Summary0003424: Single UI for configuring file type associations and scanning(file monitor)
DescriptionThe Tools > Options > File types should communicate both:
-associated file types
-whether file types are scanned or not

This enables:
-similar items to be configured in a single place
-the Scan Folders dialog to be cleaned up

This should be done after a tree is created to configure file types in a common manner for both the installer and file associations options panel (0003090).

The panel would be very similar to the current panel except that there would be 2 parallel trees. Also, the select all/select none button could be removed due to the hierarchy.

Finally, the Scan Folders dialog would have a new 'File Types...' button that would be a shortcut to this config panel.
TagsNo tags attached.
Fixed in build
