Just a tip: did you edit the right one?
See menu "Help > About TC > INI-Files" for file location.
Use %commander_ini% in TC-Commandline to open the current used ini.

No, not %commander_ini%. We are talking here about wcx_ftp.ini, not about wincmd.ini. (The only menu item in "Network" related to "Show hidden files" is about FTP)
2PepeCZ,
your question is about FTP, right?

There are, but that is a very bad way to spread information. Most users are not even aware of existence of this file.
All those little features that can be found in history.txt, wikipages, ini files, forum topics and other obscure places, should be properly documented in the help file or online help which doesn't even exist.

Subject: Sort and Display Problem
Posted: Tue Jan 30, 2018 8:25 am (GMT -6)
I have Win 7, 64 bit and TC 9.1. I use Move function to move files from one folder to another. Usually it works well, but recently I see that the file name in the receiving folder has file names from A to Z, and then when moving additional files, their file names are appended to the earlier files instead of ending up in alphabetical order. In other words, files are listed A to Z and the newer files start A to Z again at the end of the first set. Has some switch gotten flipped which causes this to happen? Any suggestions?

My guess is that the sort order has changed. Check menu Show > Name (Ctrl+F3).

Subject: Change background color for active / inactive panes
Posted: Tue Jan 30, 2018 10:12 am (GMT -6)
Hi,
I'm considering switching to Total Commander from xplorer2, due to the latter's update pricing and poor HiDPI support, and I love the free edition so far, except for one thing. Despite scouring the options - particularly the "Color" section - I can't find any way to color the active and inactive panels independently. I figured out how to change the panel background globally, but that just changes every pane to the same background.
I use Windows Magnifier 95% of the time (very poor vision) so it's nice to be able to tell which pane I'm in, even without being able to see the box around the selected file. xplorer2 allows me to do this, and I didn't realize how much I relied on the feature until I no longer had it.
Anyone willing to help the noob sort this out? I'm also open to other ways to make the active panel obvious, if the color thing just isn't possible.

Hi,
that's possible.
Start with:
Configuration - Options - View Mode - Add...
Continue with:
https://ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?p=337070#337070
So you would have to make
- 2 View Modes (Color1 for left panel, Color2 for right panel)
- 3 Buttons recommended

Subject: Switch between minimal layout and default layout (shortcut)
Posted: Tue Jan 30, 2018 12:05 pm (GMT -6)
I want to switch(keyboard shortcut) between minimalistic layout
and default layout.
Minimalistic layout i understand layout without:
- button bar
- drive combobox
- tabstop header
- status bar
- command line
I need this to save screen space while using bug.n tiling window manager.
How to do that?

Hey, thanks for the tip! That definitely got me looking in the right direction, but it appears that Total Commander doesn't support multiple commands in one hotkey, e.g., Change to inactive color -> Change focus to other panel -> Change to active color. Fortunately, a couple custom commands and an AutoHotKey script solved it completely. For reference:
I used these custom commands:
Code: |
em_viewPaneI # cm_SrcViewModeList PaneI (inactive panel color) bound to Alt+J
cm_FocusTrg # cm_FocusTrg (switch to other panel) bound to Alt+K
em_viewPaneA # cm_SrcViewModeList PaneA (active panel color) bound to Alt+L
|
And this AutoHotKey script:
Code: |
; totalcmd.ahk
; This script sets up a contextual pane background for Total Commander.
#MaxHotkeysPerInterval 1000
#NoEnv
#SingleInstance, Force
SendMode Input
SetTitleMatchMode, 3 ; Forces complete matches for window titles.
SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir% ; Sets consistent working directory.
#IfWinActive ahk_exe TOTALCMD64.EXE
; Macro. Press Tab to activate inactive panel color, swap panels, and activate
; active panel color.
Tab::SwapTCPane()
SwapTCPane() { Send, !j Send, !k Send, !l Return }
|
The script simply calls the three hotkeys for "Change current panel to inactive color", "Move focus to other panel", and "Change current panel to active color", in order. As it's a script, the change happens instantaneously, just like in xplorer2. So, a little work, but perfectly usable.
Thanks again for the help![/code]

How about Configuration > Options > Refresh > [x] Refresh when files are create, deleted and renamed and
[x] Put added files at the END of the file list (default: sorted)?

Internal commands can be combined up from Total Commander 9.0 as follows: Code: |
em_viewPaneI,cm_FocusTrg,em_viewPaneA |
F1 - Help: 1.b. What's new in this version?
Ctrl + F -> search: combine (see example): Internal commands

Just a little FYI:
I just noticed that you can open TC's ini files (wincmd.ini and wcx_ftp.ini) directly from within TC. Select main menu "Configuration" -> "Change Settings Files Directly". This will open TWO notepads, one with wincmd.ini, the other with wcx_ftp.ini. So, no need to go hunting for the location of wcx_ftp.ini ![Smile]()

I guess the list is just not updated during the copy/move process.
This is by design.
Otherwise the file entries would jump fourth and back unpredictable for each new entry sorted immediately.
This makes it impossible to select a certain entry, if you are working at the other panel meanwhile.
Pressing F2 or Ctrl-R will force refresh of the list with current sorting order though.

Subject: Keep background color for active/inactive panel
Posted: Tue Jan 30, 2018 2:15 pm (GMT -6)
For me, it does not quite open up, as you have managed with the AHK script, always to deposit the active panel
and the inactive panel with different colors, after you have pressed the Tab key.
Whereby I assume that the active window should always have the same color.
EDIT:
I think I have found a solution to this point: https://ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?p=337453#337453

Are you saying F2 or Ctrl-R should re-sort the file names? It doesn't for me.
Nor does Configuration>options>refresh. And what is [x]? What do you mean by that?

1. Create new user command with these internal command:
cm_VisButtonbar, cm_VisButtonbar2, cm_VisDriveCombo, cm_VisTabHeader, cm_VisStatusbar, cm_VisCmdLine
(i don't know if you need "cm_VisButtonbar2")
2. Assign keyboard shortcut
