Toolbar for folder content detection

Here is a toolbar which can be useful when using content type detection.

The first button is the usual content type field displaying and letting you choose the content type.

The second button is a drop down button, which has the prefer folder formats in the drop down (they need to be edited manually as you have your own favorites). This button when clicked (i mean the button itself, not the drop down) refreshes the current view to the content type default (if the content detection is enabled of course. If the folder format is locked, use shift when clicking the button to unlock before refreshing).

The last button is the format lock button.

The drop-down has to be manually edited as the default drop-down button to show the favorites folder formats also displays the automatic ones (which is redundant with the first field.

I hope some of you can find this useful!

Rather than manually list the folder formats, Opus can generate the list for you.

You can use the "Folder Format Menu" or "Folder Format List" pre-made items from the Customize dialog or make your own item which runs "Properties FORMATLIST".

yep, right, that's what I did in the beginning... but I changed it manually so I don't have the "Content Type Formats" listed also, it's kind of redundant with the field at its left, and I wanted to have this Content Type to be displayed, and only if I need I can switch to another view of the folder.

It's not a big deal and I know DOpus already has predefined functions with that, but i posted this premade toolbar for the persons who doesn't want redundant stuff really close to each other (never mind, I'm kinda maniac sometimes and DOpus is great for the offered possibilities) :slight_smile:
