Description ats37 2002-07-11 18:25:33 UTC

I had a file of unrecognized type in a mounted folder.  I 
double-clicked on it and, without thinking, hit OK on 
the "Treat file ... as text?" dialog that appeared.  
However, there now doesn't appear to be any way to convert 
it back without editing/deleting the .nbattrs file by 
hand.  It would be nice if there was a "Don't treat as 
Text" option on the context menu instead, that removed 
the .nbattrs file entry.  Obviously, for files recognized 
as Textual Objects due to their extension or MIME type 
being in the Object Types settings this shouldn't appear.

Comment 3 David Simonek 2002-08-07 10:51:30 UTC

Would it be somehow handled by newer data systems impl?

Comment 4 David Strupl 2002-10-11 15:59:20 UTC

Sorry that it took so long - but isn't
Tools --> Convert to default
what you are looking for?
Marking as invalid.

To David: yes these two actions will be no longer needed in the
new datasystem impl.
