Multiple file patterns
« on: October 28, 2014, 09:22 AM »
My settings:
Node Type: Folder
Root Folder to display: ..\MyHelp
Accept File patterns: *.htm*;*.chm

Nothing shows up. If I remove the chm file type, however, it does work as expected. Launchbar help says you could combine multiple patterns with a semi-colon, but no matter what variations I tried (with spaces, with ending ;) it doesn't work here.

try using the pipe character "|" to separate them.
