Relating the folder pane to the file pane

[sclg]

I'm sure I'm missing something obvious here...
Is it possible to lock the folder tree display on the left to the tab that is open?
Say I have five tabs, when I change to a different tab, it would be good if the file tree went to the state it was in when I was last on that tab.
As it is, it always stays the same in terms of which folders are expanded and which aren't.
Any ideas?

XY doesn't provide that feature, so maybe a script?

Ofc this requires the user to switch tabs through the script^^

This could get you started:

Code: Select all

    $ini     = "<xydata>\trees.ini";
    $tabs    = get("tabs");
    $abbrev  = "1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0,a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j,k,l,m,n,o,p,q,r,s,t,u,v,w,x,y,z";
    $tabList = "";
    while ($i++ < gettoken($tabs, "count", "|")) {
        $tabList = $tabList . gettoken($abbrev, $i, ",") . " - " . gettoken($tabs, $i, "|") . "|";
    }
    $tabIndex = regexreplace(popupmenu($tabList, , , , , 1), "^([a-z0-9] - )(.*)", "$2");
    $tabPath  = tab("get", "path", $tabIndex);
    if !(exists($ini)) { writefile($ini, , , "tu"); }
    setkey get("tree"), "tree", tab("get", "path"), $ini;
    seltab $tabIndex;
    $iniPaths = getsectionlist(, $ini);
    foreach($iniPath, $iniPaths, <crlf>) {
        if ($iniPath == $tabPath) {
            loadtree getkey("tree", $iniPath, $ini);
            break;
        }
    }

Thanks for the idea - obviously time to get to grip with scripts!
