any item filter in the mixed column?

Code: Select all

UserOutOfBrainException: item types set to *files* while looking at *folder* junctions must raise a "problem".
