Request - Filter when dragging files
« on: September 18, 2005, 04:52 PM »
Hi

Like to make a feature request. When I drag folderx into DDR, I would like to have a filter to run on the files to be added in to list. Difficult to add? Thanks.

When I use "Recurse Files - All Levels", it adds all the files into the file list. I like to have a way to filter that.

Say I drop a top level folder, and I only want to get *.zip, but that folder has lots of other types of files as well.

i usually use a search program to find all the *.zip files for example in some directory tree and drag results from their, but
i see your point and sure, i will add this feature to next release, seems easy enough.
