Tree File Browser
 |
A tree file browser has much the same function as a file browser: to browse directories, select files, filter and initiate file operations. However, a tree file browser also allows for expanding and showing sub directories and all their files in the same window. Most commands that work in File Browsers will also work here. A Tree File Browser can also be one in a pair of partner browsers, where the Tab key swaps between them. Another useful function is to browse a the directory under the cursor in the partner browser. To do this, press Shift-Tab. There are a couple of commands that are unique to the Tree File browser: * Zoom in folder – This changes the root of the tree so you will only browse the current folder and below. Keyboard shortcut: Enter. * Zoom out folder – This does the opposite, after having focused on a child directory, go back to the previous, higher root. Keyboard shortcut: Backspace. |
