Column Display

The display of columns in the Preview List of the Detailed Information window can be controlled manually or automatically. All columns are organized into groups. The enabling of columns can be done one at a time or on a group basis.

Automatically Enabled Columns Mode

In this mode, the display of columns are automatically enabled based on selected criteria. For all selections, there are some basic columns that are always enabled. e.g. old name, new name, old length, new length, name type.

By Meta-Data Insert

Column groups are enabled based on what type of meta data you are trying to insert. e.g. If you are inserting music meta data then the columns of the music and music tag groups will be enabled.

By Extension

Column groups are enabled based on the extension of files that are being renamed. e.g. If you are renaming mp3 files then the columns of the music and music tag groups will be enabled.

Manual Column Configuration Mode

Column attributes can be manually configured if 'automatically enabled column' mode is disabled. Individual or groups of columns can be enabled/disabled. The columns can also be arranged in any order. One thing to keep in mind is that the fewer columns that are displayed the faster the refresh/scrolling is of the preview panel. i.e. displaying 120 columns will be slower than displaying 20 columns.

Name Properties Group

These are columns used to display properties related to the file/folder name. e.g. name length, pathname.

Auto Enabled Columns Group

These are columns that are always automatically enabled when required. Disabling/Enabling of these types of columns is not user configurable.

Always Enabled Columns Group

These are columns that are always enabled. Disabling/Enabling of these columns is not user configurable.

File Properties Columns Group

These are columns that apply to all names.

Music Columns Group

These are columns used to display music meta-data for music (or audio) files.

Music Tag Columns Group

These are columns used to display music tag meta-data for music (or audio) files.

Other Columns

Other column groups are available for displaying email, image, html, office properties, video, and hash meta-data.

Column Widths

Column Widths are automatically saved when modifying them on the Detailed Information Window. A button is available in this option panel for resetting the widths to their default. This option is available during manual or automatic column control modes.
