what is " One-click-copy " function ?

Post by chrisge »

I saw in the latest history two strange functions:

v5.40.0044 - 10.12.06 08:09

= NEW OFFICIAL RELEASE. Main changes since last release:
+++ Visual Filters now work in Find mode, too!
+++ New usability jewels "Select by Selected Type(s)" and "Filter by
Selected Extension(s)"!
+++ Drop messages from Outlook and Outlook Express and save them to
files with template-configured names!
+++ One-click-copy distributed items onto the clipboard! You won't
find this killer feature nowhere else.
+++ One-click-store search results for later review/reuse!

What do exactely this 2 functions ?

Can you explain them ?

thanks !

1. One-click-copy distributed items onto the clipboard!

Beta v5.40.0023, 20-nov-2006 here

A catalog feature. Select a category and use ctrl+c and you will have all those category items in your clipboard.

2. +++ One-click-store search results for later review/reuse!

beta v5.40.0040, 05-dec-2006 here

Also a catalog thing. Right click on catalog and go to Import as new category here and choose current list. All the listed items will be put into a new category "list items". Which means you can now save your searches to catalog. If you select any items in the list only those items will be in the list items category (v0041).

Code: Select all

v5.40.0040 - 05.12.06 10:00 
    + Catalog's Context Menu|Import as New Category Here: added command 
      "Current List". Will create a new catalog category auto-named to 
      "Current List", and add to it all items currently listed in the list 
      view (regardless of the selectedness). Note that the items are added 
      in the order in which there are currently shown. 
      This feature allows you, for example, to easily store search 
      results for later reuse. It is another step toward the long 
      planned full-blown Drop Stack functionality (where you will be 
      able to actually re-display those category items in the list).

+++ Catalog: now you can copy all items contained in a Catalog 
      category! Simply select a category and press Ctrl+C. Or choose the 
      new "Copy All Items in Category" command in the category's context 
      menu. Note that, of course, only files and folders are copyable, 
      but not drives, name searches, or web-URLs.
        This little feature is a revolutionary new way to quickly and 
      repeatedly copy distributed items onto the clipboard by a single 
      click. You just have to collect them one single time under a 
      catalog category, and they are ready for repeated joint copying.
        Note: of course, if you happen to have same-named items (from 
      different locations, naturally) on the clipboard you'll run into 
      a collision-situation when pasting them.
