Ian I am in the Preferences/Files dialog tab and I cannot figure out
Ian how to disable just one file type. The dialog has a checkbox next
Ian to each type and at the bottom Add and Remove buttons. Does
Ian the Remove button apply to all checked rows or to rows picked with
Ian the normal selection mechanism?
Michael The Remove button applies to the currently _highlighted_ row.
Michael The Add button appends a new row at the bottom.
Michael You can have multiple rows per file type, so the checkbox
Michael enables/disables a line.
This is what I needed to know, thanks. It is very confusing, though.
There simply is no way a newbie would know what the checkboxes are for.
Ian If it is the checkboxes, do I really have to uncheck each one by
Ian one before I can disable this one type?
Michael I don't understand that question. If there's just one type, I
Michael fail to see why you would want to uncheck each one by one
Michael because that would refer to multiple rows. If you want to
Michael disable all filters, use the checkbox at the very top.
My situation was I had a directory with both tifs and jpgs, and I wanted
to see only the jpgs. So I wanted to temporarily disable the tif entry.
I tried unchecking the checkbox by the tif line (without knowing what
you tell me above), but that didn't seem to do anything, even after
clicking Apply.
