And that’s it! Once you OK the configuration dialog, the wave form image will show in your column. png which is template speak for "same base name, but PNG extension" Configuring a Custom Column as Image Column This time we add a Custom Column (there are 64 available), and configure it like this: If you are well-behaved and your wave form files always have the same base name as your corresponding wave files then there is something better: automatic assignment based on rules! No database involved, no disk space wasted. Okay, this was an arbitrary assignment and it is stored in a database. Do it again, but differently (automatic assignment) Move the mouse over it to get a zoomed view (need to tick "Image Columns" in Configuration | Information | File Info Tips & Hover Box | Show Hover Box | Select Context. Pasting the image file name into the Image Column cell Then we right-click the WAV file cell in the Waves column and select the Paste command: Now we select the PNG file and press Ctrl+Shift+P to copy the filename without path to clipboard Our new Image Column "Waves" is already visible but still empty, folder tree is hidden: Both files have the same base name, but obviously different extensions. Now here is our minimalistic example setup: one WAV file and one PNG file containing the corresponding wave form image. Configuring an Extra Column as Image Column For arbitrary assignment we take an Extra Column (there are 16 available) via View | Columns | Show Columns., open the Configuration Dialog via right-clicking the column header, call it "Waves" (or whatever you like) and set the column type to "Image": So, how do we get there, step by step (arbitrary assignment)?įirst, set the list to Details View and add an Image Column. But in XYplorer you can assign them to a sound file, and display them along with the sound file. Another software has to take care of that. Note that the wave form images are not created by XYplorer itself. This is a screenshot by a user showing a display of wave form images in an XYplorer Image Column: By the way, if you move your mouse over these images, you’ll optionally get an enlarged view, the so-called Hover Box A column could even create the image it’s about to show. Since columns can be scripted, the possibilities are endless. Typical use cases would be showing wave forms for sounds, or album covers for songs, or different states or angles of people or designs. based on the file name or other file properties).
These images can be arbitrarily assigned to a file (and recorded in a database), or based on rules (e.g. And not just one per file, but many: Up to 80 different pics per file, all in one list! The signature look of a details view in a file manager. So far a data record in a file listing consisted of an icon, maybe a thumbnail, and various bits of text.
