CTRL+[SHIFT]+B and SELECTION

[guillaume0078]

Hello,

Today, when use use CTRL+[SHIFT]+B, TC doesn't take care of what items are selected.
it would be useful that TC lists subfiles & subforder of only the directories that are selected (if any). If no selection, same behaviour as today.

Thanks.

Support, this would be a useful feature.

I sometimes miss this, too, and use cm_ShowOnlySelected after Ctrl+B for a manual workaround.

I miss such option sometimes too.
My workaround: I have a search saved as "branchview2" with the option attributes > directory (unchecked)
I call to the command with "LOADSEARCH branchview2", later I add to listbox the search results.

Also, a similar option that I miss, is: show the selected directories/files in a parent folder. (Yes, for those purposes there are wfx plugins like temporary panel, File Redirector, etc.) But, this is another history.

I suggested that feature a long time ago.
Even Christian said he will try to implement it.

How this works for you?
On Ctrl+B I always get listed whole tree, regardless of what is selected or displayed

My workaround is to use cm_ShowOnlySelected after Ctrl+B.
I use a custom column view with [=tc.path] as a column and sort the list using this column.
Then I can mark all files inside these dirs (Shift+PgDn or similar) and use cm_ShowOnlySelected to hide the others.

Not comfortable, but working...

Quite a workaround

Hey there buddies. Sorry for kicking the skeleton, but I'd still need this feature, 12 years later. Is it implemented somehow? Selecting few folders and hitting ctrl + b doesn't do the trick 4 me

Have you tried Ctrl+Shift+B like the OP was suggesting?

More than a decade ago:

22.01.10 Added: New internal commands cm_LeftDirBranchSel and cm_RightDirBranchSel activate branch view of selected files/folders in left/right panel

06.12.09 Added: Ctrl+Shift+B and cm_DirBranchSel shows branch view of only the selected dirs+files (or the one under the cursor if nothing selected)
