Folder View Settings addition

[Quaraxkad]

Could you add the option #333 View | Sort By | Sort Folders Apart to the settings that are saved with a Folder View? I have only one folder where I want that option enabled, but it's not remembered as part of that folders Folder View Settings, even though other Sort order options are remembered.

Remind me after the 64-bit edition is completed.

OK!

Do you mean only 1 folder where you want Sort Apart "enabled" or really you meant disabled?

In the meantime while you are waiting, if you wanted, you could achieve a similar result by utilizing a CEA browse script.

I want Sort Folder Apart enabled by default, but there's one column layout for a particular folder where I want it disabled.

Yeah that's what I thought you meant, so if you set a script something like this:

Configuration | General | Custom Event Actions >> Changing Locations >> After browsing a folder

if (<curpath> LikeI "c:\whatever\path\you\want") { sortbylist formatlist(<allitems |>, s), "|"; }

would be one way of achieving what you want for the time being. I was also assuming you wanted ascending alphabetical sort, but it it is adjustable.

How would I apply that to a specific paper folder, and not an actual drive path?

EDIT: I also need it sorted by a custom column, not by the filename.

Replace the c:\whatever\path\you\want with what you see in the breadcrumb/address/titlebar when you are in that particular paperfolder, eg paper:whatever

[Quaraxkad]

Doh! That's what I tried but it didn't work, but I forgot to change the action to Run Script instead of None! So it does work, but sorts by filename instead of my custom scripted column.

Oh, you never mentioned that requirement, you could try this instead then,

Code: Select all

if (<curpath> LikeI "paper:whatever") { settingp "SortFoldersApart", 0; } else { settingp "SortFoldersApart", 1; }

You reply too fast! I edited my previous post about a minute after initial posting.

Code: Select all

if (<curpath> LikeI "paper:whatever") { settingp "SortFoldersApart", 0; } else { settingp "SortFoldersApart", 1; }

It works, thanks!
