Hide unavailable Catalog-Items

I have a MPXS now (=mostly portable XYplorer-Setup

), but some Catalog-Items point to folders not available on my tablet, so it would be nice if they could be (automagically) hidden. Any chance to do so???

Just load catalogs depending on device?

Hmm, I'd rather have ONE Catalog - it is much easier than having two manage more of them, and most items apply to all installs . Just these few @*#-items disturb the otherwise great feeling ;-)

The SC catalogload allows to have a "master" catalog and add / remove additional ones when necessary. Time to script!

Ok, will try.
So I'd need a sequence of catalogload-commands, right? Quickly browsed through the list and did not see anything that would enable me to loop through a catalog's items - or is there a construct for that? (Idea being that I could then check for valid items and not add non-existent items...)

You create catalogs and join them to your master catalog with a script. E.g. a catalog with drives / folders that are different on each installation
