Configuration - Tabstops                            Back
 
Use this page to set the tabstops for the two file windows.
You can also choose if the file extension should be appended directly to the filename (only separated by a point), or if it should also be aligned. You can also change the tabstops with the tabstop header directly above the file window. You must select 'Configuration' - 'save position' to keep the current position.
 
Field Description
 
Show file extensions:
directly after filename The file extension is appended to the filename, only separated by a point (as in Windows Explorer)
aligned (with TAB) All file extensions are show left adjusted.
 
Tabstops Choose the tabstops for extension, size, date/time and attributes here. The position of the file extension can only be changed when aligned is selected in the above section. You can use the scroll bars behind the edit fields to adjust the Tabstop positions.
 
Separators Choose the separator characters for Date, Time, Thousands and Decimal here. By default, the values from control panel (Windows settings) are used.
 
Adjust tabs to window width
If checked, Total Commander will resize the width of the name column if you resize the main window. The name column is resized so the extension, size, date and attribute columns stay right aligned.
Show century in date Show the years as '1996' etc. If this is unchecked, the years are shown as '96' (without the century) instead.
Use 12 hour AM/PM format
Shows the time in 12 hour format, with a for AM (before noon), and p for PM (afternoon). Otherwise, the 24 hour format is used.
Show directory count in footer
Shows the number of total and selected dirs/folders in the footer, e.g. 5 / 7 dir(s)
 
Size display Determines how the file size is shown in the main file lists. You can choose between
bytes The size is shown in bytes (default)
kbytes Size is shown in kbytes. 1 kbyte = 1024 bytes! (Note: SizeStyle1000 overrides this)
dynamic (x k/M/G) depending on the file size, it is displayed in bytes, kbytes, MBytes or GBytes
dynamic (x.x k/M/G) same as above, but with one digit after the decimal point to get a more exact size
dynamic (x k/M) depending on the file size, it is displayed in bytes, kbytes, or MBytes
dynamic (x.x k/M) same as above, but with one digit after the decimal point to get a more exact size
dynamic (x k/M/G/T) the size is displayed in bytes, kBytes, MBytes, GBytes, TBytes
dynamic (x.x k/M/G/T) same as above, but with one digit after the decimal point to get a more exact size
dynamic (x.xx k/M/G) two digits after the decimal point in kBytes, MBytes, GBytes
dynamic (x.xx k/M/G/T) two digits after the decimal point in kBytes, MBytes, GBytes, TBytes
 
Header/footer Same options as in Size display, but for the two header above and the two footers below the file windows, showing the total of marked and all files. This also affects the display of total and free space above the file lists, and also of the copy progress dialog (unless SizeTransfer is set manually).
 
Date format Choose the date format here, either month first (e.g. USA), day first (e.g. most of Europe), or year first (ISO format, used in many Asian countries). By default, the values from control panel (Windows settings) are used.
 
Default Sets the tabstops to the default values as they appear when Total Commander is started for the first time.
