Hi,
I was wondering if it's possible to provide an option to get DO to queue all copies and moves into one queue rather than the current options? Obviously any moving of files between directories on the same partition would be fine to not be part of the queue since that would only take a second, but certainly any other moves or copies would be great to have available as one queue.
Also Is it possible to add the Total Size of All files to the copy/move window?
You can make the Copy command always queue by adding an explicit queue name. You'll probably also want to specify "quiet" so you don't get a message every time something is queued.
Thanks Leo. I'm glad that its possible. Could you give me more direction as to how to add the explicit queue name to all copies? I can't find a place in the options to put this.

I'm certainly not Leo, but no doubt, yo will have to go to Settings -> Customize and edit thye command behind whatever you use to copy.
I'll just give one example. You could
[ul]
Go into Settings -> Customize
Left click the Copy Files menu in one of the default toolbars
Right click the resulting Copy Files menu item
Left click Edit from the resulting menu
[/ul]
In the bottom part of the Command Editor window you will see some code including a Copy command. Add the parameters to that Copy command.
I suppose this will work. I haven't actually done this to this specific command.
If you also want to apply the Queue to Drag & Drop Actions go to "Settings=>Filetypes=>All Files and Folders" and change the codes like in the screenshots. You'll probably also have some custom Copy/Move entries at the "Context Menu" Tab.
Thanks a lot! Worked perfectly Is there any way to say that if i'm moving files within the same drive to not queue though? If it copies within the same drive i want it to queue. Its just moving would be basically instant within the same drive.
I don't think it's possible for the Leftclick Drag & Drop without using some tricky VB-Script or such.
You could simply add a new entry to the Rightclick-Menu:
