- | ====== How to manage the priority of your associations ====== | ||
- | DropIt allows to create an unlimited number of associations for your files and folders. It means that sometimes, when you drag&drop them on the floating icon, they could match with more than one association and DropIt asks you to decide //"how to process them"// selecting an action. | ||
- | |||
- | {{ :select.png?nolink&230 |}} | ||
- | |||
- | This is the default solution used by DropIt to manage ambiguities, but there are various ways to customize it. | ||
- | |||
- | \\ | ||
- | ---- | ||
- | |||
- | ===== You can "Select ambiguities checkbox by default" ===== | ||
- | |||
- | From DropIt Options you can enable this setting to have the checkbox of ''Select Action'' window selected by default. This is a minor advantage, but allows to reduce to //only one click// the procedure of selection for all the ambiguities of a process. | ||

- | {{ :select2.png?nolink&230 |}} | ||

- | ===== You can define some "Favourite Associations" ===== | ||
- | |||
- | When you are editing an association, you can make it a ''Favourite Association'' selecting the "''gray star''" next to the ''Name'' field (it will become a "''yellow star''"). Now this association will have the priority over the other normal associations and will be automatically used in case of more matches. | ||
- | |||
- | {{ :favourite.png?nolink&300 |}} | ||
- | |||
- | Obviously, in case of ambiguity between more favourite associations, DropIt will ask you to select the action to perform. | ||
