Script / Re: Need more documentation when creating/testing user defined commands

« on: June 26, 2018, 09:51:57 »

Ah — my bad, sorry — I missed "Custom Command".  Obviously the MultiScript Debugger will not help.

There is a list of Custom Commands with their purpose and parameters here:

Have you used the MultiScript debugger at  Menu -> Help -> MultiScript Debugger ?

And looked at the documentation at http://multicommander.com/docs/multiscript/ and subsections ?

Even better than ColorConsole is:

I tried Q-Dir for a while, but settled on MC as the superior commander

I do use their FontViewOK though.

There is no “automatic” or configuration setting, but you can add “/MINIMIZED” as a command line switch to your shortcut in the Startup folder.

Right click any column header in the explorer panel (eg: Name, Ext, Size, etc.) and select “Save current layout as default”.

Hi Mathias.

Do you plan to update the MC downloads page to list 8.1 (build 2452) as the current version?

Thanks for all the replies

I'll retest after the next beta release.  I can use these functions for lots of UDCs!

Sorry to seem stupid, Mathias, but with only 1 parameter (side) it works exactly as expected, but

...I would expect TabActiveTab( 1,2 ); to set the 3rd tab in the left panel as active.

does not set the 3rd tab in the left panel as active.  Nothing happens at all 

216

Beta Releases / Re: Multi Commander v7.9 BETA

« on: March 25, 2018, 13:19:24 »

Thanks Mathias.  Tried that; no result at all

My confusion is caused by these 2 lines in your post of March 21st:

<int> TabActiveTab( <int/string> side);  // return tab in panel that is active
 TabActiveTab( <int/string> side, int tabIdx );  // set tab in panel side as active

The 1st shows TabActiveTab( ) taking 1 argument and returning an <int>: this works as expected.

The 2nd shows TabActiveTab( ) taking 2 arguments and returning <what?>: this seems to do nothing.
For example, I woud expect TabActiveTab( 1,2 ); to set the 3rd tab in the left panel as active.

What am I missing?

I cannot get

TabActiveTab( <int/string> side, int tabIdx );

to do anything at all 

Could you give an example, please?

<1/2> TabActivePanelSide(); // 1 left / top , 2, right / bottom
TabActivePanelSide(<int/string> side );
<int> TabActiveTab( <int/string> side);  // return tab in panel that is active
 TabActiveTab( <int/string> side, int tabIdx );  // set tab in panel side as active
<int> TabCount(  <int/string> side ); // return the number of tab a panel side have
<string> TabGetPath(  <int/string> side, int tabIdx); // return the path of a tab IF that tab has a explorer panel, else empty string is returned
TabLoadTabSession( <string> nameOrID ); // load tab session

Hi Mathias: some issues...

I am unclear as to what "TabActivePanelSide()" returns/does.

"TabActiveTab" is listed twice (once with 1 argument and once with 2).

Many thanks.  I'll start testing.

Looking promising, Mathias.

But could you list the arguments and return values for the new MultiScript function to work with tabs, please?

Can you give a bit more detail about "sorting the entire list within the folder"?

Do you mean folders aren't sorted by date, as well as files?

Support and Feedback / Determine which Panel has focus

« on: March 08, 2018, 13:07:22 »

Is there a way to determine which of the two explorer panels has focus (ie., LEFT or RIGHT)?

I have reviewed the documentation and searched the Script sub-forum but found nothing.

TIA

Sorry - I misunderstood your question.

I don't use the F3 Search, but I don't believe you can save the results column layout as a "default".

Support and Feedback / Re: Set Default Search Columns

« on: March 01, 2018, 20:12:42 »

Set up all your columns the way you want them.
Right-click any column header.
Click "Save current layout as default".

Voila!
