Persistent state for "Combined" Catalogs

Post by Filehero »

Hi Don,

my main Catalog is just a bunch of combined catalogs*. The major one amongst the imported is my Favorites Catalog. Unfortunately, upon every single XY restart all imported catalogs are collapsed, but I'd like to have the Favorites (or any other one) always opened. Could you add support for that?


Thanks,
Filehero

*: One could name it a paper catalog ...

The catalogload command has a e (expand) switch which will expand the included catalog!
Example:

Code: Select all

catalogload "data.dat", "ie";
includes and expandes the data.dat catalog.

Hi sinilill,

thanks for the tipp (which I know but will surely of help to others). :)

However, this doesn't render my wish - save state within XY's settings - obsolete.
