![]() ![]() I also love the fact I can add buttons to commonly used applications and write scripts using ActiveX and apply them to your buttons which I find SUPER helpful and much more powerful than XYplorer. This shows the Lister name (%L) and the file path (%P) after it so I am able to quickly tell if I am on a general Lister or one of my saved Listers. One of the configurations I made to show the Lister name in the title bar is set Settings/Preferences/Display/Options/Lister title bar:/Custom title: = %L – %P. Again, this goes back to configuring DOpus to do what you need it to, but you need to play with DOpus a bit to know what it is capable of. One of my issues with DOpus is that it does not tell you the Lister you are using by default. Some of my saved Listers includes one that remembers my latest project directory, another for burning image CDs (where one tab is the source folder of images and the other tab is the DVD drive to burn images to), and then another Lister of common template files I need to access. The thing to remember is to save your views for different tasks and then create a custom menu button that lists all of your saved Listers (since I have not found a view that gives you quick access to switching between your saved Listers). Think of it as saving Windows Explorer views. One of the features of DOpus that I like is the ‘Lister’ or saved tabsets/views. ![]() ‘Lister’ would not be what I call this thing I has taken me a few weeks to integrate DOpus into my daily work-flow and I kept switching between DOpus and XYplorer before I really begin to get comfortable with it. It has tons of options and just when you think DOpus can’t do what you need, you find out about the configuration setting that solves the problem. The pain with learning DOpus is configuring it. I purchased the latest v12 DOpus release and have been happy as a bug in a rug. I also tried XYplorer and loved the tagging features of it, but DOpus drew me back somehow. I tried the DOpus demo version for a bit and wasn’t initially drawn to it because I lacked the time to fully configure it to meet my needs. ![]() I watched one of their videos on YouTube describing the features and I thought ‘ehhh, maybe I could use this’. I stumbled across Directory Opus the other week when looking for a better replacement for Windows Explorer. ![]()
