Select
The Select internal command is used to:
Select all, deselect all, and invert the current selection of all files and folders
Select or deselect files by filename with a wildcard pattern
Select all files in the source that are selected in the destination, and vice versa
Select all files with extensions matching those already selected
Convert checkmarks into selection and vice versa
Hide files based on whether they are selected or not
Select a range of files by index
Select files by date and size
Command Arguments:
| Argument | Type | Possible values | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
(no arguments) | - | - | |
ADVANCED | /O | (no value) | Displays the Select dialog in advanced mode. Example: |
<filter name> | Displays the Select dialog in advanced mode, with the specified saved filter already loaded. Example: | ||
ALL | /S | (no value) | Select all files and folders in the current source file display. Example: |
ALLDIRS | /S | (no value) | Select all folders in the current source file display. Example: |
ALLFILES | /S | (no value) | Select all files in the current source file display. Example: |
DATE | /K | <date> | Select files whose last modification timestamps match the specified date. You can specify:
You can also use > (greater than) before the date to match all files newer than the specified date, or < (less than) before the date to match all files older than the specified date. You can also specify an age rather than a date to test for. For example, to select all files older than 5 days, you might specify Example: |
<date1>..<date2> | Select files whose last modification timestamps falls between the two specified dates. Both dates are supplied in the format described above. Example: | ||
oldest | Select the oldest item in the current source file display. You can combine this with the PATTERN argument to select the oldest of a specific type of file. Example: | ||
newest | Select the newest item in the current file display. Example: | ||
created | Normally this command considers the last modification timestamp of each file, however by specifying this keyword you can make it look at the creation time instead. Example: | ||
both | Considers both created and last modification timestamps. Example: | ||
next | Modifies the behavior of the newest and oldest arguments. Normally, Example: | ||
DESELECT | /S | (no value) | Instead of selecting files, the command will deselect them. This is used in conjunction with the PATTERN, ALLDIRS and ALLFILES arguments. Example: |
DESELECTNOMATCH | /S | (no value) | Files that don't match the pattern will be deselected (normally files that don't match are left alone). This also works when using the FILTER argument to select files with a predefined filter. Example: |
DESELECTOTHERTYPE | /S | (no value) | When used with the TYPE argument to restrict a selection to either files or folders (or with the ALLFILES and ALLDIRS arguments), DESELECTOTHERTYPE causes all items of the other type to be deselected Example: |
DESTTOSOURCE | /O | (no value) | Selects all files and folders in the source file display that are currently selected in the destination. The comparison is only done on the filename - the files are not actually compared. Example: |
in | Selects all files and folders in the source file display that exist in the destination. Example: | ||
noext | Does not consider file extensions when comparing selected files in the source and destination. For example, if IMGP1234.JPG was selected in the destination, and IMGP1234.WAV existed in the source, it would be selected. Example: | ||
notin | Selects all files and folders in the source file display that don't exist in the destination. Example: | ||
DUPES | /S | (no value) | Displays the Duplicates Selection dialog, which lets you select files after performing a duplicates search. Example: |
EXACT | /S | (no value) | Indicates that the PATTERN argument is a literal file name and not a wildcard or regular expression. This allows you to specify an exact filename without having to escape wildcard characters like '(' and ')'. Example: |
FILTER | /S | (no value) | Performs file selection using a pre-defined filter. The name of the filter must be given as the value of the PATTERN argument. Filters must have previously been configured through the Filters page in Preferences. You can use this with the TYPE argument to restrict the filter to either files or folders only. Example: You can also use this from a script, by using the Command.SetFilter method to assign a filter to a Command object. Running the command |
FILTERDEF | /K/R | <filter> | Lets you define a filter in text format to select matching files. Similar to the FILTER argument, however the filter does not need to be predefined. This is a /R argument and so everything after the FILTERDEF keyword will be treated as the argument's value. Example: |
FILTERFLAGS | /K | select | Select files that match the filter (this argument is used in conjunction with the FILTER argument). This is the default behaviour. Example: |
deselect | Deselect files that match the filter. Example: | ||
hide | Hide files that match the filter. Example: | ||
hidenomatch | Hide files that don't match the filter. Example: | ||
FIRST | /S | (no value) | Select the first item in the source file display, deselect all other items. Example: |
FROMCHECKS | /S | (no value) | Convert the state of checked items to selections (checked items will be selected, non-checked items will be deselected). This only applies in checkbox mode. Example: |
FROMSCRIPT | /O | (no value) | This command should be used when running a Select command from a script (e.g. via Command.RunCommand). It tells the command to select the files in the Command object itself. Example: |
unhide | Any items that are currently hidden will be unhidden before being selected. Example: | ||
GROUPNAME | /O | (no value) | When the file display is grouped, this lets you select files based on the group they are in. When GROUPNAME is used without an associated value, the value of the PATTERN argument is used as the name of the group to match. The example below selects all files in groups beginning with X. Example: |
<group name> | When a value is provided for the GROUPNAME argument it specifies the name (or wildcard pattern) of the file group. The selection operation will be confined to files and folders in matching groups. You can also use this in conjunction with the SETFOCUS argument to give input focus to a group header. Example: | ||
HIDESEL | /O | (no value) | Hide all selected items (both files and folders). This is used either with the PATTERN argument to hide all files that match the pattern, or with the NOPATTERN argument to hide all currently selected files. Example: |
dirs | Hide all selected directories. Example: | ||
files | Hide all selected files. Example: | ||
HIDEUNAFFECTED | /S | (no value) | When used with the synchronize tool, this hides any items from the list that are not marked to be synchronized (either copied or deleted). Example: |
HIDEUNSEL | /O | (no value) | Hide all unselected items (both files and folders). This is used either with the PATTERN argument (files that don't match the pattern will be hidden), or with the NOPATTERN argument (all currently unselected files will be hidden). Example: |
dirs | Hide all unselected directories. Example: | ||
files | Hide all unselected files. Example: | ||
IGNORECHECKBOXMODE | /S | (no value) | The command will act as if the file display is not in checkbox mode, even if it is. Normally, the Select command will check and uncheck files while in checkbox mode, but this argument allows you to modify the normal file selection and leave the checkboxes alone. In particular, it allows scripts to set the normal selection and focus item to a particular file without modifying the checkbox states. Example: |
INVERT | /S | (no value) | Inverts the selection state of all items in the source file display. Example: |
LAST | /S | (no value) | Selects the last item in the source file display, deselect all other items. Example: |
MAKEVISIBLE | /O | (no value) | Ensures that the first selected item is visible in the file display. The list will be scrolled if needed. Similar to the SETFOCUS argument except the viewer pane will not update to show the new selection. Example: |
immediate | Prevents the short delay that normally occurs before the selected file is scrolled into view. Example: | ||
NEXT | /O | (no value) | Selects the next item in the file display. The first item immediately following the first currently selected item will be selected, and all other items deselected. Example: |
mark | Toggles the selection state of the currently focused item, and moves the input focus to the next item in the list. This is the equivalent of pressing the Insert key in the file display. Example: | ||
nodeselect | Prevents any currently selected items from being deselected. Example: | ||
row | In the icon display modes (e.g. Thumbnails mode) this will move the selection down one row (vertically instead of horizontally). Ignored in Details and Power modes. Example: | ||
NONE | /S | (no value) | Deselects all items in the source file display. Example: |
NOPATTERN | /S | (no value) | The Select command normally requires a value for the PATTERN argument to operate, but in some cases you may need it to operate without supplying a pattern. For example, the HIDESEL and HIDEUNSEL arguments can be used to hide all currently selected or unselected items without applying a new wildcard selection first. Example: |
PATTERN | <pattern> | Specify a wildcard pattern. All items matching the supplied pattern will be selected (or deselected, hidden, etc. based on the other arguments for this command). The pattern can be specified using standard pattern matching syntax, or regular expressions if the REGEXP argument is supplied. The PATTERN argument is also used to provide the name of a pre-defined filter in conjunction with the FILTER argument. This is the default argument for the Select command and so the PATTERN keyword does not need to be supplied. Example: | |
PREV | /O | (no value) | Select the previous item in the file display. The first item immediately preceding the last currently selected item will be selected, and all other items deselected. Example: |
mark | Toggles the selection state of the currently focused item, and moves the input focus to the previous item in the list. Similar to pressing the Insert key, except the focus moves to the previous rather than the next item. Example: | ||
nodeselect | Prevents any currently selected items from being deselected. Example: | ||
row | In the icon display modes (e.g. Thumbnails mode) this will move the selection up one row (vertically instead of horizontally). Ignored in Details and Power modes. Example: | ||
RANGE | /K | <range> | Selects a range of items based on their index (their position in the list). This command is equivalent to the range selection mode of the find-as-you-type field. The <range> value consists of one or more comma-separated ranges; each range can be a single number, or two numbers separated by a hyphen to indicate all numbers within that range. Example: |
REGEXP | /S | (no value) | Use regular expression mode instead of standard pattern matching. Example: |
RESELECT | /S | (no value) | Reselects all files and folders that were used (and deselected) by the previously executed command. Example: |
SETFOCUS | /S | (no value) | Ensures that the first selected item is visible in the file display. The list will be scrolled if needed. Additionally, if the viewer pane is open the first selected file will be automatically viewed if possible. Example: |
SHOWFOCUS | /S | (no value) | If necessary, scrolls the file display to make the currently focused item visible. The selection will not be modified. Example: |
SHOWHIDDEN | /O | (no value) | Reveal any files or folders that have previously been hidden by commands using the HIDESEL or HIDEUNSEL arguments. The other way to reveal files hidden this way is by re-reading the folder (e.g. press F5). Example: |
dirs | Reveals all hidden directories. Example: | ||
files | Reveals all hidden files. Example: | ||
SHOWUNAFFECTED | /S | (no value) | When used with the synchronize tool, this reveals any items that have previously been hidden because they were not marked to be synchronized (either copied or deleted). Example: |
SIMILAR | /S | (no value) | Selects all files with the same file extensions as the currently selected files. For example, if a single .jpg and a single .gif file are currently selected, this command would select all .jpg and .gif files in the source file display. Example: |
trueext | Causes the command to ignore multi-part extensions. E.g. file.part1.rar, file.part2.rar and file.part3.rar would all be considered to be .rar files rather than having different extensions. Example: | ||
SIMILARBASE | /S | (no value) | Selects all files with the same base-names as the currently selected files. For example, if cat.jpg and dog.gif are currently selected, this command would select all cat.* and dog.* files in the source file display. Example: |
SIMPLE | /S | (no value) | Displays the Select dialog in simple mode. Example: |
SIZE | /K | <size> | Select files whose size matches the specified size. By default the size specified is treated as bytes, but you can use the following suffixes to use different units:
Example: |
<size1>..<size2> | Select files whose size falls between the two specified sizes. Both sizes are supplied in the format described above. Example: | ||
largest | Select the largest item in the current source file display. You can combine this with the PATTERN argument to select the largest of a specific type of file. Example: | ||
smallest | Select the smallest item in the current file display. Example: | ||
SOURCETODEST | /O | (no value) | Selects all files and folders in the destination file display that are currently selected in the source. The comparison is only done on the filename - the files are not actually compared. Example: |
in | Selects all files and folders in the destination file display that exist in the source. Example: | ||
noext | Does not consider file extensions when comparing selected files in the source and destination. For example, if IMGP1234.JPG was selected in the source, and IMGP1234.WAV existed in the destination, it would be selected. Example: | ||
notin | Selects all files and folders in the destination file display that don't exist in the source. Example: | ||
THIS | /S | (no value) | Selects the current focus entry. It is possible for the entry with input focus to not be selected (for example, if you move the focus highlight with Control + Cursor-Down) and this command will select whichever entry is currently focused. Example: |
TOCHECKS | /S | (no value) | Convert item selection states to check states. Selected items will be checked, and unselected items will be unchecked. If the file display is not currently in checkbox mode it will be turned on automatically. Example: |
TYPE | /K | files | Force the selection to only affect files - even if folders match the pattern they will be unaffected. You can add the DESELECTOTHERTYPE argument to deselect all items of the "other" type. Example: |
dirs | Force the selection to only affect folders. Example: |
