Directory Opus File Types
As well as the registered file type extensions and groups, there are a number of psuedo-file types that Opus
defines. These are listed at the top of the File Types dialog.
Changes that you make to these file types will affect general classes of file
rather than specific types. They are:
- All files: All files belong to this class. Changes that
you make to this will affect all types of file (but not folders).
- All files and folders: All files and folders belong to
this class - changes you make to this will affect all files and folders
throughout the system. The "standard" context menu commands like
Cut/Copy/Paste are
implemented through this class, as those are context menu commands that are
relevant for any file or folder.
- All folders: All folders belong to this class. Changes
that you make to this will affect all folders but have no effect on files.
- Collection item: This class affects items that are stored
in Opus File Collections.
The normal use of this class is to add context menu items like Remove
from Collection.
- Recognized images: This class contains all image types
that Opus recognizes. It's similar but not identical to the
Images group. Although the Images group
defaults to containing most image formats Opus understands, you can add
any file extensions you like to it - whereas the Recognized images
class automatically contains all recognized image formats and no
others.
- Unknown file types: Any unregistered file types belong to
this class. For example, if you have a file called
myfile.bumblebee and .bumblebee isn't a
registered file extension, files with that extension would automatically
belong to this class.
