When I have the checkbox active, when selecting a file by clicking on it, I cannot perform basic actions, such as copying or deleting. Only if I select his check box.
Is there any way to fix this? I like using the check box, but I don't want to have to use it every time I need to perform some action with the files.
There is nothing to fix, checkbox mode does exactly what it is supposed to do. You can still copy & move unchecked files per drag & drop, but all other operations such as "Delete" key to delete files, etc "Ctrl C-Ctrl V" which expect a selection would use checked items obviously.
Note that checkbox mode predates the one in File Explorer and isn’t for the same thing.
File Explorer’s checkboxes just give you something you can click to toggle a file’s selection without deselecting other files or having to hold Ctrl.
In Opus, you can do that by clicking the file with the middle mouse button. No checkboxes required.
Checkbox mode in Opus lets you have two independent selections, where operations like Copy, Move and Delete work on the checked items, but the preview pane shows the last selected file. It lets you go through files and build up a selection to act on while still being able to view individual files when working out whether or not to select them.
woow, I really didn't know about this option with the middle mouse button! Amazing how every day, Dopus really blows my mind with something useful!!
Thank you very much, this is even better than I wanted! Hahahaha
Now, I don't know if I can ask this here or I need to open a new topic, but is it possible to add a group of tabs to the favorites bar? So that when you click on it, all the tabs open?
Yes, you can do that. Just place a menu in your Favs bar, containing several sub items like
Go TABGROUPLOAD=YourTabGroup
for every tab group you want.
You can also drag this to a toolbar/menu to get an automatic list of all tab groups, if you want all of them and not just a select few. (Both are useful, depending on what you want.)
Perfect! Thank you again guys!
