[Bug] Can't open tab

Post by *latus »

I am working with TC 7.02a. With older versions I could always open a tab.
As strange as it sounds regardless wether I use the menu or CTRL-T always the multi-rename tool is started. CTRL-M starts it as well thus it is not just switched.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated as I am a great fan of tabs.

Thanks a lot!

:) Hello !

• The Tutorial at Configuration >> Options >> Folder Tabs >>
[×] Show tab header also when there is only one tab wrote :
When the folder-tabs are quite disabled by cm_VisDirTabs, Ctrl+T recovers its old assignment : it opens the Multi Rename Tool !
•So, please, check your settings there…
…as I am a great fan of tabs…

The setting which activates folder tabs or deactivates them is to be found here:

Configuration => Options => Layout => [X] Show Folder Tabs.
If you untick this, then Ctrl+T will open the multirename tool.

The settings under "Configuration" => "Options" => "Folder Tabs" will only have any effect if you enable the general setting shown above.

And yes, I have grown wiser and am a dedicated "folder tab" user now. :wink:

2latus: CTRL-M is the default key for the Multirename Tool.
CTRL-T is the default key for a new Tab.

CTRL-T was the key for the Multirename Tool in older versions of TC, but changed to CTRL-M with TC 6.0.

You may have defined your own shortcut ...

Please check your settings at "Configuration - Options - Misc"
At "Redefine Hotkeys" select the CTRL option and select the "T" key.
=> The command entry should read "Default command (no remapping)
If not, just delete the displayed entry and press Apply button to restore the default.

Hello *:

Been away for a little while.
Thanks to your help it works again. It was the missing Checkbox [X] on show folder tabs.

Cheers
