Sort files by time _created_ instead of time _modified_

[berni2k]

by default hitting ctrl-F5 will sort my files by the date they where modified

is it possible to change that to the date the files where created (the time they got allocated to the file system)

thx a lot

I think I'm just blind and cant find it; the best file manager on this planet surly can do that

Hi berni

Menu "Show > Custom columns"
> Configure
> New > Add
> [+] on the right > tc > creationdate

[berni2k]

great, this works perfectly and gives new options

i didnt see it because i deactivate "show tabstop header" by default

thank you so much

bye

Is there any way to add this to the full view header?

[berni2k]

interesting question indeed, so that you dont lose the ctrl-F2 shorcut option

[HolgerK]

Create a custom view like this:

[CustomFields]
Widths1=137,31,-67,69,80
Headers1=Size\nCreationdate\nAttr
Contents1= [=tc.size] \n[=tc.creationdate]\n[=tc.attributestr]
Options1=1363|0
AutoLoad=0
Titles=Full (creation date)

(numeric values of widths are my personal preferences, you need to adapt this to yours)

And assign the shortcut <Ctrl+F2> to cm_SrcCustomView1

[Shortcuts]
C+F2=cm_SrcCustomView1

The normal full view is still available via (context) menu, or can be mapped to a different shortcut (cm_SrcLong).

Hi Bob !

• Would need another design to be simple… NO COMMENT…

That looks good, my friend! Someone ought to do a plugin that will handle that.

I have a directory where I would like to show both creation date and the (default) modified date of the files. I managed to enter the creation date using the custom columns menu but this wipes out the modified date and the latter does not appear in the "tc" list of options on the right hand side of the entry box. Does anyone have any idea how to do this or just add a column to the default file list? Thanks, Hank.

You can use [=tc.writedate] for the modified date.

That works fine. May thanks. Just as a matter of interest: Is there a way for putting in custom columns which will cover all directories and/or all disks?
