The Configure Basket Window
To open the Configure Basket window, in the Manage Baskets window, select a Basket and click Configure. (You can also double-click it in the list, or right-click the Basket on the desktop and select Configure.)
The Configure Basket window lets you tell File Viking how to respond when you drop one or more files into this particular Basket. You do this by adding Actions to the list.
Name and Description:
These appear whenever you hover the mouse over a Basket on the desktop. It's probably best to use short Names and save the longer explanation for the Description.
Basket Group:
Baskets can belong to a Group. This is helpful if you have lots of baskets.
Look and Feel:
Tailor how the Basket appears on the desktop by specifying its Icon, Window Color and Transparency. The Basket's appearance immediately reflects any changes, so you can play with these settings until the look is just right.
Assigned Actions:
File Viking performs these actions one by one, whenever files are dropped on the floating Basket.
To change the order of execution, select actions and use the Up and Down buttons.
Use Add to add a new action and Configure to change an Action's settings, e.g. to specify an email address.
To run the actions on batches of files, unselect this option. File Viking will then wait until you "Run" the basket by right-clicking its icon.
Start Actions Immediately:
When this is selected, File Viking performs the actions as soon as you drop files into the Basket.
Empty Basket after Successful Execution:
For working with batches of files. If you unselected Start Actions Immediately, then you can also unselect this option so that the files remain in the Basket. This is useful if you always want to process the same set of files.
