How to create a middle toolbar?

[jupe]

add a "This Computer" button to the xyployer toolbar so that it is only a single click to focus on the entire computer for a search?

You can add the built in "This PC" button to the toolbar, but that would require 2 clicks, or alternatively if you definitely only want it to function with 1 click you can type snippet; in the XY address bar and then paste the following code block into the window that pops up, it will add a new button to the far right of your toolbar, you can move it afterwards if necessary by right clicking it and selecting Customize Toolbar.

Code: Select all

Snip: CTB 1

Thank you, that worked! How do I up vote your reply or credit you some how?

[admin]

LOL. The solution came 18 minutes after your question. And your Thank You came 2.5 years after that. Do you work somewhere far from this solar system?

Oh, planet Earth! By chance that's where I work as well.

As a matter of fact, a center bar is an incredible thing. I am stating this as a client of Directory Opus. You can put all the oftentimes utilized document tasks alternate routes there (duplicate, move, erase, rename, and so on.), the alternate way for "duplicate envelope address to clipboard", just as the bolts for organizer route. Right now I need to move the cursor as far as possible up and left to get to those bolts (return, go up in the organizer tree) and it isn't advantageous.

XY has the Catalog. It's vertical as well and you can narrow it down to a mere bar.

damn, however obvious this may be, you should really add this with example pictures to some hints - never thought about Catalog as a thin vertical toolbar, and surely there are people who may find this idea useful.

I just added something you will like:

Code: Select all

    + Catalog: Now you can easily add toolbar buttons with their icons, 
      captions, and functionality to the Catalog. Simply add the button key 
      prefixed by ":" to the Location field of the Catalog item. Everything else 
      can be left empty and at the default values.
      Examples:
        Location: :back
        Location: :fore
        Location: :dice
      Tip: A quick way to find out the button keys is to mouse-over a toolbar 
      button while holding CTRL. The tooltip will show "button: <key>".

nice addition!

Just to illustrate how easy it is now to add a button to the catalog, e.g. the Up button:

Seems so very simple but must be missing the obvious. Cannot get it to work on v21.10.

[highend]

Because it's in v21.10.0005?

There's many a slip 'twixt the cup and the lip

As stated may be missing the obvious. But the post ought to point out it was not extant.

[admin]

Hm, not much feedback here. I found the Toolbar-in-Catalog or Catalog-as-Toolbar feature quite interesting. OK, I will make it better...

But can the catalogue be positioned between two vertically split panes (no tree)? That is the ideal position (and where I have it) for a vertical toolbar.
