Sorry for bringing up an old post, but it seems to be a bug that is still present, and googling brought me here so thought it would be a good place to go from.
After further experimenting I think I can see why Kino had the problem but Marek didn't. In summary it is the "seperate for each selected item" tickbox that isn't working properly, full troubleshooting steps below.
64 bit donor version 790a. All the following using the command cmd. All other options default unless specified. 2 files selected when running the tests.
- With the parameter
/c echo %ActivSelName% & pause
It works
- Same as above but tick the "Seperate for each selected item", the variable still works but it doesn't run a seperate command for each one. In other words ticking the box does nothing :-/
- Leaving the box ticked, if I now add activesel so the parameter looks like this
/c echo %ActivSelName% %ActivSel% & pause
Now the tickbox appears to work as expected as it launches 2 seperate CMD windows. BUT it breaks the activeselname variable
and just shows the variable name instead of the filename it is referencing. This is like the problem Kino was having.
- Keeping the same parameter (both variables), if I now remove the tick from the box "Seperate for each selected item", all the variables work again.
I think you're doing a great job with the software Marek, it's improved a lot over the years and has some great functionlity now.
Would really appreciate this fixing, being able to symbolic link items between the panes is really important for me.
Cheers, Matt
