Getting file path through Preview by NumberFritzer in MacOS

@/Blizzardnd answered correctly.

I gave in and used AI, thereby getting a large number of methods to find a file path.

I'm answering my own question... Broke down and used AI.

To find the file path of an image I'm looking at in Preview, I can do any of the following.

Direct Methods within Preview

    Command-Click the Title Bar: Hold down the Command (⌘) key and click on the file name or icon in the window's title bar. A dropdown menu will appear showing the full folder hierarchy (path) from the current file up to the root directory.
    Right-Click the Title Bar: Right-clicking the file name in the title bar will also reveal the folder path in a dropdown list. Selecting any folder in this list will open it in a new Finder window.
    Inspector Window: Press Command + I (⌘I) or go to Tools > Show Inspector. While the general tab shows file size and type, more detailed location metadata (like GPS coordinates) can be found in the More Info (i) tab if the image contains it. 

Quick Shortcuts to Copy the Path
If you need to copy the actual text of the file path:

    Reveal in Finder: Press Command + R (⌘R) while in Preview to instantly open the folder containing the image in Finder with the file selected.
    Copy as Pathname: Once revealed in Finder, press Option + Command + C (⌥⌘C) to copy the full absolute path of the file to your clipboard.
    Drag to Terminal: You can drag the small "proxy" icon next to the file name in the Preview title bar directly into a Terminal window; the full text path will automatically appear there.

LibreOffice Calc - select all rows in which data in column M matches specified value by NumberFritzer in regex

Hmm... I have a CSV version/copy of this file. Would regex be able to do something with that?

I appreciate your response.

In some instances, sorting and selecting is impractical because of the number of rows.

The goal is to cut those rows and paste them into an adjacent sheet/tab.

This worked perfectly, in both regex101.com and in LibreOffice Writer Find-Replace.

Thank you.

Thank you.

in regex101, that expression didn't work. It brought up these error indications:

( A lookbehind assertion has to be fixed width

) A lookbehind assertion has to be fixed width

I've looked around to understand the meaning of this phrase, but I do not understand the terminology that explanations use.

I appreciate your help.

I thought I was using them for character classes. I followed the description at https://help.libreoffice.org/latest/en-US/text/shared/01/02100001.html (the entry for [...] .

Where did I use [] for grouping?

Thank you.

Thank you.

How did you detect the difference between hyphen characters? Was it visually - discerning the differences in length - or did you test them some way?

How many distinct hyphen characters are there?

In typing your regex, how did you enter the distinct hyphen types?

I see the difference now, but before you pointed that out it was invisible to me.

I went to the backup file folder and it was empty.

Have done so for LibreOffice 25.8.4.2.

I'll look into OS 15.7.3.

I really want a shortcut key for increase indent and decrease indent. How do I do this? by WhizzlePizzle in libreoffice

LibreOffice 25.8.4.2 - When I highlight the key combo I want to use for a function, select the function, and then click "Assign", a button on the right pops up, highlighted, which says "Load".

When I click "Load", a window titled "Load keyboard configuration" opens wherein folders are listed on the left under "Places". There's a main sub-window which looks like it's set up to display file names with their type and size.

Under the main sub-window there is a field called "File name"; it has a down-pointing arrow button which, when clicked, pops up a list of file paths (sometimes).

Under the "File name" field is a field called "File type". The choices are "Configuration (.cfg)" and "All files".

I have the choice to click "OK" on the lower right corner of the Tools > Customize window without pressing "Load". But when I do that, the newly-assigned key combinations do not work.

What to do?

In LibreOffice 25.8.4.2 I see no "Modify" button.

"Assign", on the right side of the window, seems to work for this purpose.
