Bookmark Open Folder Path

[IsJohnDoe]

I made some folder paths as bookmarks. The desire is to open the bookmark and the Everything folder tree pane will go to that folder. The same thing as "explore with everything". But it doesn't do that. It just puts the path in the search field. Could you give an option with the bookmarks to tell the folder tree to open at the path location, with or without putting the path in the search field (user choice), please.

2 examples:

Code: Select all

/explore "c:\program files (x86)\"  /explore-subfolders
/explore "c:\program files (x86)\"  /no-explore-subfolders

/explore

/explore

Ok, that's good thanks.
So I would want to click my bookmark and the folder tree would open to there, but also the cursor focus would snap to the search box, and all highlighted, as if I clicked on it with my mouse.
There is the search focus hotkey, but that won't work as a second step with my bookmark.
There is the macro section in the bookmarks, but I'm not getting that to work either. ?

You can "chain" multiple search commands.
The second command you are looking for is

/focus-search

After the first line (/explore "c:\program files (x86)\" /explore-subfolders), press 'ALT + ENTER' for a new line and type or paste

Code: Select all

/focus-search

Perfect, thanks!

Now the only thing is how to get the folder tree to follow, collapsing all other folders and opening the one with the bookmark.

I have no idea how to accomplish that in Everything.

Now the only thing is how to get the folder tree to follow, collapsing all other folders and opening the one with the bookmark.

Everything 1.5.0.1406a makes this possible with a command to collapse all from the root.

In this version, please try the following bookmark search:

Code: Select all

/comment 40414 is UI_ID_FOLDERS_SIDEBAR_ROOT_COLLAPSE_ALL
/command 40414 
/explore "c:\program files (x86)\"  
/explore-subfolders
/focus-search

/explore will also now expand the root if collapsed.

Hi, didn't know you had responded.
I have the beta version now. Tried out your code and it didn't work. Just defaults to the all-collapsed default tree.

Sorry, there's no

/explore-subfolders

switch, it's a separate command.

Please try the following bookmark search:

Code: Select all

/comment 40414 is UI_ID_FOLDERS_SIDEBAR_ROOT_COLLAPSE_ALL
/command 40414 
/explore "c:\program files (x86)\"  
/explore-subfolders

Ok that works, thanks.
How to make sure clicking the bookmark clears out the search field so that the results don't hide anything that's not in the field, due to being empty?

Please add:

/set-search

Please try the following bookmark search:

Code: Select all

/comment 40414 is UI_ID_FOLDERS_SIDEBAR_ROOT_COLLAPSE_ALL
/command 40414 
/explore "c:\program files (x86)\"  
/explore-subfolders
/set-search
/focus-search

/set-search

Perfect, thanks.
