Hiding defined file types in Thumbnail view?

[jesped]

Is it possible to hide certain file types in the Thumbnail view?

Like, for example, hiding hundreds of .srt files in a video folder.

jesped,
Every time when switching to Thumbnail view or just once?

Every time, but even just once would be better than nothing.

You can either add *.srt to the ignore list (Configuration -> Options -> Ignore list) then .srt file will never be shown.

Or you can use this button to hide the files:

Code: Select all

TOTALCMD#BAR#DATA
cd *|"*.srt"

wcmicons.dll,24
Hide *.ret files

To make the button:
1. Mark the text in the box here above (click SELECT ALL).
2. Copy it to the ClipBoard (press Ctrl+C).
3. Right click on TC's buttonbar and choose "Paste".

or you can automate the process with a View Mode and an Auto Switch Mode - like this:

You will then have to put this in your usercmd.ini file (located in the same folder as your wincmd.ini file):

Code: Select all

[em_hide_srt]
cmd=cd *|"*.srt"

With the Auto Switch Mode approach, TC wil automatically hide .srt files if any is detected in the folder.

You can even make it so it will automatically change to Thumbnail view if a .srt file is detected by changeing the" Auto-run commands" to:

Code: Select all

*cm_SrcThumbs,em_hide_srt|cm_SrcAllFiles,cm_SrcLong
