customn columns and excel functions broken

[anmac1789]

It seems like custom column functionality with excel is not working for example, column1:=right($path,10) doesn't give 10 characters from the right of the path in column1. Did something change ?

[void]

There was a major performance improvement to formulas in 1366a.
Assigning a column would take a second or two with older versions.
In 1366a it is now instant. (but slightly broken, please see below)



Please try:

addcolumn:column1 column1:=right($path:,10)

It's currently broken for folders.

Please see 1366a-mod1 for a fix.
Does the issue persist with 1366a-mod1?

I had forgot the colon (:) after $path but with version 1366a it is still broke for folders

It's currently broken for folders.

Please see 1366a-mod1 for a fix.

The issue does not persist with mod1 version but is there some change being implemented currently?

Thank you for testing 1366-mod1.

I'm doing more testing my end and will have an update soon.

Thank you void and I just noticed also that the date accessed of folders is not updated or correctly reflected after rebuilding the index with mod1 (1.5.0.1367a (x64))

Thank you for the issue report anmac1789,

The new method for reading changes in 1364a+ is reading a stale cached date accessed value.

I am working on a fix..

edit: this isn't stale cache.
Everything only updates date accessed values for folders when they are modified (change attributes or renamed).

I will look into making Everything update the date accessed when a child file/folder changes.

i dont understand, why not display the date accessed exactly as windows displays them ? including any changes, updates ...

and also, in everything 1.5 version 1366a, column1:=name: doesn't display folder names. The entire column1 is blank

[void]

Everything cannot track changes to date accessed if this information is indexed.

Please try disabling date accessed indexing and pressing F5 to update this information when required.

I'll look into to updating date accessed information when the folder is modified.

and also, in everything 1.5 version 1366a, column1:=name: doesn't display folder names. The entire column1 is blank

It's a known issue.

Please see 1366a-mod1 for a fix.
