evaluator:applicable_contexts:functions:standard_variables

A number of variables are available to the evaluator in this context. Note that some are only applicable to toolbars in the standalone image viewer, and some only apply to Lister toolbars.

Variable Type Description

dest

path

The current destination path.

dest_shell

bool

True if the destination is a shell (virtual) folder hosted by Explorer, otherwise false.

expanded

uint

Returns the number of expanded directories.

fullscreen

bool

Viewer only. True if the viewer is fullscreen, otherwise false.

key_repeat

bool

True if the function was launched from a repeated key press (i.e. the key was held down).

lister_title

string

Returns the current title string of the Lister.

preparse_dummy

bool

True if the evaluator is being called with a dummy filename as part of pre-parsing. Opus will do this for evaluator expressions inside a @perfile block. You should generally respond normally (Opus is querying to find out which values the evaluator expression requires), but you may want to filter out some behaviour (e.g. logging) for pre-parsing.

selbytes

uint64

Returns the number of selected bytes (files + directories that have had their sizes calculated).

seldirs

uint

Returns the number of selected directories.

selfiles

uint

Returns the number of selected files.

selimage

bool

Viewer only. True if an area of the image has been selected, false otherwise.

selitems

uint

Returns the total number of selected items.

selpath

string

Provides the full pathname of the currently selected file. In a Lister this means the selected file with input focus (e.g. the file you right-click on). In the viewer this means the currently viewed image. Note that main toolbars in the Lister are not necessarily refreshed when the file selection changes, and so a button on the main toolbar using this may not always show the correct information.

source

path

The current source path.

source_shell

bool

True if the source is a shell (virtual) folder hosted by Explorer, otherwise false.

totalbytes

uint64

Returns the total number of bytes (files + directories that have had their sizes calculated).

totaldirs

uint

Returns the total number of directories.

totalfiles

uint

Returns the total number of files.

totalitems

uint

Returns the total number of items.

viewmode

str

Returns the current view mode in the file display. Values are largeicons, smallicons, list, details, power, thumbnails and tiles.

As well as the above variables, you can also use evaluator functions like IsChecked and IsEnabled to query other information about the state of the Lister.
