custom layouts : add "go to default path" in context-menu

#1 Post by kino » 31.03.2024, 16:51

Hello,

There's a neat "Go to locked path" contextual menu on tabs from custom layouts that allows getting back to the originally defined path from its definition within the custom layout -> wherever you go drilling from there, you can come back in a click or two.

Could you please extend this to "Go to the original path", be the tab defined as locked or not ?

Thanks

When the tab is not locked, what is the original path?

What if user opens a new Tab, starts in navigating in folder A, goes through, B, C and D, decided to lock D - and then in second step(s) goes to E, F and ends in G? The more folders users goes through in both steps the bigger the potential need for differentiating between original-original folder and originally locked one

In such a case, history can be used:
- hold Alt+Left to go to initial path
- click the History back sub-button and select initial path
- to go up to specific path, just click the path in the address bar
- to go to any subfolder, just right click the folder within the address bar and then to desired subfolder from the list

Anyway, when using "Go to locked path" or/and selecting specific path from History, order of paths in history is changed, probably it's not a bug, because the order is by last used paths.

When using just main History buttons or shortcuts Alt+Left, Alt+Right, order of history items is not changed.
