Show all files of subfolders as thumbnails + group by folder

Post by *temporalnaut »

Hi, I have a folder that contains subfolders with product images. I need to view all the files of these subfolders at once, as thumbnails, grouped by folder, and be able to rename the images. In windows explorer, I use a thing that when I'm in a folder that contains subfolders, I type a dot in the search field, all the files in the subfolders are displayed, and then I choose to display the files as thumbnails, grouped by folder. Can TC do something like that? I would stay with win explorer, but it combines some results as if it were the same subfolder based on a hyphen in the name. well thank you

TC can show all files in all subfolders. That's called branch view - see menu Commands > Branch View (Ctrl+B). But TC can't group by folder.

You will not be able to have nice grouping with separator line as some image software can do..

You can have an approaching solution if you create a custom view with name, ext, size,.... ADD A PATH COLUMN [tc.path].
You can sort on the path column to have all the images from the same folder near each others. You can also add secondary sort key using [ctrl]+click on the next column.
