To filter view of files

First of all, thank you for the effort you have made in developing this great component for joomla.
My question is this:
I usually use the way "add multiple files" adding the whole folder to download. In this folder I have not only files to download, I also have files i work but I don't want people see it. If I have to assign permission for every file it takes me a long time.
I know that you can filter the types of files that can be downloaded, but I would be interested in not only lock the download, but also I would like to prevent someone see them. Is there any way to do it?
Sorry for my english
Thank you.

Hi, in file edit in administration, you can set that such file will be not displayed - the parameter is: Display inaccessible file

Hi, Yes I know I can do this. But I would like for example filter all *.pdf or *.doc, when I add multiples files from the HDD. Something similar what phoca does with the function in Download Options: "File types disabled for download". In this case the user can't download what you filter but he can see the file (that's what i don't like). Could be something like: "File types disabled for view". I don't know if it's posible.
Thanks again.

Hi, for now there is no such option, so this needs to be customized directly in the code :idea:
