Custom Colums: Show part of filename in column only

[Energy]

Hi,

Question:

Can I make custom colums that shows just a part of the filename?

Example:

Code: Select all

Name:						                Streetname		Zipcode
New York - Streetname 1 - 6604 LC.jpg		Streetname 1		6604 LC
New York - Streetname 2 - 6604 LC.jpg		Streetname 2		6604 LC
New York - Streetname 3 - 6604 LC.jpg		Streetname 3		6604 LC

Is there a plug-in that does this?

Maybe this plugin will help:

Thanks for your reply, but I don't think this is the thing I am looking for...

What also can help is the following:

When you go to a JPG file, right click it and select properties,then go to the summary tab, you can fill in a few things like title, subject, author, keywords... Can these fields be displayed in colums???

Why not? Works as you wanted.

1.)

\plugins\wdx\Expander2\Expander2.lng

[Main]
; Divider for parts, you may specify any number of dividers, divide them with |
; Enclose parameter to double quotes if first or last character is space
Divider=" - "


2.)
Custom Columns

[=expander2.Part1.FromName]
[=expander2.Part2.FromName]
[=expander2.Part3.FromName]

You will get three columns Part1 Part2 Part3

Part1 | Part2 | Part3
New York |Streetname 1 | 6604 LC


Change the custom columns captions as you like:

Part1
Street
Zip


Done.
(in your case, just use Part2 and Part3 only)

[Main]
Divider= -
[DEU]
Part1=Teil 1
Part2=Teil 2
Part3=Teil 3
Part4=Teil 4
Part5=Teil 5
Part6=Teil 6
Part7=Teil 7
Part8=Teil 8
Part9=Teil 9
Part10=Teil 10

... Can these fields be displayed in colums???

Yes. This is a very powerful feature. Take a look
- in Help-file at "User defined columns" and
- for "Content plugins" http://ghisler.com/plugins.htm and
- for "WDX-Plugins" (some of them manage all the other WDX-plugins.

It will take time to read and understand, but it will be worth.

Tja, Stefan - du warst schneller, aber mein's ist schöner

As of Total Commander 8.01, this plugin behaves erratically. With what version you tried and this worked?
