Any chance in future versions that the IGNORECHECKBOXMODE option will make it into commands other than SELECT? Specifically, I had in mind SETATTR - in the same way you can view a selected file in checkbox mode, it'd be nice to be able to change the attributes and description for the same file without disturbing checkbox selections.
You can do it via scripting.
This will run SetAttr
on the files that are selected, ignoring the checkboxes:
function OnClick(clickData)
{
var cmd = clickData.func.command;
cmd.deselect = false;
cmd.ClearFiles();
for (var eItems = new Enumerator(clickData.func.sourcetab.all); !eItems.atEnd(); eItems.moveNext())
{
var item = eItems.item();
if (item.selected)
{
cmd.AddFile(item);
}
}
if (cmd.filecount > 0)
{
cmd.RunCommand('SetAttr');
}
}
