drag&drop to open file location
Is there a way to drag a file & drop it into TC in order to open the directory & select the file dropped?
If you use TC as file manager you do not need it as you are already on the file folder !Amsis wrote:So, Mr. Ghisler, it would be possible to implement it?
For example, it could use the empty space of the folder tabs header, for the drop action.
You can implement it with AHK, AutoIt, Powerpro... a "drop zone" or in a context menu entry calling totalcmd.exe /o /s /L="%1"
you can add /T to open in a new tab.
One of the best free editor for context menu easy context menu for windows !
if you only need "Simple stuff", you can also make a link on your desktop using the following command :Amsis wrote:I'm "TC-centric" and the need borns just when I'm out from TC (i.e. in my IDE, in some image organizer, in the download list of the browser, etc)...
nsp, thanks for your tips: I'll have a look at AHK.
Code: Select all
<pathTo>\totalcmd.exe /o /s /l="%1"
From firefox, some addon let you add the context menu to file from download manager and you are back to context menu solution.
This is true for file panels.MVV wrote:TC does move or copy when you drop files - it is the most expected behaviour from file manager.
On the folder tab, in my opinion, could be a useful feature.
Thanks again, this is a good alternative for nownsp wrote: if you only need "Simple stuff", you can also make a link on your desktop using the following command :this wil act as you whish.Code: Select all
