I used to be able to right click and on that menu would be the ability to select Opus By Lister.
How can I get that back?
I have a MacroExpress Program that lets me create Macro's. Surprise right? Any way is there a way to execute Opus and a certain Lister? If I was in the address bar it would Launch with a comand "opus.exe"
Thanks
Bob
What are you right-clicking?
I'm not aware of an "Open By Lister" command. Are you sure that's the name of it?
Are you thinking of "Open in Directory Opus" when right-clicking folders?
I'm not sure what you're asking. Can you give more details? What to you want to happen, in which situations, when in which program? What do you man by 'launch with a command "opus.exe"'?
I have a short cut on my desk top -> C:\UTY\Software\Opus\dopus.exe /autolister (Which Seems to open last Lister OK)
Is the anything I can add to the end to open a "Lister". I tried the "Lister"-> "Email-Folder" with no luck.
-> C:\UTY\Software\Opus\dopus.exe /Email-Folder (I would like to open a Lister called "Email-Folder"
Go t:@upDate\DownLoad\ VIEW=Details
Set SHOWFILTERFILENAME *.zip

[quote="amerifax"]n another problem I'm having: How would I sort my Field "Modified"(I want to show only "Zip " files *.zip and sort by modified newest on top?
Go t:@upDate\DownLoad\ VIEW=Details
Set SHOWFILTERFILENAME *.zip[/quote]
Just add Set sortby=modified sortreverse=on

Thanks again for the help. Opus is my day. Luck for me the day you turned to computers. Or maybe you where born with one in your lap.

I'm still not sure what you are trying to accomplish here. Is it simply to have a shortcut that invokes Opus displaying a folder named Email-Folder?
If that's it, modify the shortcut, or create new one, such that the command in the shortcut is C:\UTY\Software\Opus\dopus.exe Email-Folder.
Depending on various things, you might have to include the path with Email-Folder so the command might be something like C:\UTY\Software\Opus\dopus.exe C:\wherever\Email-Folder.
I'm trying to execute, start, Opus and use the lister called Email-Folder
C:\UTY\Software\Opus\dopus.exe C:\wherever\Email-Folder
If you want to open an existing layout, you can use Prefs LAYOUT "Email-Folder" LAYOUTCLOSELISTERS=yes.

That code appears like it would be used while in the Opus environment. I'm trying to open opus and a specific Lister.

It´s still quite unclear what you mean. Since you talked about a "lister called Email-Folder" i thought, you maybe talked about some
layout. If you want a lister to open with that path "C:\UTY\Software\Opus\dopus.exe C:\wherever\Email-Folder", you can manually set
your paths you want to open, then save it using -> options -> lister layouts -> save this lister under the name "Email-Folder". Then you
can use the command i mentioned to open that exact layout with the mail folder.
You can use dopusrt.exe /cmd ... to execute Opus commands from outside of Opus. For example:
"C:\Program Files\GPSoftware\Directory Opus\dopusrt.exe" /cmd Prefs LAYOUT="Email-folder"
It's still not clear to me what is meant by "the lister called Email-Folder".
Lister is like having a photo view of how "Opus" looks when your in "Opus". It you give this picture or view or image a lister name any time you go into "Opus", bu selecting this lister you will get exactly how it looked. If you created the lister by going into Settings/Lister Layout you will find the past Listers that you saved at the bottom of the flyout.
To save a Lister go the following:
Settings\Lister Layout\Save this Lister\Email-Folder. From know on I will be able to duplicate that image anytime I want. Now when I'm in Excel , Word or what ever I will be able to have a shortcut on this DeskTop by clicking it I will be in Opus. Under normal conditions I will open to the last appearance that was showing on Opus. But that's going to come up a little short for me. I want to be in Opus but wanting Opus to look different. I want it to be open looking like the lister Email-Folder. I would think a shortcut as following would do that:
c:\uty\opus Email-Folder. C:\uty\opus by it's self will execute, load, Opus with the last appearance of opus. But I would think the Lister Email-Folder could be loaded with a shortcut giving the exact appearance I want. I know that by going to Settings\Lister Layouts I could do this. But I want it to be more friendly to users with less experience.
Bob
Go to Preferences / Listers / Layouts and drag the layout you want to your desktop, it will make a shortcut for you automatically.
Took 14 Post and 4 days to get to the miracle but here I am. That is exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks every one for the help.
Very special thanks to John.
