Directory Hotlist: mouse scrolling on a long list

Post by *cfsamuel »

Currently, if the Directory Hotlist is longer than the screen height, it requires to click the "down arrow" for the list below. It would be great if scrolling the mouse for the list up and down could be implemented. Thanks.

That's already working here, without any special software or TC functions.
The mouse scrolls any window in any program the cursor is pointing to, including the TC history.
Time to change your mouse driver.
Windows 11 Home x64 Version 23H2 (OS Build 22631.3527)
TC 11.03 x64 / x86

cfsamuel is talking about the directory hotlist (bookmarks), not about the history.

The directory hotlist is a regular Windows popup menu, that's why it is behaving that way. Unfortunately popup menus do not support the mouse wheel.

Thanks for response. If it can be changed to enable mouse scrolling, it would be great as the Hotllist is quite a useful shortcut to directories.

TC x32 or x64?
This solution for TC x32 (without the 3rd point), if you will.

I have more than 1200 entries (folders, scripts, apps, ... just like in the starter menu) organized in the hotlist and I do not need to scroll, because I have all entries in subfolders with depth up to 5,6... A perfect solution, better than starter menu, because it's dynamic).
Maybe this (organizing it in subfolders) is a solution also for you.
