branch view
Hello,
is it possible if I've opened multiple folders with branch view to remove any folder from the branch view view?
Not delete but just remove from the branch view selection?
Thanks for your help.

Re: branch view
I work a lot with branch view.
If one after the other could be closed /deselected a faster and clearer work would be possible.
This is really a feature that is missing.
Every day I get annoyed that I can not deselect individual folders from branch view.

Re: branch view
I see. But that would be a major feature. Hard to do. But yes, interesting as well.

Re: branch view
Not sure if this helps but I carefully read question and config-find files branch view then default branch view choose files only then unchecking multi branch view lists top folders worked great in windows 8 as I use this feature often. ver 20.00
Re: branch view
edit; no thats not what the post is about but thanks for your neat idea with displaying all folders and files in a tree and being able to choose which folders to remove. sorry, ignore my previous post- that wont work
Re: branch view
I just looked at this today again and it looks user friendly to me the way it is now. You can select which folders you want displayed in b view and then only those folders and the files in them will be listed. Config - find files and branch view - default branch view type to files only. I list line numbers and then just look at the folder path column to see where you are.
It doesnt matter if you have thousands of files listed as Xyplorer blasts through it.

Re: branch view
I work with this view.
If I have processed the files in a folder, I would like to close the corresponding folder. Then only the unprocessed folders would be open.
If you do not work with branch view, it is certainly sufficient for most users.
But for professional use, this additional option would be crucial and important.
Straight branch view differs from all other explorers.
I think branch view should be further developed.

Re: branch view
Ok, strongly agree that removing/closing those folders (good luck) would be genius.
Re: branch view
Almost two years have passed. Is there any news yet? Or can nobody do that?
Re: branch view
I am surprised that nobody has thought of paperfolders.
I wrote this last night.
Only drawback - you have to remove files in folder as well as folder.
I've put in "remove" to show that when removing items you do need to see warning/note to be safe.
1st 3 lines and last line commented out may be useful if you want to have instant return of removed files/folders.
To return just left click on ribbon @ paper: > FLATtest.pf .
note. ".pf" I found useful with highend's portable file association
I wrote this last night.
Code: Select all
"create paperfolder"
// if(exists("<xypaper>\FLATtest.pf.txt")==1){
// attrstamp("r", 4, "<xypaper>\FLATtest.pf.txt"); // removes "readonly"
// }
$Items= get ( "SelectedItemsPathNames", ";");
if( $Items==""){$Items = <curpath>;}
goto "$Items\? /flat"; // creates Branch View list
sortby "Path", a; // sorts by path
sel a; //selects all
$SelectedItems = get( "SelectedItemsPathNames", <crlf>); // gets all paths & names
paperfolder ("paper:FLATtest.pf", $SelectedItems, <crlf>); // creates & opens paperfolder
sortby "Path", a; // sorts by path
// attrstamp("r", 1, "<xypaper>\FLATtest.pf.txt"); // sets "readonly"
"remove selected from open paperfolder" #776;

Re: branch view
Hello, that's really great. First of all thank you. I noticed that when I rename a file it is immediately thrown out of the paper folder. Can that be prevented?
Re: branch view
Eventually by setting this tweak (I didn't test it!):

Re: branch view
Another question. Is it possible to get the indented view like in Branchview. For a better overview. And what does the script look like if I don't have to confirm the removal. So without warning.

Isn't optimal. The file is no longer removed, which is good. But the change (name change) should also be displayed in the paper folder.

Re: branch view
I'm afraid at the moment there is no indenting (I wonder how easy would it be to code).
As for the warning there is a tweak. I've tried it but didn't seem to have any effect.
