I have created an internal association (verb=zip) that will compress files or folders.

If I choose couple of files and right-click->zip, the zipped file would be created. Same applied to couple of folders.

BUT, when I select a file and a folder together, then there is no zip in right-click.

How I can make TC to accept files and folders in Internal Association?
Thanks

Cannot confirm using TC 7.57a and TC 8.0 beta 24 32-bits. What version are you using?

Maybe you can simply create buttonbar button or usercommand to be placed into main menu? It will work with selection.

What is the file type ("Type name" in the Edit file type dialog) you use for the internal association?

What is your OS?

to MVV:
I have already created buttons, but I was wondering if I can do it without using mouse as I am using keyboard all the time!

to white:
I have several internal associations. fo each of them I have defined an action called "Zip" with this command:

c:\AutoIt\AutoIt3.exe "c:\AutoIt\Scripts\zip.au3" "%2"

this works if I have same file types selected in TC e.g. jpg files. But once I select different file types like jpg and txt of combination of file and folders, then Zip action wont appear in righ click menu anymore, and I have to use the button I have created for this purpose. Any solution is highly appreciated? thanks in advance.

BTW, my OS is win7.

How about this one:

Filter1=*.pdf
Filter1_open=""c:\PDF-XChange Viewer\PDFXCview\PDFXCview.exe" "%1""
Filter2=*.bmp *.jpg *.jpeg *.tiff *.tif *.gif *.png *.emf *.wmf *.cr2 *.svg *.jp2
Filter2_open=""c:\FastStone Image Viewer\FSViewer\FSViewer.exe" "%1""
Filter3=*.*
Filter3_Zip=c:\AutoIt\AutoIt3.exe "c:\AutoIt\Scripts\7-Zip\zip.au3" "%2"

this works individually for jpg or pdf files, but it does not work for both jpg and pdf files together! If I moved Filter3 to the top, then it works, but then it does not work for individual jpg or pdf files! is there any way to fix it just by using internal association?

thanks

so, literally, there is no way to that in TC using interanl association! is this right?

Yes, theese are type-specific ones.

But I recommend you to create user-command and assign a hotkey for it, as white suggested. So it will work w/o mouse, and you may add a hint for toolbar button with assigned hotkey. Also you can add user-command to main menu, and call it via hotkeys like Alt+underlined characters.
