    Can't find where in the program config I can resize the icons. Any suggestion? Thx.

  • Carlos Vega Carlos Vega posted a comment on discussion General Discussion

    Try this: Right click over file (let's say, .txt) > Open > Choose... (and then pick up the app you like in the second tab). Eventually, next time you want to open an .txt (if you right click over it first) you'll see a list of options (there the "magic" begins): right click over some of those options, and you'll be able to select a new default app or remove it from the list.

    The Github is even deader than this forum. Can anybody suggest why SpaceFM invoked with sudo in Lubuntu might suddenly decide to alter my default app for scripts and not let me reset it? I had it set to an editor, but now it insists on executing the script. And it won't recognize the regular gui method of assigning a default app through right-click on the file, open, right- click on the entry, Set-as-default. The entries are there. I can go through the motions, but nothing changes. I've used it for...

    When unmounting an USB drive opened in some tab Spacefm hand for a few seconds and then closes. The same thing happens if a folder is renamed while it is opened.Some months ago, right before an update, the default behavior was returning that tab to the home folder. Now it crashes and then, after reopening Spacefm, that tab starts in HOME.How do I recover the old behaviour? Thanks

    SpaceFM is amazing as it is. However, I have no use for the main menu bar, most of the time (and in a notebook, screen space is precious). I failed to find a way to hide it or remove it. I'd like to attain the same result like when running SpaceFM fullscreen (then main menu bar doesn't appear) but while not being in fullscreen mode, of course. Thx in advance! Edit: My bad.

    Hello, I have found that if I select a certain program (say geany) to open .txt files, then all text files are opened by geany by default, regardless of their extension, for example .sfz files or .trelby files, etc. Is there a way to select a specific program to open specific files by their extension?

    In researching this, I would simply use ncdu as a command instead of du. I have it now setup as ncdu %d as a command that opens in terminal and in color displays everything by size that I can open and display further

    I believe I have found what you are looking for, at least in part. Too sort by size including what the content is in folders right click on the right pane, select View and then Sort, there you can change to Mixed instead of Folders first. Once you sort by size again that does it. Here is a scrot showing it

    You are right, files are sorted by size. The problem is with directories, they remain in the same position as before.

    Maybe I am missing something but I simply click on the size tab in the directory window and it sorts up or down in size based on your clicks to sort by size

    Seeing as they haven't released any updates since 2018, AND they still list Freenode as their IRC network, I can only presume the project is dead. So I don't expect you will get an answer/solution.

    No, the button is not there anymore because I set accidentally a condition to display it that never occurs, that's the problem! By the way I have a daily backup of my home folder so I restored spacefm config files. But I still would like to know how to deal with this problem.

    Hi, The only feature I miss in SpaceFM is "Open Terminal here". I Only succeed to open a terminal using type="Application" ans selecting a .desktop file but I can't pass the current folder, or to be exact I do not know how to do it. I also tried with type=command but the best I achieved is opening a terminal displaying: "[ Finished ] Press Enter to close or s + Enter for a shell:" but the second option also does not open in the selected folder.

    I know that Unix is expert-friendly, but experts didn't design my keyboards... You see, I use different computers, each with its own keyboards layout, each with Delete in a different place. In one case the Delete button is twice the size of the buttons which surround it, and which I use more than I use "Delete", viz. "Home", "End", "PgUp", "PgDn". In another case "Delete" is above "Backspace". Thus: I want "Shift+Delete" to delete files, not "Delete" by itself. Here is what I did to set the Delete...

    I'd be happy with just a standard user interface instead of this insane "split-personality" between the main menu and the right click menu. The main menu doesn't even have the standard cut, copy, paste functions. Why name something "design" instead of "customize" like every other app since the stone age? I know, it's hard to say this, without ofending the author of SpaceFm, but that's the way I see it. Why not stick to standards, why try to reinvent the wheel? SpaceFM is wonderfull in all other aspects...

    Thanks for the tip. It did not work for me. However, I discovered that the root's editor window is blank. What should I insert here? I tried /bin/su and /bin/sudo and none works. It always defaults to a terminal requesting my pwd. Additionally, if I choose to open a Root Terminal, the request for pwd appears but the terminal goes away. I never used this feature before, prefering a Root Window instead. Shouldn't the Root Terminal switch automatically to # instead of $ and remain visible? Hector

    Did you check the option in preferences to run the editor in a terminal?

    I have been using SpaceFM for a long time. Have just installed from scratch Lubuntu 18.04 (had 16.04 but wanted a clean slate before upgrading). Then proceeded to install latest version of SpaceFM, initially using Synaptic. Version is 1.0.5.1 Presently I have an unresolved problem : Trying to open a Root Window will always default to Root Terminal . I then reinstalled the same version from the PPA, but the issue persists. Am I missing something or is this a bug? Thanks for any help you can provide....

    I have a command that runs a script to encode an mp3 file with lame. It rund fine but the progress bar is only showing 50% all the way through. Is there a method to supply the progress bar with info on the progress of the script or the lame output to make the progress bar move from 0 to 100% ?

    Well, I found how to revert changes, here is how: Close spacefm open ~/.config/spacefm/session in your favorite text editor search a string related to your change. In my case that was related to disabling Trash menu item if filesystem was not ext4, so I searched for "ext4". All the context filters for one menu item are on a single line, as your filter is the last added, it will be at he end of the line: Before: cstm_4e316476-cxt=1%%%%%1%%%%%1%%%%%1%%%%%%%%%%2%%%%%7%%%%%/Trash/files%%%%%2%%%%%7%%%%%/Trash/info%%%%%19%%%%%0%%%%%ext4...

    Hi, I tried some contextual filters for a plugin. Unfortunately my last test do not let me activate the menu item anymore, it is always greyed out. My question is: how do I edit this menu item now as SpaceFM allows only to do this on an highlighted item? (that is IMHO a stupid design....) It is to late to revert to the last spacefm session, and I do no want to delete my spacefm config folder Thierry B.

    I don't know what Nautilus and Caja are doing these days but do you mean put the total number of files recursive in the size column? Anything is possible, but I suspect that NOT doing that is one the big things that makes lighter file browsers lighter and faster. I just took a properties on a subdirectory in a data filesystem and it took 4 seconds to come up with a file count. There are 126 sibling subdirectories in the same directory. So, as a first order approximation, if they were all similar,...

    I'm not reporting it as a bug, because I haven't been able to reproduce it. I had 2 instances of Spacefm open at the time, at least 1, I think both, as an ordinary user. I was testing a script that was supposed to be (and was, actually) creating files in one of the tabs of one of the Spacefm windows. When I fiinally caught on that the files were in fact being created, but that Spacefm just wasn't noticing, I tried: - Going up a directory, and back down - Shutting the window down and opening a new...
