Keyboard shortcut to Jump to Next folder

[DarKHawK]

Hi,

Is there any hidden to jump to the next inline folder?

Thanks.

You mean from anything that's currently selected (e.g. a file) or in e.g. a manual sorted list from:

afolder
a.txt
bfolder
c.txt

directly from afolder to bfolder?

I'm not aware of something preexisting but you could use a UDC and assign it a keyboard shortcut and use a script:

Code: Select all

    $preMatch = ""; $postMatch = ""; $items = listpane(); $curPos = get("FocusedPos");
    while ($i++ < gettoken($items, "count", "|")) {
        $item = gettoken($items, $i, "|");
        if (exists($item) != 2 ) { continue; }
        if ($i > $curPos) { $postMatch = $item; break; }
        if ($preMatch) { continue; }
        if ($i <= $curPos) { $preMatch = $item; }
    }
    selectitems ($postMatch) ? $postMatch : (($preMatch) ? $preMatch : <curitem>);

Thank you for your reply.

I didn't mean it like that. For that I would use the arrow keys.

I mean if I'm currently in a folder which contains files.
I want to jump directly to the next folder and open it.

mainfolder
subfolder1
subfolder2
subfolder3

If I'm current in subfolder2 viewing those files, I want to jump directly to subfolder3.

Thanks again.

This one doesn't contain the logic to jump back to a folder that's above the one you're currently in...

Code: Select all

    $parentFolders = listfolder(regexreplace(<curpath>, "^(.*)(\\.*)", "$1"), , 2);
    $curPos = gettokenindex(<curpath>, $parentFolders, , "");
    $nextFolder = "";
    while ($curPos++ < gettoken($parentFolders, "count", "|")) {
        $item = gettoken($parentFolders, $curPos, "|");
        if (exists($item) == 2 ) { $nextFolder = $item; break; }
    }
    if ($nextFolder) { goto $nextFolder; }

This script jumps to first subfolder in the current main folder.

mainfolder
---subfolder1
---subfolder2
---subfolder3
---subfolder4
---subfolder5
---subfolder6

If I'm in subfolder 2-6 and I run the script I jump to subfolder1
What I need is that If I'm in subfolder2 for example and ran the script I would jump to subfolder3, and then subfolder4 and so on.

Correct me if I'm wrong, User > Manage Commands > Run Script > New > and past the script in the script edit window!

Not for me.

If I'm in subfolder1 and run the script it jumps to subfolder2, etc. When in subfolder6 it stays there ($nextFolder is empty -> No jump)

I found what's wrong.
If the root folder had "#" in it I get that strange behavior I described earlier.

#newfolder
--1
--2
--3
--4

Jumping from 2 to 3 makes a jump back 1. If I removed the "#" from the newfolder the script works fine.
Also happens with the next scinario when the "#" is a middle folder and not the root.

newfolder
--#
----1
----2
----3

I usually use the "#" a lot to rename my folders I want to keep near the top.
If there is no solution for it I can switch to any other character.
I'm very grateful either way.
Thank you.

Change:

Code: Select all

$curPos = gettokenindex(<curpath>, $parentFolders);

to

Code: Select all

$curPos = gettokenindex(<curpath>, $parentFolders, , "");

I've edited the script posted above to reflect this change...
