This version (linked a few posts above) also supports W11 File Explorer tabs

Since the newly added options are so far the only ones for which there are no shortcuts (underscores) yet, I would like to suggest the following: Alt+N, N No folder numbering Alt+U, U Folder numbers with shortcuts 1-0 (10) Thanks for the suggestion, I forgot to add them (it was obviously already be...

2horst.epp
Added an option in settings dialog to de-/activate folder numbers

2tuska
The numbers 1 to 0 (for 10) will always execute ENTER if the option mentioned above is activated

Let's see if this quickfix solved the problem for you...
(The "0x" can now be omitted from color values, otherwise it will be truncated)

And how does it look with the original QuickSwitch 0.5 version? There was no color option in QuickSwitch 0.5 It looked like this Screenshot - 22.08.2022 , 20_14_19.png Thank you! Oh man, I think I've got it - Hex isn't Hex (kinda stupid mistake... :oops:) Interesting that it doesn't occur on every ...

Its the same here, only the divider lines are colored.
Looks like this:

And how does it look with the original QuickSwitch 0.5 version?

The result for "MenuBGColor" is the same with version 2022-08-21_QuickSwitch-0.5dw7 as before. Window " Quick Switch Menu ": Frame lines on the outside left and right and the dividing line are given the set color, however, the window is not filled with color how this is possible...

Further tests have shown the following: If I - press the button "OK" without changing anything or "Cancel" in "QuickSwitch Settings" then the "QuickSwitch Menu" appears again - change the color to MenuBGColor=0xC6E2FF press the button "OK" then the ...

2 horst.epp I've added "OK" and "Cancel" buttons to the GUI as you suggested. 2 tuska Please check if MenuBGColor is set correctly now. I've also added an option to the settings, that the menu should be opened again either when one is selecting an autoswitch option from the menu ...

tuska wrote: ↑Tue Aug 16, 2022 10:58 am What exactly does the option "Always open Menu" do? I don't notice any difference whether I tick the option or not.

If this option is enabled, the menu is displayed automatically after a file dialog has opened.
Otherwise one has to use Ctrl+Q to open it manually if needed.

2 tuska I would still remove the underscores in the "QuickSwitch Menu" as this can cause confusion. I can't remove the underscores, if you want to use the numers to navigate. They're activating the shortcut (in fact the hidden '&' before the letter/character that should be shown as und...

2 horst.epp In version dw6 the numbers in the menu doesn't work for me at all. Not with Alt and not without it. I personaly would remove that numbering and stay with version dw5 which works fine. Did you try with "AlwaysOpenMenu" enabled/disabled? On my system the shortcuts are always work...

2 DaWolfi It would sound very good, because I am a shortcut fan, but... After typing ALT... the QuickSwitch windows as shown by you are gone ... :? I am sorry if I have expressed myself in a misleading way. You must not type ALT when the menu is displayed. This is necessary only in the settings win...

Question: Can you automatically position the cursor on the top entry? :?: Then it would be possible to select the path with Ctrl+Q and <ENTER> in a dialoque. not done yet, seems to be not that easy... NotNull has already cut its teeth on this topic. :lol: But I thought I would ask you anyway, as it...

Not confirmed. QuickSwitch.ini [Menu] AlwaysUseMenu=Yes NrOfMRUFolders=5 AlwaysOpenMenu=0 [MenuEntries] AlwaysOpenMenu=1 NrOfMRUFolders=5 -> only manually changeable in 2022-08-15_QuickSwitch.0.5dw5 How could you change that? I assume that you have tested this? I forgot to reset the INI section &qu...

Works fine here but the More settings screen needs an ok or apply button. Currently one must enter a value and terminate it with enter to get the new value saved. We see on Tuska's post that he doesn't know this ;) Of course, sorry for that one. As you can see I'm a bit lazy about adding descriptio...

2 DaWolfi I am unsure about MenuBGColor -> QuickSwitch Menu . Is this what you have in mind for the background colour? (I have used the default values). ... frame on the left and right and the horizontal line is coloured ... Basically yes, but I don't know yet why the MenuBGColor only applies to th...

2 tuska Here we go: When I click on "More Settings..." I get the settings menu. If I click away this window and call up the settings menu immediately again, I get this error message: fixed Currently, another value can only be set manually , as the value '6' is not saved ... (Entered manual...

Thanks for the prompt help! Thank you for your excellent and accurate testing, I really appreciate this support!👍 Can you do me the favor of reviewing my latest changes as well? I've added a little GUI and moved "Debug this dialog" and "Always open menu" to this dialog. The Auto...

Sometimes after multiple(!) ALT+TAB the path is shown which had the focus before but not anymore. Please check. Thanks! I'll check and see if I can figure out why this is happening. (btw, just out of personal interest: how many tries do you usually need to hit the right folder? :D ) EDIT: Fortunate...

Hi, I would like to point out that I have the following problem with version QuickSwitch-0.5dw2 . Change to the desired directory in Total Commander (File manager) Press Alt+Tab to switch back to the FastStone Editor ( FastStone Capture ). Press Ctrl+S to save a .png file Cursor starts flickering (...

I've made some minor changes to be able to use Ctrl+J from "Move to" and "Copy to" folder dialogs.

Still have to look at this (will take a couple of weeks), but in the meantime, would you do me a favor? I wrote a little helper program that analyzes dialog windows (it is what I used to find a good algorithm for all dialogs up to this point). It would be very helpful if you could run this against ...

@notnull
Here is a customized version of JumpToFolder where I integrated my latest changes from QuickSwitch
(Added new types of file dialogs)

I might reach out to you regarding this, because that would mean JumpToFolder needs to be updated to support this type of dialogs too. (and I don't have access to these AutoDesk applications myself at the moment). Today I added the necessary code to JumpToFolder I tested it with different applicati...

You're welcome!

Nice enhancement. Thank you! The only thing I had to change was the logic to find JumpToFolder. How did you solve that? What I never would do is to hide the icon of QuickSwitch by default as this will confuse a lot of users. To be honest - I forgot to reacivate it before publishing... (Personally I...

(Please do not create a pull request as that would force me to figure out how git actually works...)

Hi guys, I am glad that I found this very helpful program, thanks a lot for developing and maintenance to everybody who is involved! I've made some changes and extensions for my requirements, and would like to make this available to anyone who may need it. What is the most appropriate way to do this...
