Full screen Lister directly
Please add a new command or option or modifier to cm_List for open Lister in Full Screen directly, without need for any keyboard or mouse action.
Especially useful for images and video

The best solution in my eyes would be to extend the cm_List... commands by a parameter for the lister mode, like in the wincmd.ini section [ListerModes] (see help), with a '>' in front of it to distinguish it from a filename, or '<' as identifier for fullscreen display.
cm_List >4i
cm_List <Imagine.wlx
If only numeric parameters should be realizable, one could code the modes as follows:
1..8: View mode as shown in the Lister menu "Options".
4: Multimedia, automatic detection
10: like 4i - multimedia, use internal viewer (no plugins)
100..999: Plugin number as in wincmd.ini section [ListerPlugins] + 100
+1000 for full screen

Re: Full screen Lister directly
I didn't understand. More details, please.
I would prefer to list the plugins or their indexes in wincmd.ini (for example, AutoFullScreenPlugs=3|7|12|19|35|39|54) that need to be taken into account for the full screen. The only problem is that not everyone allows you to use Alt + Enter (without taking into account those that use this hotkey in their own way).
Overquoting is evil! π
Re: Full screen Lister directly
Sorry, should be:
100..999: Plugin number as in wincmd.ini section [ListerPlugins] + 100
100..999: Plugin number as in wincmd.ini section [ListerPlugins] + 100
Re: Full screen Lister directly
What if the order of the plugins is changed? - this should be independent of plugin's position in ini file and works even while plugins order change.Fla$her wrote: β2022-05-13, 21:40 UTCI didn't understand. More details, please.

So, rather configure same way as a plugin prefered for file type - just by plugin name - e.g. IMAGINE.WLX
Re: Full screen Lister directly
Changing the name of the section didn't make it any clearer. Where do these 100..999 come from? And what is +100?
Automatically change the number in this key if we are talking about TC dialog. It's simple.
One name doesn't do much good. In any case, an enumeration is needed. And it's possible without extensions.
Without overquoting, please.

Re: Full screen Lister directly
Have you EVER looked into wincmd.ini section [ListerPlugins] ?
The lister plugins are there numbered starting from 0, so you must add 100 to use it with an extended cm_List... command.

Re: Full screen Lister directly
Strange question. Sure. Hundreds of times.
Why add exactly 100, can you explain?

Re: Full screen Lister directly
I'm considering to support the same parameters as for standalone Lister /S=L:parameters
Of course I would add a parameter there to also support full screen mode.

Re: Full screen Lister directly
In this case, it will not work for the usual F3 and a group of plugins. What is the point of creating a separate button for each plugin, looking for it on the panel, or a hotkey, remembering it?ghisler(Author) wrote: β2022-05-15, 06:31 UTCI'm considering to support the same parameters as for standalone Lister /S=L:parameters

Please add a key with listing plugins for full screen mode (like AutoFullScreenPlugs=Lister,slister,vlister,etc). It would be very useful, because Alt+Enter does not work with plugins unlike /S=L:F.

Re: Full screen Lister directly
Sorry, some plugins like Imagine handle Alt+Enter by themselves, it wouldn't be good to interfere.

You didn't understand. It's not about using Alt+Enter. /S=L:F applies to all viewing plugins without exception. I suggest that the user chooses which plugins he needs to run in this mode by F3 (the name of the key start with Auto). If he has configured Imagine to run in full screen, then there is no point in specifying it in this list. Isn't it?

Re: Full screen Lister directly
Sorry, I really didn't understand what you want, and I still don't.
Where would you want to tell Lister that it should show Imagine in full screen? What does it have to do with the /S=L:F parameter?
