Plugin Program - open containing folder in custom file explorer

[kubalav]

I don't use Windows Explorer. I would like to open containing folder in Total Commander. Plugin Everything works like a charm.

Can you implement this feature?

[taooceros]

Which plugin are you using? Everything or the Explorer plugin? Or you mean the Program plugin?

[kubalav]

I mean Program plugin. Everything plugin works with folders (single click), but not with Open parent folder (right click on item). Program plugin doesn't work to open containing folder (right click on item).

[taooceros]

Got it, and I will try to implement that soon. Thank you for the suggestion.

Hi @kubalav could you please test this build to see if it is as intended: https://ci.appveyor.com/api/buildjobs/2dcxc0jwdsg7x2ta/artifacts/Output%2FPackages%2FFlow-Launcher-v1.3.1.zip

It needs .Net Core 3.1 installed, let me know if you dont have it

[kubalav]

I entered path to the Total Commander executable and it is works. It opens new instance of Total Commander. Can you adjust it to open in existing instance?

[taooceros]

Check out here http://www.ghisler.ch/wiki/index.php/Command_line_parameters. Take a try on adding /O to the path? If that doesn't work, I will create another textbox to allow adding customized arguments.

[kubalav]

It unable to start with "C:\Program Files\Total Commander\TOTALCMD64.EXE" /O

[taooceros]

OK, I will add another textbox to do the job. Thank you for testing!

[taooceros]

@kubalav take a try on this one. https://ci.appveyor.com/api/buildjobs/dr2p3y5na9mubina/artifacts/Output%2FPackages%2FFlow-Launcher-v1.3.1.zip. I don't have an explorer that is useful with arguments, so I am not sure whether this works. But I have tested it with explorer and it seems works.

[kubalav]

Wow! It's working. Thank you!

Can you make it for Everything plugin too?

[taooceros]

Sure, I will do that tomorrow.

[taooceros]

Just to make sure, are you using the everything plugin, which is built in on wox, or the explorer plugin, which is built-in on Flow?

[kubalav]

From Wox.

[taooceros]

ok

[taooceros]

Sorry for being troublesome....., would you please tell me which version of everything plugin is you using so that I can fork the right repository, since everything plugin is not built in with the main repository of Flow?

[kubalav]

I use this version: https://github.com/Flow-Launcher/Flow.Launcher.Plugin.Everything/releases v1.1.0

[taooceros]

Flow.Launcher.Plugin.Everything.zip @kubalav Take a try.

[kubalav]

It's working partially. Opening file parent folder works. Folders opens in Explorer.exe. (Single click to result folder) I tried it with %f parameter and %s also.

[taooceros]

Everything plugin works with folders (single click), but not with Open parent folder (right click on item).

Oh from the quote I think the everything plugin already work for single click, so I only change the part for the parent folder. I will implement that, too.

[taooceros]

Flow.Launcher.Plugin.Everything.zip @kubalav Take a try.

[kubalav]

@taooceros Working as expected!

[kubalav]

Everything plugin have problem opening folder containing space. It opens path without space. E.g.: "C:\Users\Vlado\AppData\Roaming\7+ Taskbar Tweaker\" it opens "C:\Users\Vlado\AppData\Roaming\"

[taooceros]

I think it may due to that I didn't add another "" for the path in the location, I will fix that, tomorrow. Thank you for pointing out the issue.

[taooceros]

Flow.Launcher.Plugin.Everything.zip I have added the fix, but don't have time to tested it. You can take a try on it.

[kubalav]

It is fixed now. Thanks a lot.

[taooceros]

Good to hear!
