How to bookmark and list multiple paths
Hi everyone
I am just a hobby user, please be 'tender'
I'd like to add multiple folders from different paths to one 'bookmark' to be able to list them in one of the panes simultaneously (like with Directory Hotlist just not one path/bookmark but selected multiple folders from multiple paths).
Any idea, please?

with one click.
There is no other technical way to set more than one path in one tab at a time.

Hi and welcome, mihaaly.
For what do you need this?
Maybe there are other ways?
For example, you can perform a search, utilize [Feed to listbox], and have all in one pane.
Such Search can be saved and reused from a button command.
Or you can utilize "Branch view" from menu to see all sub folders in one long list.

Re: How to bookmark and list multiple paths
If you want you can use virtual panel to add multiple target folder/file into a virtual one if you setup a persistent file.mihaaly wrote:Hi everyone

You can manage a bookmark tree easily but you will not have the ability to copy to all folder at one time.

mihaaly: You may create a folder and put junctions to your preferred folders into it.
It is easy to do.
The most simple tool is NTFS Links
Another one is NTLinks Maker (more flexible, but more complex)

You mean this one nsp?

It does not work for me: folders 'copied' to the virtual panel do not reflect changes in the folder e.g. increased size....
Re: How to bookmark and list multiple paths
If you just copy a folder to a virtual folder using F5, you will get a copy of the current folder and not a link.mihaaly wrote:nsp wrote:...

You need to use command like <add <myVirtual Name> <RealPath>
You can maintain list inside a file and add it using a command like <put /ld <myVirtual Name> <FolderListFile>
You can use a button associated to a user command that call vpbatch or give look to the virtualpanel.bar

Re: How to bookmark and list multiple paths
The provided command (<add <myVirtual Name>...) does not work it says at least one parameter needed...nsp wrote:If you just copy a folder to a virtual folder using F5, you will get a copy of the current folder and not a link.mihaaly wrote:nsp wrote:...

But how do I install the plugin (NTLinksMaker for instance), I copied it to tc plugin folder, made a link to the exe file in windows Startup... it only works if one of my current panes cointains the NTLinksMaker.exe file?

It is not a plugin, but a program for use with TC.But how do I install the plugin (NTLinksMaker for instance), I copied it to tc plugin folder
For using the program, just create a button with the following:
Code: Select all
command: YourPathTo\NTLinksMaker.exe
parameters: /q- /b /r="%P" "@%WL" "%T"
2. At the left panel select you first preferred folder(s)
3. Click on the above created button
=> a dialog appears telling you which junction will be created
4. click OK
=> junction of selected folder(s) of left panel are created at right panel
Repeat steps 2-4 with all other preferred folders until all junctions are created at right panel.

For using the program, just create a button with the following:1. At the right panel open your destination folder where all the links should be put.Code: Select all

Re: How to bookmark and list multiple paths
You have to enter this command inside the command line when VirtualPanel tab have focus.mihaaly wrote: The provided command (<add <myVirtual Name>...) does not work it says at least one parameter needed...
Code: Select all
<add "adb on C Drive" C:\adb
