[Solved] Change "Image Files" global power filter so that it will also allow directories

I want to change the "Image Files" global power filter so that it will also show me any directories, not just image files.

I have tried to change it from

Code: Select all

"Image|Image Files" {:Image}
to

Code: Select all

"Image|Image Files" {:Image} || attr: d
"Image|Image Files" {:Image} | attr: d

and the same without spaces:
"Image|Image Files" {:Image}||attr:d
"Image|Image Files" {:Image}|attr:d
but this seems doesn't work. There probably another way to do it.

How to make this work?

Precede the pattern with \| to let pass all folders:

Code: Select all

"Image|Image Files" \|{:Image}
* * *

FYI, a general solution for all Visual Filters is to tick Configuration | Find and Filter | Filters & Type Ahead Find | Visual Filters and Live Filter Box | Apply to files only.
