Negated expressions in auto view mode change

Post by *Lefteous »

Currently when I want to define that a certasin view mode should be activated when a certain condition matches but want to make a exception to the rule (e.g. don't switch when it's a network drive) I have to go the other way by defining all the other path types - which is quite cumbersome - as matching.

So it would be fine to have a way to negate each available condition.

I didn't include negation for the primary rules because they would be too broad. Just use L (drive letter) instead of D (directory) in this specific case. You can exclude files by file type, but you can't exclude directories at this time - that would indeed be nice to have. Currently you would have to create a rule for the excluded dirs above the rule in which you want to exclude them.
