The Fprop dialog box.

Fprop was introduced in CoreGUI Enterprise B123702-beta-6.3-pre-123703 as an addon for fmgrv2. This is used to display file or folder properties and various information.

This menu also allows MD5-This to be launched to compute MD5 hashes.

Behaviour

Fprop cannot be launched from the Apps menu or any other method excluding fmgrv2. Forcefully via CoreGUI-Control or CoreGUI-CLI will result in an AppCrash being displayed, along with a broken GUI.

Overview

Fprop is an addon that's been planned in CoreGUI for a long time, while this may seem basic, it needs a fair amount of work in order to be useful which Fprop now contains.

Fprop will display the following information about a file:

  • File Name -- This is the file name alone, without extension or path
  • Type -- File or Folder/Directory
  • Extension -- The file extension (i.e. .mp3, .mp4, .exe)
  • Directory -- The folder the item resides in
  • Full Path -- The full path to the file/folder
  • Attributes -- In numerical form, the properties of the file or folder
  • Created -- The creation date
  • Last Modified
  • Last Accessed
  • Size (In bytes)
  • CoreGUI System Warning (If a CoreGUI file/folder is selected)

Bugs

  • On some systems, the icon for a file might not display correctly. This is then replaced by the default ApplauncherGlows resource
  • Open Location does not always properly interact with fmgrv2, causing the path to be displayed incorrectly
  • Full Path does not always show the path
  • Some folders containing CGUI in the path may incorrectly cause Fprop to display a warning
  • The Rename and Delete functions are currently disabled
  • The OK button disappears when changing to the Compute Hash tab
