Got an idea for enhancing PureBasic? New command(s) you'd like to see?

Advanced ExplorerListGadget()

Post by va!n »

i really like the explorerlistgadget() but there is a little point i would like to be have changed or just extended :)

Atm, the filenames with its extension will displayed in the column like using the constant #PB_Explorer_Name !!! Atm we have this two flags:

Code: Select all

#PB_Explorer_Name      : displays the name of the file/directory
#PB_Explorer_Type       : displays a string describing the filetype
I would like to have flags like:

Code: Select all

  #PB_Explorer_Name       : displays the name of the file/directory (only filename WITHOUT extension *.xxx)
  #PB_Explorer_NameEx    :  displays the name of the file/directory (WITH its extension = as it is atm)
  #PB_Explorer_Type       : display only the extension (mostly 3 chars)
  #PB_Explorer_Description  : displays a string describing the filetype
  #PB_Explorer_Attributes : displays the attributes of the file/directory
So people can use onle column for displaying only the real filename without its extension and displaying in another column only its extension and maybe in another column the file description!

What do you think about this? Still waiting for replies to discuss this feature ;)



EDITED:
Another point i would really like... #PB_Explorer_Attributes display only the actual attribulte left aligned... why not display it in a way like

ASDH --D- A--- !?? So people have a better and faster overview of each file attribute ;)
