Setting up the catalog

Post by alexc »

Hello

I'm a new user and really digging XYplorer. I've been trying to find some comprehensive info on how to setup the catalog, specifically how to do the "open with" stuff, or navigate between catalogs etc..
Has anybody made good tutorials about this? The documentation doesn't really give any step by step instructions.

Thanks!

specifically how to do the "open with" stuff
Right click inside the empty catalog, "Add New Category..."
Right click the newly created category, "Add New Item Here..."
Switch the "Action on click" to "Open selected List item(s) with Application"
Click on the "..." right beside the upper "Application" field and choose the program you need
Done
navigate between catalogs
Quoting from the help file...
You can switch catalogs on the fly and manage any number of Catalog resources. You find the usual commands in the right-click menu of any Catalog Category and of an empty Catalog in the submenu
