Can someone please explain what I'm doing wrong, or what I may have missed in the Help file? I want to use virtual folders in the Hamburger menu but when I enter the paths using the pipe separator they become split in the menu and appear as separate items.
This is my virtual path:
vi:C:\Users\delee\Documents\test\Folder1|C:\Users\delee\Documents\test\Folder2
This is how it appears in the menu:

Re: Virtual folders in the Hamburger menu
Also, are these expected behaviours when a virtual folder is added to Favorite Folders?
1) It works as expected when clicked but the FF list only displays the first folder path. Manage Favorites displays all folder paths.
2) The FF list uses a folder icon instead of the virtual 'star' icon. Manage Favorites displays the virtual icon.

Hamburger: Not possible. Parser cannot handle semantic overload with concatenated VFOs.
FF: Yes, improvement is on the way.

Re: Virtual folders in the Hamburger menu
So have I misunderstood the Help file? "A good place to keep Virtual Folders handy is in the Catalog, in Locked Tabs, or in the Hamburger."
Fantastic! I've also noticed that the same behaviour occurs when adding a Quick Search (multiple paths) to FF - only the first path is displayed. Only mentioning it in case the "improvement" was only going to apply to Virtual Folders.FF: Yes, improvement is on the way.

Re: Virtual folders in the Hamburger menu
1. *concatenated* VFOs don't work in the Hamburger because of the double-meaning of the | separator. All other VFOs should work.
2. Do you have an example?

Re: Virtual folders in the Hamburger menu
Good news: The next beta should support concatenated VFOs in the Hamburger.
