Total Commander

Copying the content of custom columns to clipboard (cm_CopyFpFileDetailsToClip) reloads the panel. In my case getting the content from the files takes a very long time and reloading is actually not necessary. Any idea how to avoid the redundant reload?

This is done because
- only the currently visible lines are available
- the plugin data may have changed
- very long plugin values may have been truncated

What I do is calling very long calculations on the files using the scriptWDX plugin by activating this custom column. Then I want to copy the column contents to clipboard. Maybe there is a trick of how to avoid the calculations a second time when copying.
Otherwise I can call the script on the files without usage of TC. OK I may think about this option.

Try this:
1. Reduce the size of TC until only one line is visible
2. Switch to your special view
3. Select all with Ctrl+A
4. Use cm_CopyFpFileDetailsToClip

Thanks, Christian, for the workaround. This helps indeed as only one calculation per file is performed.
