It should be a simple thing to do, code-wise I would think. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/show-image-in-explorer-have-explorer-actually-select-the-image/?ID=f3000a72-9dbe-4d5b-8191-9e5c78e04ba5#2 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 21:00:38 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/show-image-in-explorer-have-explorer-actually-select-the-image/?ID=f3000a72-9dbe-4d5b-8191-9e5c78e04ba5#2 DisplayFusion Glad to hear it's working properly now

I'll add your double-click to open request to our list as well.

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/show-image-in-explorer-have-explorer-actually-select-the-image/?ID=f3000a72-9dbe-4d5b-8191-9e5c78e04ba5 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 16:52:13 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/show-image-in-explorer-have-explorer-actually-select-the-image/?ID=f3000a72-9dbe-4d5b-8191-9e5c78e04ba5 DisplayFusion When right clicking on the current wallpaper image and selecting "Show Image in Explorer", have DF actually select the file in explorer, instead of simply opening the folder where the wallpaper exists (useful if we have ALL wallpapers in 1 folder). This can be done by simply passing a command line to explorer.exe:

Example of explorer.exe syntax to select notepad.exe in c:\windows:
explorer.exe /select,%windir%\notepad.exe
So DF would simply do a ShellExecute to explorer.exe and instead of "%windir%\notepad.exe" it would provide the path to the current wallpaper that the user is seeking to open in explorer

As an added bonus, when we single or double click on the current wallpaper image, can you have it simply default to this command, as well (that is, default to: Show Image in Explorer), so it just is a faster way to do it?

These 2 things would be very helpful to me.
Thanks!

EDIT:
Never mind, for some reason mine was not working initially (strange!). Sorry about that.
But now it does.

I would still be interested in the single or double click action though, to perform this, if that request may be possible ]]>
