Since dopus can show expanded folders, I think it would be cool if the internal commands support it:
Take the following example:
If I want to create an archive with the selected files inside the expanded folder, as of now, the archive will be created in the sourcetab path/folder. But I would rather to create it inside the expanded folder (subfolder).
Maybe the internal command could have an EXPANDED argument:
Copy ARCHIVE=.7z HERE=EXPANDED
Is it possible in the future?
You can pass the first selected file's path as the destination.
Interesting. How can I do this?
I figured it out. Well, actually ChatGPT did.
Copy ARCHIVE=.7z TO={filepath|..}
However, it doesn't work with the MOVE command, as for each selected file it asks the new directory name, instead of asking just once:
Copy MOVE TO={filepath|..} CREATEFOLDER QUEUE=none
The following code works but not as the original New Folder prompt that 1) blocks invalid characters and 2) has the modifier key features along the OK button
@set NewFolderName={dlgstring|Enter the name of the new folder:|My New Folder}
Copy MOVE TO={filepath|..} CREATEFOLDER="{$NewFolderName}" QUEUE=none
Support++ the suggestion of @opusentusiast.
Expanded folders look like open folders but do not function equivalently so a source of confusion.
Eactly my pain, too!
And I understand the problem behind when it comes to determine the target (folder) when doing some file operations, especially in dual lister mode.
As of now, I am using some scripts to the basic Create, Archive and Extract functions:
