options to copy multi column results names

Hello , options to copy multi column results instead of one by one

I want to copy file names folder names with filesize or folder size with Modified dates at the same time for

maybe have a check box to choose from from the right click or just click on what we need with more options to choose from beside the column ?

Not sure what you want and what the output should look like, but ..

Easiest would be to
- add/remove columns fronm the resultlist and when the results show the desired columns:
- Menu => File => Export and choose the CSV format.
- Open the CSV file and
- copy its content


Alternatively, add the following to your search query:

Code: Select all

add-column:A  A:=$name:"  "$path:"  "$size:"  "FORMAT_DATETIME($dm:,"YYYY-MM-DD")

- Select all wanted files/folders
- Right-click in Column A
- Select Copy Column A from the context menu
- Content of Column A is on the clipboard (for the selected files)

Hi,

Set up the columns as required.

Create bookmarks, e.g.
