If your shelldetails.ini is messed up, just delete it and restart TC.
With the re-created file, replace these lines

Code: Select all

[{64440490-4C8B-11D1-8B70-080036B11A03}3]
Caption=Length
UseDefault=1
State=131810

with

Thank you nn1k3! It now works.

I don't know how or why I messed up the ShellDetails.ini file... , but I'm very pleased to see that it's fine.

How can I use ShellDetails to filter files by rating? Assuming I only want to see files with a 5-star rating, "Rating = 5" does not work, at least.

[HolgerK]

Create a custom column view with [=shelldetails.Rating] and take a look at the rating values.
Rating may be different than number of stars.
e.g.:

unrated	<empty>
1 star	1
2 stars	25
3 stars	50
4 stars	75
5 stars	99

Ah! Thank you.

[Brumm]

That does not work. The custom column gives the correct number, but "99 or 75" still shows no files...

[HolgerK]

Locate the shelldetails.ini file and open it with text editor.
One section of the ini file should look similar to this:

[{64440492-4C8B-11D1-8B70-080036B11A03}9]
Caption=Rating
UseDefault=1
State=131617

change it to:

[{64440492-4C8B-11D1-8B70-080036B11A03}9]
Caption=Rating
UseDefault=0
Cast=2
State=131617

For explanation see shelldetails plugin folder readme.htm:4.2 Field Settings

And from me too

It seems plugin doesn't show the values for field preview in "Choose plugin property" dialog (MRT->Plugin).

I can confirm the problem

I'm currently switching my development system. It should be ready at the end of the week. I hope can investigate the issue in more detail then.

Any news on investigation?

Sorry I'm quite busy at the moment. I'll report here when there is something to report.

iS it possible for shelldetails to show ***** (5 stars) instead of 100 for ratings?

No, but you can map the values to 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 by dividing with 24
See in shelldetails folder:

Operator=47 47 The only allowed settings here is 47 which stands for /. That means division is currently the only supported operation.
