Hi!
Is there a way to sort the FileView Plugin files so that the most recently opened files appear before the others?
The current SortType=Date and SortDateType=Accessed don't seem to be working properly for some reason...
It is currently March 29th, 2024, 3:14 pm

Add to the parent measure the following options:Krainz wrote:Is there a way to sort the FileView Plugin files so that the most recently opened files appear before the others?

SortType=Date

Doesn't seem to be working 100%.
When does the info refresh or update?
See the following gifv:

Dragon Age II should move up, shouldn't it?

Can't tell anything from the picture... please post your code so we can duplicate the issue.Krainz wrote:Doesn't seem to be working 100%.

If I'm sorting by most recently accessed, then Dragon Age should move up in the next time I open the launcher, because I just accessed it. It never moves.eclectic-tech wrote:Can't tell anything from the picture...

eclectic-tech thought you'll post the whole code, not just the parent FileView plugin measure...

That's 5600 lines of code, are you sure of that?
Either way, you can test it yourself with any FileView Plugin skin using those settings: if you open file #3, it won't move up to #1 in the next measure refresh/update.

You're right. I don't have an answer yet, but will try to figure out what's happening.Krainz wrote:if you open file #3, it won't move up to #1 in the next measure refresh/update.

If I can store variables to an ini file the moment the file is accessed, then that may be done manually if there's the possibility of setting each item's index position to a variable, I think.balala wrote:You're right. I don't have an answer yet, but will try to figure out what's happening.

I'm not sure I understood what would you like to store as a variable, when the file is accessed.Krainz wrote:If I can store variables to an ini file the moment the file is accessed, then that may be done manually if there's the possibility of setting each item's index position to a variable, I think.
