Would like wallpaper-sized images to stand out...

Is it possible to create a color-filter, visual filter, or something similar, to make images of a certain dimension (like 1280 pix X 800 pix) easily identifiable?

i second this question(or better to say request). i'd use it to color-filter too large images.

XYplorer doesn't yet* support:
XYplorer roadmap wrote:- Shell Columns (extended file properties as optional columns in the list)
AFAICT that limits you currently to running a script that uses XYplorer's property()-command. Unfortunately, I'm not a scripter but hopefully others will be able to help you further.
Once such a script has parsed the folder(s), it could apply a (temporary) tag or label so that you can easily find and sort on it.

Well, it's not impossible to add that.
Something like "prop:dimensions:" or "prop:#26:" is already supported in Find Files, so why not support it in Color Filters. I'll check that. The only problem I see off-hand is speed. Retrieving the shell properties takes time, sometimes much time.

OK, I added it. BUT, just as I thought, it's VERY slow!
So, if you really need you can use it (next BETA), but it will not be much fun.

Done.
This is a real killer feature. It opens a vast space of possibilities. So thanks for asking that question!
Here is the particular color filter you were asking for:
To gain speed I would limit to file types the
have dimensions. e.g.:
Code: Select all
prop:dimensions:1280 x 800 //|filter:*.jpg;*.png

can you please make example as to how to state filter marking images larger than 1600x1200(included)?
as for a slow speed, too bad there is no way to cache color filters just like thumbnails.

Just curious: is it because of the relatively high byte offset of this meta-information in the file header?

VERY COOL!

Thanks for adding this!
I did as you suggested and specified the filter for dim: + Image files only. The performance hit does not seem too bad

I think that's because it's disk intensive, as well as Windows showing id3 tags for each mp3 in a folder.

I think it depends on the file where/how the info is stored. Depending on the file type codecs are needed to access the info. Probably the whole file has to be read from disk, then analyzed, etc.

O M G!

Didn't expect that.
It's time for a new effort to establish a world-wide modern standard for file meta data (yep, I know there's XMP) - just dreaming, erm kidding.
Thanks for clarification.

At the moment difficult, if not impossible. But I might add comparison operators later, then you can do something like "Width >= 1600 AND Height >= 1200".

Hi, I hope it's okay to "resurrect" this old thread...
Is this still the correct syntax to filter-out all but the images indicated?
Code: Select all
"1920x1080 Images only" prop:#image.dimensions: 1920 x 1080
Note: This syntax is working as expected with Instant Color Filters, but not with Power or Visual Filters (everything is filtered-out, nothing is found).
Using XY 20.40.0016

Visual Filters don't support prop: selector, as an alternative quicksearch does though.
