Show Subfolder as a Root Folder

Is it possible to show a sub-folder as a root folder, so that when it is located several folders deep, the autoexpand doesn't open up a ton of sub-folders?

Lock your tree?

If those "ton of sub-folders" are siblings you don't need to see right now, try the Mini Tree.

Sorry, I don't think I've stated what I desire clearly.
I have a tree: P:\Folder 1\Sub-Folder 1\Sub-Folder 2\Sub-Folder 3\Sub-Folder 4
I would like Sub-Folder 4 to show up in the tree as if it were a primary drive. Is this possible. Catalogs gets close, but not exactly what I'm looking for.

Drag it into the "Rapid Access" node. That's the "highest" kind of hierarchy you can currently get for this kind of stuff

Fantastic. I've been wanting those for a while, just haven't asked. Fabulous.
Thanks.

Ok....almost great. One problem. I need the address bar to still show the original address. I copy the address bar all day long, and the RA cuts off the front of the path. Is there an option or workaround?

Right click the folder icon in the address bar and use the Copy Path / Copy Real Path from there?
Use a script and put it on a keyboard shortcut?
Copy it from the breadcrumb bar?

Or right-click the path icon in the address bar and check "Show Real Path".

How can I create a custom button to copy real path without having to right click?

Won't work as expected if a file/folder is selected.
You should add in Custom Event Actions: Middle-click on white in breadcrumb bar>Copy Real Path

You're right. Something basic like "Copy Current Path" is strangely missing.

I'll add it to the next beta.
