Feature request: tick box file lists on/off

[kazzybash]

Hi void,

would it be a meaningful feature to have the ability to switch on/off file lists? This could be all file lists at once, or an option per file list used (I think this would be harder to implement).

Context: I make heavy use of file lists, I use them as a catalog for offline volumes. But sometimes when using in Everything in performing tasks I do not want the catalogue around.

Thanks for reading, kind regards Kazzy

I will consider tick boxes for quick toggling of indexed file lists.
Thank you for the suggestion.

For now, please consider creating a filter:

• In Everything, from the Search menu, click Add to filters....
• Change the Name to: No File Lists
• Change the Search to: !filelistfilename:.
• Click OK.

Filters can be activated from the Search menu, Filter bar (View -> Filters), right clicking the status bar, filter macro or filter keyboard shortcut.

thanks David! This is a very good work around indeed. I did not know of this option to add filters.

Kind regards, Kazzy

hello,

regarding the post above:

In Everything, from the Search menu, click Add to filters....
Change the Name to: No File Lists
Change the Search to: !filelistfilename:.
Click OK.


What would be the filter for 'filelists only' ?

Kind regards and thanks in advance for your help, Kazzy

To search for files/folders from file lists only:

• In Everything, from the Search menu, click Add to filters....
• Change the Name to: File Lists Only
• Change the Search to: filelistfilename:.
• Click OK.
