Date/Time of Creation

The "Date/Time of Creation" rule contains the time and date that the file was created.

This piece of information is often unknown to the user. You can use the 'Drag Hinting' feature to extract the creation date information from a file. If you open the Finder window and view the files in a column view, you will notice that once your file is selected the creation date is provided to you in the rightmost panel.

To get a larger range of dates, you may use the selections given to you by the pop-up menu. There are several choices from which to choose.

Tip: ChronoSync date fields take advantage of natural language strings. This means that you can use a handful of strings to specify a date. For example, putting the word 'yesterday' in the text field will automatically calculate and display yesterday's date. Another example is 'last Tuesday'. The text field will update the date to display last Tuesday's date. Experiment with this field to see what strings you can get away with.
