Now I can mark the files I want to have copied (kind of "manual synchronization" by file dates) to the destination folder.
But... the copy-process does not allow me to keep the folder structure, the resulting files are all in the one destination folder
Yes, I know there is the directory synchronization tool, but there are two caveats:
1. You cannot just quickly select some new files from the source, and copy them to destination no matter whether they exist or not.
2. The destination folder must be accessible at synchronization time.
Here's my problem:
I want to transport my development folder from one computer to another using a USB stick, but only the relevant files (i.e. recently changed and newly added sources files, libraries and compiled DLLs).
In this main folder are hundreds of folders for each project with even more temporary (and HUGE!) compiler files (obj, pch, ...). Now when I'm at the root of the development folder, I press CTRL+B, sort by date and show only *.cpp, *.h, *.lib, *.dll files (CTRL+F12). Now I quickly mark all files that are newer than a certain date and copy them (F5), but I have no option to maintain the original folder structure in the flat view.
So I get exactly the files copied that I want, but I will have to move them manually to the destination folders on the other computer, or even worse, if I have files with the same names but different content in the folders, they will overwrite themselves already during the copy process to the USB stick.
Another solution for this task would be to have a date/time filter in the general copy dialog (e.g. with inside "Options" button), in addition to the already existing file-mask.
Any idea if there's a way to do it with the current TC?
Or any chance to have one of these features added in the future, i.e. "keep file structure" in flat view, or date/time filter in copy dialog?
