Can't Set Default for "Show Items From Subfolders"

I like to view several folders and subfolders at the same time...and then view another group of folders and subfolders, etc. etc. etc....and to do that I'm constantly going to View > Show Items From Subfolders because the command doesn't "stick." I've looked around, and don't see a way to set "Show Items From Subfolders" as a default. Does anyone know a way to do that?
Thanks for any help.

You can't do so and I'm still not sure you should, it is easy to forget
resetting it and when visiting a new folder with lot's of subfolders and
files not being cached it can slow down your workflow, but that is my
personal opinion
An option for you might be to open a new window for a new search in
different folders. By default the new window reflects the current window
with all subfolder content but changes also to without viewing subfolders
after having clicked on a new folder. However switching back to the other
window(s) they still have the 'show subfolders' active.
Instead of switching folders you could switch windows (I often have multiple
windows active and cycle through them using cmd+` (tilde key).

Every time Acrobat scans a document, I have to go to Initial View to set Navigation tab, Page layout, and Magnification. It does not remember the settings I last used.

Show items from subfolders not working

OK, this HAS to be something I've done............
PC, Windows 7, Bridge CC.
Open folder. It contains folders that have raw files, .dng files, and jpeg files.
Click and select "Show items from subfolders". It tells me there are no items.
I'm pretty sure this USED to work on this machine. It's been doing this for at least a week. I don't have any filters set, or anything else that I know of.
I just tried it on the laptop, also Bridge CC, and it works fine. Do I have some preference or what goofed up?

Yes, when I go to the subfolders, the images are there. But when I go back to the parent and try to show images in subfolders it says there are none. I figure it can't be Bridge 'cause I did the same thing on the laptop and the images in the subfolders display fine.
I don't SEE any filtering. And I've closed Bridge and reopened it, which I think resets the filters and such? Is there anywhere else I could be filtering? Again, I've restarted Bridge. I also tried different folders on different disks, and in every case it says there are no images.
I just checked preferences and I have that set to 5000MB, so anything smaller than 5GB should display, right? These are RAW files in the 40MB range. And when I go down to the child folder they display fine......
Clobber Bridge and reinstall?

Why is "Show Items from Subfolders" disabled during search?

When viewing a folder with many subfolders, the "Show Items from Subfolders" command is avaiable and I can view all (10000+) files as a "flat" list. However, if I type a keyword in the toolbar's Search box, the "Show Items from Subfolders" command is disabled. That's a big problem for me when, for example, I want to see all photos that have "skiing" in either the filename or in any of the keywords without having to open each subfolder.
Is there a reason the Subfolders option is disabled? Is there a workaround?
Thanks.

Thanks Curt.
Checking the box searches the subfolders (which also happens if you enter the search time in the Search box on the toolbar), but the results are still displayed as folders that you need to navigate into (rather than displaying all the files that were found in the "flat" format which is what the "Show Items from Subfolders" menu command does).

Show items from subfolders won't stick when searching (CS5)

For some reason after selecting a folder, and making sure "show items from subfolders" is selected, when I do a search in that folder, "show items from subfolders" gets deselected. Any idea why this might happen? I'm pretty sure it has worked normally in the past.

Well, in that case, it sounds like this is causing the problem. If you can't read the cache, then you probably can't read an index either.
Without knowing anything about your computer system, I'd suggest that you need to check for general account permission setup problems before looking at Bridge specifically.

Location bar show items from subfolders

When searching a master folder in bridge using the show items in subfolders is it possible to limit the search to the first level of the master folder and exclude all nested folders?

I don't think so. As I read it, 'Show Items From Subfolders' is defined to display the entire contents of a folder including its subfolders in a single continuous flat view.

How can i set image for any item in windows

i want to make button iconic in windows how can i do that in oracle 9i forms

First be aware that in forms .ico cannot be used for icons,
by default it is gif
so if you have an small gif file for your button you can alter the button properties in the property palette so that the button should be iconic (=> put to yes) and in the next filed iconname +put the name of the gif file without the extensoin (case sensitive)
Put this gif file in the icons/ path directory and your button will display the icon.
if you want more to know on the virtual path icons/ search this or the reports forum for virtual-path . you'll find plenty about it.
Hope it helps

"No Items" is displayed when "Show Items from Subfolders" is selected

When I select the "view subfolders" menu item in a folder with subfolders and items, Bridge indicates that it is indexing. Then it displays "No Items". If I go to each subfolder individually, the images are displayed. This only happends in some folders. I purged my cache, perhaps this is the problem but it didn't help. I found a similar discussion named "View Subfolders" from 2009 with a "Helpfull answer" linked to http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/332/332992.html but it is now not available. My operation system is Apple OS 10.8.1.

Show items from Subfolders in order of folders

We want to create a contact sheet of all our images, but we need the order to follow our folder order and not alphabetical order for all the folders combined. I am on CS5, but do have access to CS6 if that can be done there.
We need
folder a (a-z)
folder b (a-z)
folder c (a-z)
and not
all folders combined a-z
our images are named by job number and to rename each image with an abbreviaotn for brand be a huge task

Interesting, could be that us poor windows non cloud people might have to wait until CS7.
Of course I fully agree with the combination of poor and Windows...
But I'm not sure you have to wait for CS7, I don't think the update was needed for Windows perpetual license, only had something to do with the Retina Display of newer Macs according to this blog (did not read it fully myself):
http://blogs.adobe.com/photoshopdotcom/2012/12/photoshop-13-0-313-1-1-updates-now-availabl e.html
And the Cloud update was meant for problems occurring with Cloud install but yes, it seems they want to let benefit Cloud subscribers earlier with updates for newer features.
There seems to be a possibility to only subscribe for PS in the cloud but it also seems hard to find info about this, try the education section on the Adobe site.
It is also a choice, once you quit the Cloud you are on your own because you don't have a working copy left on your system like you do when having bought a copy yourself.
For me having PS, Bridge and Premiere Pro at hand including the option of also using InDesign, Acrobat Pro and Illustrator (need it to use occasionally) is very useful. Having a small business myself, it was not a hard choice to make. Monthly predictable costs for the whole Master Suite and up to date software are very useful for my situation. It's all about weighing the pro's and con's.

Problem With Show Items In Subfolders, Windows 7 64

Is there a way to make "Show Items From Subfolders" persistent in Bridge CS5. I'm on a Windows 7 64 bit machine. If I click on this under View, if I go to another folder and come back, it will not show the flattened view. Another problem, it seems not to work on all folders. For example, if I click on Show Items, say for my 1981 folder, it will work. If I then switch to 1982, and click on Show Items, nothing happens.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Chuck

That is as designed, the moment you change view or use another window it returns to normal view. That might be sounding as a disadvantage but for normal work it should not start with flat view to my opinion so this seems the best solution.
However flat view should work on al folders, provided they have subfolders with content in it. If they don't show you should first select the folder itself and with the menu tools / cache choose purge cache for folder and then try again.
Also check if you have the correct permissions for your disk and or folders.
If you need to always view the content of a certain folder in flat view take an other approach, just move all the files in that one folder. If you relay on correct renaming consider a batch rename that adds for instance the year and date (yyyymm) in front of the already existing filename.

Process open items: how to set defaults for the additional selections

Hi FI experts,
Can anyone tell me if it is possible to set defaults for the additional selections in the processing of open items.
I am using transaction F-04 (or F-06 or F-07) to post with clearing.
When processing the open items I can use additional selection parameters. In my case I need to use the document type. I would like to save this selection as a default but this doesn't seem to be possible.
1. it is not possible to save a variant for the processing of open items
2. I can not create a variant transaction (with trx. SHD0) for F-0x since this is only possible for dialog transactions
Do you see another way to store defaults for the additional selections in open item processing?
Thanks a lot.
Dimitri

Hi,
When you create a transaction variant from FB05, then also you will not able to default the value for additional selections variable. Hence SHD0 is not going to help.
As said above, either you can change the additional selection screen parameters, but here again you can't default the value. You can only reduce the number of entries on the screen.
Else you can create a custom transaction code by copying the standard. Even SAP recommends to create custom codes from standard tcode for clearing purposes depending on requirements.
Please check this link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/EN/41/37b8e7455b11d182b40000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
In the above link, in navigation choose clearing -- Specifications for processing open items
If it is a custom transaction then you can default document number.
Regards,
Ravi

I just purchased a Thunderbolt Display as an additional screen for Photoshop work. Following set up instructions appears to allow only mirroring of the screens. How can I set up to show/work in separate programs on each screen?

Yes, each blue rectangle is a screen. You can create different geometries, to suit your needs. For example, you can even make this kind of thing... :

How can I set default values for Allocate Mode in AO config?

Hi, How can I set default values for allocate mode in AO config. To be specific, in the attached vi, I need to set the Allocate Mode in AO Config to 'Use FIFO Memory (6)' if the value inside my case structure is false and to 'no change (0)' if the value inside the case strusture is true.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Create two constants for the Allocate Mode input (right click > create > constant). Place one in the true case of the case structure, and place the other one in the false case. Wire them to the same tunnel (border of the case structure), then wire the tunnel to the Allocate Mode terminal of the AO Config. I don't have Traditional DAQ installed, but that should do it.
