ExifTool Custom Columns

Here's a new version with the following changes:

  • Display of UTF8 encoded stuff is even better, but still not perfect.
  • Now cache files will only be generated or renewed for files that are visible in the tab. Files that are hidden by a filter or are siblings of files in collections are skipped.
  • The set extToIgnore can be filled with extensions the script should always ignore.
  • Cache will be rebuilt, if the item's modify date is more current than the cache file's (was: folder).
  • Removed the onAnyChange flag
  • Removed the maxCacheAge option
  • New syntax for column definition

The column definition syntax has changed. If you want to copy your modifications to the new script,

replace

new DefineColumn

with

exifColumns.push_back(DefineColumn

and

'),

with

'));

and add a ); to the last entry.

Confusing? You'll know it when you see it :wink:

Any testing and feedback is still welcome :slight_smile:

And how do I get the utf8 decoding/encoding for the columns right?
