Add Favorite folders/files

Post by kiwichick »

Hi there, Am I missing something or is there really no way to add Favorite Folders and Files other than opening the Favorites List Management? Considering all the bells and whistles that XYplorer comes with, I would have thought I could at least right-click the Favorites toolbar buttons and "Add current folder/file to Favorites" or drag-n-drop onto the buttons. Or even an "Add to Favorites" option in the Context Menus/Folder Tree/File List. Is there a script I could use to do this? Cheers.

Favorites - Favorite Files - Toggle Favorite File
Favorites - Toggle Favorite Folder

And if you don't want to click, assign keyboard shortcuts to them (iirc the favorite folder has one by default (Ctrl + B)...

Oh boy do I feel dumb :oops: Thanks so much!!!! The wording (toggle) had me confused and I wasn't seeing the "set favorite" message in the status bar.

Don't worry about feeling dumb here! I've been using XY for 6+ yrs and it still happens sometimes to me that I can't quickly locate a given feature -- because there are SO many of them! :biggrin:
Still spending WAY TOO much time here! But it's such a pleasure helping XY be a treasure!
