[feature request ] apply action on the fly with hotkey

Post by asamirid »

greeting everyone 👋🏼👋🏼..

i have tried the code
get-date-modified:<#clipboard:>
to copy timestamps from one file to a group of files as therube told me days ago in a previous post and it worked fine.

and because this is a frequent action i do it daily i assigned a hotkey shortcut [crtl+t] to fast apply the action

the problem is, the hotkey [crtl+t] bring the "set file time" dialog box in the screenshot down below instead of applying the "set time" action on the fly

set_file_time_screenshot.jpg
set_file_time_screenshot.jpg (63.53 KiB) Viewed 630 times

my request is in the future builds to have the option to select between calling the "set file time" dialog box and apply the action without confirmation when using the hotkey..

and i wish for a longshot here, that i can copy timestamps from list of files to another list as i can do with the "rename tool" in the "apples and oranges" post i wrote days ago here. how can i copy filenames from one list to another ??

i also hope that will be in the future builds of everything a context submenu called "special paste" that has all special paste functions possible, like "paste file name (s), paste time stamps (s), paste ownership, etcetera .."

thank you for everything 👋🏼👋🏼..

I will consider a command to set the filetime directly.

Thank you for the suggestion.
