Same content in both panels with one click?

Post by AfriCola »

It should be pretty simple, but I just can't find it.

How can I align the content of my inactive panel to the active one with just one click?

Are you talking about syncing?
Menu - Panes - Sync Folders...

With one click only? Look at the documentation for the scripting command sync...

no, I don't mean synchronizing files or folders.

I also use the Speedcommander and there is a button where I can adjust the content of the inactive panel to the active one with just one click.

Example

Active first panel shows "H:\Emails".

Inactive 2nd panel shows "G:\Backup\PC\Scans\2011-04-30".

after a click on the button

-> now both panels show "H:\Emails".

Create e.g. a user button and use this script:

Code: Select all

    $aPane = <curpath>;
    focus "PI";
    goto $aPane;
    focus "PI";

This is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks a lot!

At least I wasn't blind, since there doesn't seem to be a ready-made function for this.

I also miss a simple default shortcut for making the active and inactive path the same.
Such a function is available in most other file managers.
There should not be a script necessary for this.

As jupe said: Panes | Go Here in Other Pane

Assign a key to it. What's the problem?
