The list of available items is very long now, is it possible to add some grouping like in the win7 properties dialog? (Description, Video, Audio, Media, Origin.....)
It's planned to add some kind of categorization in ShellDetails settings dialog. However this categorization won't be in the field selection in TC as there is no way to add a categorization here. Instead ShellDetails settings will offer to display to disable unneeded fields.
In Change attributes the plugin is not available. Is it possible to add this?
Yes it's planned.
Some fields are missing, for example the field Channels. After reading a bit through the topic I found the entry in propsys.dll and succesfully added it to the .ini.
How does the plugin gather the entries? Why is this entry missing
Is this field available in Explorer?
I'm using a standard method to get the available fields. This method is folder-specifc. Adding a folder as described in the documentation could add the field automatically while browsing.

Thanks for you awnsers.

Ah, ok, I see, the only subbranch in TC is mask offcourse.
Yes it's planned.
Great!

The correct awnser would be no, this field is available in the properties dialog -> details of the file, but is not available to select as a collums indeed.

I can't promise when all these things will find their way into the plugin. I guess improvements will be added incrementally.

What do you mean with 'mask'?

Ow, I expected a update tomorrow... :wink:

I will live another day without the features, but it's nice to see it's considered.

At first I thought some sublevels could be created. But this sublevels only contain a mask for the date fields.

I was trying to make "Duration" column, but it doesn't display correctly.
For example for video with length 00:11:44 I get number 7,049,816,666.
00:11:44 is 704 seconds which suggests that number presented is number of seconds multiplied by 10^7

Can this be corrected?

Also while posting, I'd vote for categorical listing of available fields because it's hard to browse the fields as is.

Thanks

readme.htm says:

";Displays the length of video and audio files as time value.
[{64440490-4C8B-11D1-8B70-080036B11A03}3]
UseDefault=0
Cast=5
Operator=47
Operand=10000000"

Try to read readme.htm and edit the ini.file

Unfortunately this is something the plugin can't do alone. TC currently only supports a flat, uncategorized list of fields.

Metadata does NOT appear

Post by *valuex »

I've used File Metadata (on codeplex) to edit *.pdf files' metadata, such as rating and tag.
These info appear normally in Windows Explorer and can be edited in Details tab, that appears when one right click the selected file and choose properties.

However, in TC, these info does NOT appear in the columns that I've enabled by ShellDetails.
Also, the metadata in Details tab can NOT be edited.

Please help to check this problem.
Thanks

It could be a 32 bit / 64 bit problem. Please check if you are using a correct pair of TC and shell extension versions.

I thought that the INI is dependent on the software installed at the PC, so every INI is different from the others???
