Folder name
« on: November 27, 2011, 02:24:10 am »
Is there a way to show only the folder name in a view? i.e. not have full path name, E:\video\simpsons\, just 'simpsons' folder name?

this will give you the "last folder"

ListItem([Filename (path)], Math(ListCount([Filename (path)], \) - 1), \)

An alternate method, which some find more natural: :-)

   regex([Filename (path)], /#([^\\]+)\\$#/, 1)

It would be nice if ListItem() supplied with a negative index would indicate items from the right, as in:

  ListItem([Filename (path)], -1, \)
