Activate folder of current file automatically

Post by enix »

When i swap files using Ctrl+Tab, I want the activate folder of current file (in File Explorer) to swap also automatically.

Any hints?

Thank you. :roll:

Thank you Aivars for your prompt response.
But insn't there a way to make this automatically, without the need to push that button every time?

Thank you.

Not really. I can add a request to suggestions list for the next version.

Are you sure such functionality wouldn't get annoying after a while (file explorer changing the active folder all the time, every time tab is switched)?

I would love that, but here I speak only on my behalf. I don't know what the rest think about this.
It would also be very cool if it will highlight/select the current file in the folder, so you know which file you are editing.
Why would i love this feature, because I work on web application that have same file names but in different folders (themes like).

Have a great day!

What does the Activate folder button do?
I could not find it in the help.

Also, is there a way to have more than one file explore tab. I would like to have at least 2 for switching between, like I did with HomeSite Pro.

Thanks
