Help - Naviagation Pane Disappeared

(1/2) > >>

David Sydney:
Help! I have been useing MC for about 7 years, and I have just now hit some hot key where all the left pane navigation and tag items have disappeared. I think I hit some hot key combination. Now I cannot figure out how to turn them back on. Pane with Audio, Viod, TV etc. and the tags.

What did I do - how to turn them back on? I have tried every menu combination I can find, searched on the web also. Something simple I hope?

JimH:
Click on small triangles at left.

David Sydney:
Thank you - took me a little while to see which little triangle you were referring to  :)

Is there actually a hot key or menu option for this as I don't think I clicked on anything to make it disappear - anyone?

blgentry:
I looked in the MC keyboard shortcuts list and I don't see anything related to hiding the navigation pane.  It might be hiding in there somewhere, but I was unable to find it.

I also went through many of MC's menus looking for the function and could not locate it there.  My guess is that you accidentally landed your mouse *right* on the triangle as you were pushing a mouse button.  But that's a guess. 

Glad you got your nav tree back.

Brian.

Try this...

MCC command 22029 toggles the tree.

Sooo...
In the MC installation folder, there's a "Data" folder. Create a folder inside that called "Custom Resources".
Inside that folder, you want to place a file called Resource.xml

Mine is a simple three thing affair, and is in the attached zip file. It contains the code below...

--- Code: ---<MJRS version="1.0">
 
<ACCELERATORS>

    <!-- Global shortcut that begins a Play Doctor session -->
    <Entry Key="Ctrl;Alt;R" Command="10047" Global="1" />


    <!-- Go to folder containing selected file -->
    <Entry Key="Ctrl;Alt;D" Command="26004" Param="-2" />


<!-- Toggles the tree pane open and closed -->
<Entry Key="Ctrl;T" Command="22029" Param="-1" TranslateFlags="23" />
   
</ACCELERATORS>

</MJRS>
--- End code ---

So, close MC, create the folder, extract the xml file into it, and restart MC. Now...

Ctrl+Alt+R will kick off a 'Play Doctor' playlist. This is a 'global' hotkey combo, so will work, as long as MC is running, regardless of which application is currently in focus.
Ctrl+Alt+D will open your default file explorer at the location of the currently selected file, and select that file.
Ctrl+T will toggle the tree open and closed.

If you don't want the other two, simply open the the xml file in a text editor and remove their entries.
Enjoy for the weekend :)
