Have fun!

neat, i guess.. or you could just add a button to the styler toolbar to do the same thing, or do a right click/select new/select folder.

#410098

Hehe, that's pretty cool--one developer adding making another application to use for another developer's program.

Thanks, this is a pretty handy tool!

Thats cool Carlos did you have to get some source off alianyn first?

#410198

Thanks Carlos.

I'd scripted a shortcut into dropbar just too lazy to complete the rest.

#410201

Nice.

Is there any way to make the FinderXer show up when you open explorer already?

#410223

dorsc, this has already been implemented in the latest version by alianyn.

Download the latest version @ his site: http://www.tomseffect.com/

No.

Cool.

Piniata's pedantic streak: *its FindeXer, not FinderXer* !! :)

Nice one Carlos!

#410318

I must be doing something seriously wrong, I unzipped the file and put it in the FindeXer folder, is there a menu that pops up?

#410321

You have to place the "Create New Folder.exe" in FindeXer bar, not folder. Just drag and drop it like any item.

#410324

I see, I thought this would be a menu option when I rightclicked.

#410325

Very nicely done!

@Austin - it is planned (as i've mentioned) to add the "new" item menu to the default context menu of the items in the future. But this is a simple and pretty elegant solution for now.

#410335

this is great!!

#411262

personally, i'd rather have it already integrated into the styler skin, or just use the right click menu option over running a seperate program to do it. it makes more sense esthetically

Create New Folder b3 (22Aug06)

- It's not necessary to set the Explorer title to show full path anymore (*)

(*) Explorer title has a limit length so another procedure was necessary

#412878

This most recent version doesn't work for me either way.

SirSmiley,

Do you use styler?

This version takes the text of the address combo. How's yours look like?

Testing it in 2 PCs without problem.

#413990

Yes I'm using styler plus full paths in combo.

#414492

Please, use the previous version. It seems that Styler uses another memory address for the combo. Don't forget to let full path in the Explorer window title:

Already have been.

Can I see a screenshot of this? I downloaded it, but I don't know what to do with it.
