Is it possible to select folders in which a file was found?

Post by timmy2 »

I'm looking at a folder on my D: drive. Within that folder are subfolders, and within them are subfolders that contain files. I can use your Find function, search the top folder for a specific filename that occurs in many of the bottom subfolders, and this list of files will appear. At that point, is there any way I can have Salamader select all the subfolders that contained the found files?

It is not possible. It is possible to create simple plugin for such task (selection state can be altered using plugin).

Do you have instructions for creating such a plug-in?

The SDK is quite self-explaining. It just takes a lot of time to go through. And I shouldn't forget to tell that the names of objects, methods, properties and variables are in English, but the "documentation" is in Czech. Anyway, if you can speak C++, why bother with something else? ;)

If you will be interested, we can provide further instructions. Try to compile the DEMO plugin (part of Salamander SDK) and let us know.
