Allow to use all favorite folders as category

#1 Post by HansS » 08.02.2014, 12:29

I mainly organize the favorites like the file system to allow fast and easy access to most often used folders. In almost all cases the category itself is a folder which I also need as favorite, e.g.

[D:\] (caterory)
..D:\ (folder D:\)
..[INSTALL] category
....INSTALL (folder D:\INSTALL)
....[Mozilla] (category)
......Mozilla (folder D:\INSTALL\Mozilla)
......Firefox (folder D:\INSTALL\Mozilla\Firefox)

So in most cases I need two entries for the same thing, and additional clicks to open such folders (e.g. I must fist open the [INSTALL] category then the INSTALL folder - both on same level are not logical for me).

With possibility to use any folder also as favorites (what e.g. CubicExplorer supports), the same structure would be much better:

D:\
..INSTALL
....Mozilla
......Firefox

When a folder is defined as a Favorite it would be nice to have possibility to browse into using the arrow keys inside of the favorite view and then press enter to get to the desired folder.

Example:
I have a favorite entry set to the folder "Test" with following structure.
Test
..Folder1
....Subfolder1
....Subfolder2
..Folder2
....Subfolder3
....Subfolder4

I'd like to press Alt+G,T, Right,Down,Down, Enter to get inside of Subfolder1

If you mean with Alt+G the favorite folder tree (default Alt+F) than it works for:
Alt+F, Shift+Tab, T, Right,Down,Down, Enter.

Sorry I provided the wrong key sequence. No my intention is not to go into Favorite Tree View.
I meant
1. Alt+Up - Activate "Favorite folders" "
2. T - Go to the Test folder, which is saved as favorite
3. Right - navigate into Test-folder -> the list of the sub-folders would appear here and Folder1 gets selected - This is what I would like to be implemented
4. Down - Navigate to Folder2
5. Right - Navigate into Folder2, Subfolder1 gets selected
6. Enter - open Subfolder1 in the active panel.

My Request is, if a folder is saved as favorite, allow navigation to the subfolders of a folder from "Favorite folders" - view without needing to reflect the while folder structure in the favorites
