Feature request: Integration with Windows Explorer Details Pane

Open Rudde opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

In Windows explorer you can turn on Details pane under "View" this will for example preview images and information about them when you click them right in Windows explorer without opening the image. Gives information about dimensions, size creating and so on. When working towards what files to move to my NAS I some times get conflict on names, but despite images looking somewhat the same, they're not always the same, like one with a filter applied and the other without.

It would be nice to just get the hash value right in the details pane instead of having to right-click properties and looking at the hash tab every time for both files.

Maybe have a limit on how big files to do that on automatically tho, or what kind of files types.

I don't feel like this would be a too useful feature, considering that data is also indexed (iirc), so you'd end up practically hashing all files. Things like music metadata take few kilobytes of read, even just hashing 1 MB files would be large in comparison, and i assume such a limit wouldn't really satisfy you or anyone.

Regardless, I'm still accepting contributions for this if you (or someone else) decide to implement it

@Rudde

conflict on names

to insert the checksum of this file into the file name? example Clipboard01.[5D2269C8].png Clipboard01.[F23FB43A].png
