EFU Tree Viewer

Post by montonero »

In case if anyone is interested in a standalone viewer of .efu files as a tree - I wrote a simplistic app for this purpose.
You can get it here: https://github.com/montoner0/EfuTreeView

Thanks, I'll try it out..matter of interest, are you developing the MPC-HC fork? I'm using MPC-BE at the moment but there are some things I prefer in MPC-HC and vice-versa.

Also, I came across this recently:
https://github.com/zybexXL/EFUtool

It doesn't seem to be in development any more and I doubt it will work with 1.5

Stamimail, out of interest, I use snap2html quite a lot, but I found that after version 2 it wasn't indexing a large number of files and folders.

I implemented a single feature a long time ago. No more worked on it since then.

Yeah, I've seen this one, but I think my tool could be handy for someone too.

Nice!

Suggestion: add the name (+path) of the opened efu file to the window title bar/caption.

Thanks!
That was my first thought when I've looked at the screenshot before releasing. Will add in a next release, I guess.

@montonero
What is the goal?

Browse For Folder - Navigation by clicks/arrows

QTAddressBar - Navigation by hovering

Exactly! I thought it's clear from the description.

I won't go deeper with this. I think I'm missing something. Never mind.

Everything 1.5 with View=>Folders enabled does the same thing

I've just noticed that Everything has the same trick (when you RightClick on a result item), but while the QTAddressBar navigation direction is to the descendants, the Everything navigation direction is to to the parents.

RightClick on a folder, I don't see yet the context menu like when RightClick on a result item.
Also, when you click on a folder, it opens its items on the results pane. It's like "open this folder in Everything". Can we have "open this folder in Everything" when RightClick on a folder in the result pane?

What do you mean,it works perfectly fine here
When I right click on anything(files or folder)even if the file\folder don't exist anymore,I still get the exact same menus as if i run Everything(not a filelist)

I don't talking about filelists.
I made a comparison between the context menu of Folders pane (View > Folders), and the context menu of Results pane.

I see Everything is letting multiple selection in the Folders pane by Ctrl+Click.
This is wonderful, but I also found a downside: when you press [-] to collapse, the selection is not kept.

Anyway, IMHO it's better to do with checkboxes. See the left pane:
