Post New Requests Here / Re: IDEA: Change folder icon colour when folder empty

« Last post by skwire on June 22, 2012, 09:43 AM »

Hi, pavanusq, and welcome to the DonationCoder site.  

i downloaded MTIcon, but how to assign Folder size or how the Folder changes Blue or any colour?

-pavanusq (June 21, 2012, 03:29 AM)

I never added the folder size stuff to MT Icon; it only sets the icon if a folder is empty.

i am looking for a program which detects empty folder and change it's colour or give some identification, i don't want delete empty Folders.

-pavanusq (June 21, 2012, 03:29 AM)

The current version of MT Icon does not delete empty folders.

My favourite renamer is ReNamer found here: http://www.den4b.com...&product=renamer

1) Download and run.
2) Add the files/folders you want.
3) Add a RegEx rule like this:



4) You should see the preview change to this:



If you can't tell from the screenshot what the RegEx pattern is, here you go: (_.*)_.*

If this is something you plan to do on a regular basis, I could write you a bit of AutoHotkey code that would accomplish what you want.

Hi, Rills, and welcome to DonationCoder.   

I am look for some software that does exactly what you are describing here.  Is this software available for use?  I am afraid have have never been on this forum before so I don't really know what it is about.

-Rills (June 20, 2012, 10:38 AM)

There's a link to the initial software I wrote in one of the previous posts.  You can download the file here:  http://skwire.dcmemb...ps/snacks/MTIcon.zip

One can see in the enlarged image that the filename is truncated but the path is not.

-AEN007 (June 18, 2012, 12:05 PM)

Are you positive you're using the latest Trout?  Here's what I see when setting up a long path test folder and your filename:


Note that backslashes show up as Yen symbols on my setup.
 

I make suggestions that would/could improve Trout.
You seem to be more interested in being the boss ...

-AEN007 (June 18, 2012, 12:05 PM)

It's not about me being the boss.  It's about me striking a balance between adding code that is useful for a majority of people and code that is not.  It's also about a balance between the time and energy I would have to invest into writing that code.  Please realise that I have a regular job and family and that I do this in my spare time at a cost of nothing to you.

No matter ... at one time Trout was the first/only audio option
I was able to make work on my PII XP MM laptop ...
but now (as I have previously posted elsewhere) I have multiple MM options ...

-AEN007 (June 18, 2012, 12:05 PM)

If one of those other options suits your needs better than what Trout can currently do, that's great to hear.   No pun intended.

often does anyone load more than 999 items into Trout? I never do ...

-AEN007 (June 18, 2012, 10:19 AM)

You're not everyone.  The status bar isn't changing.

... well zooming with an image viewer/editor makes it clearer ...

-AEN007 (June 18, 2012, 10:19 AM)

Give me some credit here.  I did try to enlarge it but, as jgpaiva shows, it doesn't help much.

Which Service Pack of XP are you using on that computer?  My development computer is running XPSP3 and the path shortening works fine.

Which OS are you using?  Also, that screenshot has been reduced in size making it very hard to see the path at the bottom.

Skwire Empire / Re: format Trout StatusBar?

« Last post by skwire on June 17, 2012, 07:21 PM »

I still see only a partial filename

-AEN007 (June 17, 2012, 06:59 PM)

I'm using the PathCompactPathEx API method for this so you should always see the full filename (unless the filename is over 64 characters).

Why is is the PL# section so/too wide?

-AEN007 (June 17, 2012, 06:59 PM)

It's that wide so it can handle two six-digit numbers and the slash e.g. 888888/888888

« Last post by skwire on June 17, 2012, 06:35 PM »

Okay, just tried it, the way I have it above.  File Punter created the shortcuts.  But put all the shortcuts into one subdirectory:

c:\shortcuts\

-nkormanik (June 17, 2012, 06:12 PM)

Ah, crap, my fault.  Make your destinations for each of those two rules like this:

c:\Shortcuts\??1

After doing that, try it again and let me know.  Apologies.

Finished Programs / Re: DONE: Shortcuts Creator

« Last post by skwire on June 17, 2012, 05:45 PM »

I've set up File Punter as follows:

C:\Images     .*_(.*)_     C:\Shortcuts     No     Yes
C:\Images     .*_(.*)\.     C:\Shortcuts     No     Yes

-nkormanik (June 17, 2012, 05:27 PM)

The way you have it should work perfectly.

Skwire Empire / Re: bass plugins

« Last post by skwire on June 17, 2012, 02:09 PM »

It seems the plugins bass_aac, bass_alac & bass_ape included with Trout are out of date ...
likewise for the main bass.dll 2.471 vs 2.490

-AEN007 (June 17, 2012, 01:52 PM)

Yep, they are.  *shrug*  I don't follow the BASS library versions very closely.

(My) Trout will play .wv files, because TagS includes the basswv.dll ...

-AEN007 (June 17, 2012, 01:52 PM)

Trout includes the basswv.dll as well so I don't know what you're trying to say here.

Finished Programs / Re: DONE: Shortcuts Creator

Using File Punter..., 180 lines of commands, one for each of the variables.

-nkormanik (June 16, 2012, 11:55 PM)

No need for 180 rules; you can do this in two rules using Regular Expressions.  Follow the same instructions as in my previous post but change the patterns to the following:

First rule pattern:       .*_(.*)_
Second rule pattern:   .*_(.*)\.

Those two rules should accomplish what you want.  =]

Seems, in answer to my original request, that using plain wild cards alone will do the trick using your program.  User just needs to create a text file containing the snippets one per line.  And import that text file into File Punter.  Press start.

-nkormanik (June 16, 2012, 05:05 PM)

Say, if user imports a text file of 200 lines, so that 200 check boxes would need to be manually clicked on.

-nkormanik (June 16, 2012, 05:15 PM)

Hmmm...are you creating 200 separate rules for your use?  If so, maybe we can help out with a RegEx that will do what you need?  Did the RegEx I provided earlier work for you?

There are check/uncheck buttons in the toolbar that should do what you want.
