Setup a custom column with two parent dirs and filename?

As far as I know I can setup/define my own custom columns.

How can I setup a column which contains the filename and exactly the two parent dir name?

Example the song with the absolute path

D:\aaaa\bbbb\cccc\dddd\mysong123.mp3

should contain in the custom column the text value

cccc\dddd\mysong123.mp3

How can I define the corresponding pattern?

You should use the $directory_path function.
Either something like:

Code: [Select]
$directory(%path%,3)\$directory(%path%,2)\$directory(%path%)


or if the first part of the whole path is always the same you can work it out with other string functions, something like

Code: [Select]
$right($directory_path(%path%),$len('D:\aaaa\bbbb\'))
