How can I search for Pinned files?

Post by davenovak » Mon Jan 15, 2007 2:21 pm

From the Search tab, I would like to be able to search for pinned files. However, I do not see this as an option. I realize that I can get the pin / unpin history, but this is not the same thing. Alternatively, I would also like to search for unpinned files.

At the present time, one of the things I'd like to do is find all pinned files in a particular branch and unpin these.

Is there a way to do this?

Currently, there isn't a real good way to do that. I can put in a feature request for that to be a search option if you wish.

You could view history of only pin/unpin actions, and it will list out the folders for you that the pin files are sitting in.

As a feature request, I would like to see:
  • 1. The ability to search for pinned / unpinned items from the search tab
    2. From the resulting search list above, be able to select items in that list and request that they become pinned / unpinned (via right mouse or menu)
    3. A command-line interface to pin / unpin files (not folders) in a given root, recursively or non-recursively
Given how full-featured the rest of the product looks, I'm surprised that you don't have this already.
