opening more than one bookmark

[harryray2]

As I can't keep the dropdown menu open after selection
viewtopic.php?f=5&t=10123

is there a way of creating a bookmark to open two or more bookmarks or two or more searches at the same time in different, separate windows?

Also if I want to create a search (in the search box), for example, dc:today and dm:last10mins at the same time in the same search window.

[void]

No, not with bookmarks sorry.

Bookmarks are for a single search.


Consider opening your searches from a bat file:


Everything.exe -new-window -search dc:today
Everything.exe -new-window -search dm:last10mins

-new-window

Thanks, that should work...

How would I get this to work if entered on the same line in the search box:?

dc:today dm:today

[void]

dc:today | dm:today

| = OR

[harryray2]

I tried OR...Does dm: give me the dc: results as well?

[void]

The following will give results from both dc:today and dm:today:

dc:today | dm:today

[harryray2]

Thanks, what I mean is, if I put in dc: today I get 20 results but if I enter dc: | dm: or I just enter dm: I get 48 results

[void]

You can omit the dc:today in your search as dm:today will most likely include all the files created today.

I did as you suggested and created a batch file..this solves my problem nicely.

Is there a way within Everything to create more than one window so that when they open they are shown side by side, cascaded or stacked, or is that controlled by my OS?

[void]

To set the position of the Everything window:
Everything.exe -x <x> -y <y> -width <width> -height <height>

For example:
Everything.exe -new-window -x 200 -y 200 -width 800 -height 600


Is there any option to lock window size?

[harryray2]

Thanks, only problem is, is that it remembers the last windows size and position..is there a way to over-ride this?

[harryray2]

Is there a way to 'forget' previous window position?

[void]

No.

Consider setting the position and size with your normal shortcut to open Everything:
Everything.exe -x <x> -y <y> -width <width> -height <height>


If you are opening Everything from the tray icon or hotkey, include the position and size in the your tray_show_command_line.

[harryray2]

Even if I set the shortcut to a particular size, I'm inevitably going to change the size of the main window during use. This brings me back to the same problem of the batch file opening the windows to the same size that the previous window was at.

I didn't realise, until I posted a suggestion regarding tabs, that tabs is on your to do list.

I think tabs will solve this nicely...
