File list and filename input

In the file list, the name, type and size as well as the date and time of creation are shown for each file of the chosen type. Depending on the length of the filenames, the list can be scrolled to the right in order to be able to see the additional information.

Folders appear with their name, creation date and time. They are additionally characterized as such by the folder symbol.

You can scroll through the list with the arrow buttons and the bar at the right edge of the list.

If you double-click on a folder in the file list, this becomes "opened" and a list of the files that are contained in it is displayed. Clicking on a filename transfers this to the editable input field at the right edge of the dialog. Naturally you can also input a filename by hand; with a new file this is necessary to avoid the overwriting of an existing file. Double-clicking on a filename has the same effect as the standard operating system file selector: The name is accepted and the dialog quit. The double-click works thus as a click on a filename and a further one on "OK".

Documents, fonts, modules and drivers can not only be loaded individually, but several can be loaded into memory at the same time. To do this, click on several files with the [Shift] key pressed. If you have selected a file and immediately afterwards click on a file further down (or further up) the list with the [Alternate] key pressed, then all the files between the first and last selected will be selected as well. After a click on the "OK" button, all these will be loaded together.

A click on this button in the bottom right corner of the file list switches the list width and size of the preview area.


If you start entering a file name in the file name input field, the autolocator of the Calamus file selector tries and selects according file names in the file list which match your entered characters. Use this e.g. if you want to jump to the first list entry with "T" in a very long list of files by simply entering "T". Then scroll with the arrow keys up or down the list.
