W7 Explorer View settings - mix & match?
Hi all--
Is it possible to have different view settings for different sub-folders? Scenario:
I have a top-most directory called My Documents and within that folder/directory, I have 2 subfolders called My Word Files and My Pix. As it stands, I have the list view selected for My Documents. However, I'd like to change the display option in just My Pix to something more visual, say, Extra Large Icons. So I change My Pix to Extra Large Icons.
This is where I miss something. When I return to My Pix, one of two things occurs:
- All files within My Documents display as Extra Large Icons OR
- All files with My Documents display under List view settings.
Is there 3rd party software that can allow me to change my view settings on a folder by folder basis? I'd like some subfolder files to show up as Icons and others to show up as a list and W7 doesn't seem to allow me that simple functionality. (Or maybe i does and I'm unaware of how to do it.)
Sorry for the rambling, but it's hard for me to describe things and I hope I did well enough to generate some helpful responses.
As always, thanks all for any insight.
