I define a folder where I map the disks in. (e.g. C:\ALL_STUFF\) this folder will be hidden.
So every disk has a STUFF-folder so we create junctions D-STUFF, E-STUFF, ... into the C:\ALL_STUFF\-folder.
Now comes the tricky search part: (Not to forget, the search-tab will be renamed and locked)
We also need to enable this Tweak, so the search will go through the junctions:Find-Files tab wrote:Name & LocationMode: RegExpCode: Select all
[A-Z]\-STUFF(\\.*\\.*)?$
[x] invert
[x] Path
Location: C:\ALL_STUFF\
[x] Include subfolders
Size
[x] search for folders as well (shows me the size of each folder in the list)
Attributes
[x] Directory
Code: Select all
; Tweak: set to 1 to recurse Junctions on a File Find
FindFollowJunctions=1That was preparation, now comes the mysterium:
When I now open an item from the search-result I get a new tab that I instantly close returning therefore to the search-result will expand (and select) the C:\ALL_STUFF in my MiniTree, and additionally the C:\ALL_STUFF-folder is hidden and "Show Hidden Items" is turned off.
I found out that it does not appear with "Syncronize tree with search location" off.
Is it wanted behaviour that this feature bounds harder than "Lock Tree"?
That is on my config, I tried to reproduce it on a fresh installation, and I only performed the setting mentioned above...
With "Syncronize tree with search location" off, everthing is fine, but when it is turned on, the "Desktop" will be expanded and selected (default green) in the locked MiniTree, but only when its not allready expanded. (means: it will only be selected in the tree if it doesn't exists before)
Its quite mysterious enougth that a fresh install and my configuration behave different, related to the same issue.
