Anyone know if there is a command to make the other pane show the current pane's folder?

Did you even look at the "Panes" menu before you posted this? :evil:
Please look before you write!

Ok, so there isn't a way to move/copy all the tabs to the other pane but the current tab can be done so quite easily.

i'm hoping there is a way to do similar without creating a new tab in the other pane. i just want the folder in the other pane to switch to viewing the folder in my current pane without creating a new tab. is there a command that can do this?

i'm also looking for a command that can swap the 2 active folders between the panes...

There's a command for vice versa:
CKS / Miscellaneous / List / Go to Other Location
Since its in the "Miscellaneous" category it is not reachable via the main menu. You need to apply a KS to it, or use it in a script (as #1070;).

No, but you can drag tabs across panes, so that's easily done.

ok ill just do that for now. but it would be nice to see a "swap panes" command to make it quicker.

If all you want is to swap the current folder of both panes, just assign this script to whatever you want :

Code: Select all

 $this = <get path>; $that = <get path i>; goto $that; focus pi; goto $this; focus pi;
Should do the trick.

that makes the current pane folder show the other pane folder. is there a way to switch this behavior? to make the other pane folder show the current pane folder?

Yes, there's a command in CKS/Miscellaneous / List / Go to Other Location. Just apply a KS or create a user button for it (#1070;).

How would you call it?
