Using Hot Paths
Hot Paths provide quick access to frequently visited directories. You can
define up to 30 Hot Paths. Each Hot Path has a friendly name and can point to
a local, network, or UNC path, an archive path, or a plugin file system path.
The first ten Hot Paths can be accessed with keyboard shortcuts.
To define a new Hot Path:
| Menu: | Open
Configuration/Hot Path dialog box. Select a Hot Path
position in the Defined Hot Paths list. Enter a name for the new Hot Path. In the Path text
box, type the path for the new Hot Path. Choose the OK button. |
| Shortcut key: | In the active panel, open the
directory you want to set as a Hot Path. Press Ctrl+Shift+number key, where the
number is 0 to 9. Or press Ctrl+Shift+= to add the current directory to Hot Paths.
This works only if a Hot Path position from 11 to 30 is free. |
| Mouse: | In the panel, open the directory you want to set
as a Hot Path. Right-click the current directory in the Directory Line and select
Assign Hot Path. Then choose the Hot Path position you want to assign it to. Or choose the
New Hot Path command to add the current directory to Hot Paths.
This works only if a Hot Path position from 11 to 30 is free. |
To access a defined Hot Path:
| Menu: | Open the Left or Right menu, select Go To,
and choose the Hot Path you want to use. |
| Change Drive Menu: | Defined Hot Paths are
listed in the Change Drive Menu. You
can choose which Hot Paths should be listed in the Change Drive
Menu (see Configuration/Hot Path). |
| Shortcut key: | Press Ctrl+number key, where the
number is 0 to 9 (or Shift+number key if the check box Use Shift+number for
go to Hot Path in Configuration/Panels
is selected), to change the current directory to the chosen Hot Path.
If you want to see the list of all defined Hot Paths, press Shift+F9. |
| Toolbar: | Choose the Go To Hot Path button (with drop-down
arrow) on the Top or Middle toolbar and choose the Hot Path you want to go to. |
