Catalouge category addition

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Anders Petersson's Freeware Forum : One Thread

It is very time consuming when adding categories to files and folders. One has to import each file/folder separately instead of the whole disk. I would love to have a palette or extra window with the categories. It should then be possible to drag the file or folder onto a category or drag a category onto a file or folder in order to associate these. I have only used the program for an hour but I am pretty sure this is not possible at present. Would it be something to consider?

Otherwise a good program with no crashes so far.

Hi Kristian.

I agree that that changing status or category for a catalog is not optimal. But there is a context menu shortcut in all the catalog file lists (in the 'Open...' dialog for example). Simply right click any catalog file and select 'Quick change category'. But a drag and drop solution would obviously be much better - you're right - but it will take me some time to add it. A couple of months, or something like that.

I don't konw what you mean by "It is very time consuming when adding categories to files and folders. One has to import each file/folder separately instead of the whole disk." But perhaps I've answered your question.

Thanks for the suggersion.
