Navigation: switch between images in windows search results
Would be real nice if you could navigate through search results in windows explorer, not just all files in the folder
e.g. folder has 1000 images, you search "frogs" and it gives just 10 images - so app would switch between those 10 images when an image is opened from the search results
I've looked into this type of functionality for some other projects, and I'm not exactly sure it can be done.
Windows Image viewer is tightly integrated into Explorer, and it knows what's in the list and vice versa. I'm not aware of an API call which allows a program to figure out what search results are listed in explorer after searching.
Here, I think this is it: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/28166945/getting-the-results-of-an-explorer-shell-search-in-a-program-that-was-launched-f
I stand corrected... thanks for googling it for me 😂
Looks fun. Let me read through that a bit more... Do you have any experience coding it in?
No I don't... that's a rather specific task, even the person who asked it was asking because he was coding an image viewing app it seems 😄
