Add a tick to a block of individual files in a folder

Postby alanem » Mon Oct 31, 2022 12:31 pm

Apologies if this is being repeated or if it is not relevant. I have a long list of files in several folders that require attention. Is it possible to tick off those files that have been attended to without going through the individual rename process? Thanks

Hi, maybe you could mark them as "Read-Only" in the file properties -> attributes (right click on a file) to identify those files? Then you can show/sort read-only files in BRU using the Attributes column.

CTRL - A will select all files in the main left field
then
CTRL - mouse click the files you don't wish to edit before applying changes

or click the first file then go down to the n'th file and then hold shift-click the last file of the desired block of files and then DELETE will remove them from BRU list (it will show a pop up stating it wont delete them directly from your disk only from BRUs list)

Hi, that is also a good option! DELETE will remove files from the BRU list until list is re-loaded.
