Original Subject was: Load file list
Hello
I receive (from one program) list of files - and must rename it.
I want to load this list in TC - and want to see this files in one panel.
Can I do it - if files in different folders?
Thank`s

This is the function I dream of!
Just imagine:
find files -> load from list -> feed to listbox
then you can do everything you want,
how marvelous!
However, it is only a DREAM at present ....

I also suggets the following feature for virtual panels plugins - ability to get in TC list of REAL files, referenced by such plugin.

I am not sure but I think about this....
I hope you have
one top level "project folder"?
* go to this folder
* press Ctrl+B for Branch View
* Load selection from file (your 'list of files')

Yes, it is known aproach, but it doesn't work ( or extremely inconvenient) in many cases.
* Very ofthen "top folder" contains huge number of files (hundreds thousand files) and Ctrl+B takes enormous time.
* It requires manually editing source filelist for every "top folder"
* It is impossible when required files reside on different disks.

asking the same feature!
... and sunddenly found the answer!
- search
- Ctrl-C (or Feed to listbox and save selection to file, or copy list of file with Mark --> Copy Names with path...)
- create file c:\searchresult.txt (or wherever you like)
- Search in: @c:\searchresult.txt
- Feed to listbox
WOW!
