Hi

Don't think this is already possible...

Don't know if already asked but would be very welcome (with a center click on folder ?)

Thanks

To browse a folder in the inactive pane use Alt+Click in the Tree. To open a folder in a new tab in the inactive pane use Shift+Alt+Click.

What I would like to be able to, is to open a folder from a pane (1) into the other pane (2) (no Tree)

Thanks

Tried it but doesn't do what I would like...

I would like to double click (or a key stroke if not possible) on the Soul Show folder in pane 1 and I will see in Pane 2 what's inside this folder (pane 1 remain unchanged)

Moreover if it was possible to open automatically the second pane if it was not present when pushing the keystroke, it will be even better !

Thanks again for your help

I see. I made a note for DP 2.0.

This would be somewhat similar to the "Open in new window" on context menu that is typical in a web browser, and makes sense if you're wanting to keep the two folders in different panes instead of just diff tabs.

I don't use DP myself, but I'm guessing this can be done by a little script such as this:

Code: Select all

  $dest = <focitem>;
  focus pi;
  goto $dest;

I tried that script, jacky, and while it does work, it doesn't switch into DP mode if you're currently in SP mode, so the newly opened folder is not visible at same time as origin.

Ysl: Your image is loading very slowly or not at all here so not sure where you hosted image but it's not very reliable, at least not right now.
