I routinely have to delete folders with multiple gigabytes of files and folders in them. To avoid sitting through all of the "are you sure" and "recycling this many files" dialogs, I created a user command with the following code:
Delete ALL NORECYCLE QUIET FORCE {allfile}
After using it successfully for a while, I decided to make it a button instead and deleted the custom user command. "Successfully" means that DOpus silently and invisibly deleted all of the files and folders in a given location.
I copy/pasted the exact same code into a button. Now, however, DOpus throws up a dialog with progress bar while the files are being deleted when I use the button.
Am I missing something?
Vista Business 64
DOpus 9.1.1.7.3307.x64
Command originally created in 9.1.1.6
If you just want to delete what's selected then you don't need the * or {allfile} at all. I got confused thinking it had been added to delete everything without having to do a select all. Hope that didn't cause too much hassle getting things back. Erk!
I guess there isn't a way to suppress the progress dialog though. It's odd that one wasn't shown for the user-command, actually.
ShadowProtect has me covered. It takes incremental backup images every few hours, so mounting the image and using DOpus to sync the backed-up folder and the actual folder was completely painless.
I'll remove the allfile tag. If I encounter any other difficulties, I'll post back. I can live with the progress dialog. It just surprised me because the user-command didn't show it.
I reported this long ago with version 9.x. User commands do not show the progress bar (copy, move, etc) button commands do. Both showed the progress bar in v8.
