File Tree Behaviour

[WRM]

I am a recent convert to XYPLorer and like what I have seen so far. I have a number of frequently used folders set up as favourite links and like how they can be accessed with a click on empty space. What I do not like is the way that clicking on such a link expands the file tree to that location. Can that behaviour be switched off?

Welcome!
You might want to look into Mini Tree.

Not sure Mini Tree helps. It has the same behaviour as the normal tree - i.e. when I click on a favourite folder it expands to that folder, as well as opening the location in the relevant pane. After navigating to a few favourites the tree expands significantly. What I want to be able to do is click on a favourite, have that open in the relevant pane, but leave the tree as it was.

Use a locked mini tree, no automatic expansion will happen. Never^^

That sounds promising - how do I lock it - I can see no reference in the help files?

Menu - Tools - Customize Tree - Lock Tree?

Thanks - now works exactly as I wanted. Thanks all for your help.
