Hi,

I love how Houdini is able to display sequences of padding files as one entry while browsing folders.

Does a plugin for windows explorer exist (or an alternative file manager) that can do this, too? I were not able to find something usefull via google. Perhaps I just don't know the right key words for the google search…

Cheers,
bollili

I've looked into Explorer mods/replacements before and can't see Explorer being able to do this. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Explorer#Extensibility [en.wikipedia.org]

I haven't seen an alternative app that will be able to either, without extensive work.

Total Commander and the sequencer plugin can do that. Take a look.

I have been using TC for sometime and it is a great software. Thinking that it shouldn't be only me who needs something like that, I have searched google with “total commander sequences as one” and there it is.
