Expand/Collapse Folder in the Search Pane

Post by peachfuzz »

Just started using Everything, so I might have jumped the gun here and I apologize if this option is already available. However, I looked and I can't find it. So if it is available, let me know or, otherwise, please consider adding to your next release.

Basically I would like to be able to expand the folder to see what's inside instead of having to double click to open the ACTUAL FOLDER. I would personally like to see the folder within the search pane expand to list the contents underneath (eg. populate files).

Hope that all made sense. Thanks.

I'm exploring an option to show a tree view pane on the left, selecting a folder in this view will show file/folder results in this folder (with subfolders optional)

I'll consider showing a +/- in the immediate result list to expand folders.
Thanks for the suggestion.

I was actually searching for the opposite:

being able to click on a result and have a tree view or preview pane to show the content of the folder. It would save so many "double click, explorer opens, check content, close window, go back to Everything, repeat"

Thanks for considering.
