how to create/remove Tabs on both panels at the same time?

Post by *gawker »

Ctrl + T: Open new tabs at the both panels
Ctrl + W: Remove tabs at the both panels
Ctrl + Tab: Switch tabs at the both panels

1. You can change folder in single tab without affecting corresponding tab in the target panel.
2. when you close the tab in left panel, you close the corresponding in the right panel, and vice versa.

Demonstration:

Code: Select all

Left Panel       |         Right Panel 
A | B | C        |         A | B | C
Where A B C is tab, and can have different folder, but when you operate on one tab, you operate the corresponding also.
(the operation is remove, create, switch)

-- Does this feature support?

Take a look into the TOTALCMD.INC (pure text file) for a list of TC internal commands.

TOTALCMD.INC
cm_OpenNewTab=3001;Open new tab
cm_FocusTrg=4006;Focus on target file list






That commands can be used as Button commando, also several cmds in a row:

CMD=cm_OpenNewTab,cm_FocusTrg,cm_OpenNewTab,cm_FocusTrg
PARA=
Start=
Icon=wcmicons.dll
Tooltip=Open Tabs in both panels







Instead of an button you also can create a "user defined command" (usercmd.ini)
where you are able to assign a keyboard shortcut to, e.g.: Ctrl+T

Thanks for your detailed reply, lots of help :)
Is there any implementation for mouse left-single-click to switch tab both panels:?

you mean: "clicking e.g. on second tab from left on source panel will also activate second tab from left(*) on target panel" ?

* or any kind related


I am afraid this isn't possible ... or I have no idea.

But maybe you're interested on another feature?
Using the "directory menu" (CTRL+D > Configure... > read Help) allows to store favorite paths and also to set the wanted target too.
So calling a stored path will open set target too.

You get my point, but i would rather use multiple times of keyboard-switch-tab operation if mouse-switch-tab implementation impossible and cause my folder/paths change often, the other save-favorites feature dont help, thx :)
