How can I change the columns in File-> Open views program?

I use El Capitan 10.11.3 on a MacBook Pro. I start with a clean system. I copied my files from my backup and reinstall my programs.

This created a problem, seeking to resolve by changing the column headings in the views of program "file-> open.

Whatever program I use, when I open a file, the window displays currently "Date added". It is of no use to me as the "Date added" to all my files is exactly the same - date, I have copied them on my own hard drive brilliant from my backup.

In finder views, I can opt to display "update" instead of "added". So I order the files by date, whenever this is useful.

However, whenever I try to open a file in a program, it is impossible to find things by date, because they all have the same "date added". I need to be able to see the "change date".

I find anywhere that allows me to change this, either in the system preferences, or when opening a specific program. Don't I found clues to aid or the forum.

Can someone tell me what I need to do?

Thanks in advance.

Mike

Right click on the headers (if in list view) and select the headers you want to see.

Alternatively, use the Arrangement to organize the desired date.

  • How can I change the unrecognizable FrameMaker file format?  Why has he become unrecognizable after changing the file name?

    I update an existing project in the FrameMaker10, which is located in a structure of book.  I changed the names of the files in the directory, they upgrade 11 FrameMaker and saved.  When I try to add them to the book (whose name I also updated) a problem for some files. When I try t add them to the book file, I get an error message that says that the book file is unrecognizable.  (It allows me to add it, but it appears in the file book with an icon that has a blue "M" in there.)  Why is that happening and how can I change these files to normal FrameMaker files?  Thank you.

    Try to open the problem files using a text editor or viewer of files to see what the first bytes contain. Contains all the binary files valid FM FM 11 in the first bytes of the file.

    During the updating of the books, it is sometimes better just to create a new address book file and add files to it.

    When you rename files in a book, changes at the level of the system will break any links/cross-references between files, so it is always best to use the option rename book in the file to change the names of files FM. This will keep the correct links.

  • How can we change the types of files in Vista?

    I'm changing a. WAV (file audio .wav) in one. JPG (JPEG image file)
    I remember you can easily do in XP, but Vista gives me some problems
    Thanks in advance for your time

    I wish you had said this in the first place. It would have saved me time going haring Google trying to find something that would work. No wonder I couldn't understand how you were converting an audio file to an image file. Next time be more come on your final goals.

    Vista can display the file extension like any other Windows operating system. Go to control panel > Classic view > Folder Options > tab display uncheck the checkbox "Hide extensions of known file types". Apply/OK outside. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  • How can I change the columns in the fluid grid to a darker color.  The default color is too gray for me to see them on my screen

    Thanks for any comments I receive. This version is CC2015.

    peoj

    Dreamweaver does not create columns colored for a grid "bootstrap" for good reason: each line has its own set of columns in the layout. So, if you nest a row within another column, the nested line gets a new grid layout of 12 columns (assuming you are using a default grid). Although having a color grid layout looks like a good idea, it would become very difficult to work as soon as you start the nesting of the lines.

    In Live View mode, Dreamweaver adds a handle to resize the column to the right edge of the currently selected column:

    There are also a handful of column Offset on the left edge

    When you drag handles, Dreamweaver snaps to the next column and it will update the .col-*-* or the classes in the display of the item. In the previous screenshot, you can see immediately that the currently selected column is an important feature of 10 columns wide and is offset by a column.

    It takes a little practice to get used to its operation, but it quickly becomes clear what are the columns of size without the distraction of a color to the background grid.

      When I tried to open the folder my pictures, I would click on start, then on my images.  He opened for the thumbnails of all my photo folders.  That's how I want it, but now when I click on start, then on my images, it takes me to a search screen, not a view of the records themselves.
