Navigation pane Win7: inactive favorite area

  • The area of FAVORITES in the navigation pane is not active.  When I try to insert files or folders in the field, nothing happens.  It does not work using drag and drop or by using the manual method ('add to Favorites' Favorites').  Using drag-and - d├⌐poser gives a red cirkel.
What can be done to activate the FAVORITES area?
  • I use Windows 7 Ultimate UK on a laptop Toshiba R500.

  • My navigation pane items disappear... can anyone help me get it back?

    That's what I seehttp://tinypic.com/r/nye990/6

    But when I save a picture or something that looks like this http://tinypic.com/r/30vzygj/6

    I think that the "favorite links" is one missing. The navigation pane shows the favorite links are not displayed, but instead he said: (empty). The folders hidden may be the reason why they do not display. On the second picture in front records there is an arrow down, clicking on who should hide the folders and up arrow appears below. See the following llink to show how they should appear;

  • Windows Explorer expands inappropriate files, the folder that develop you to the bottom of the jump navigation pane

    When you use a left-hand Navigation pane, if there is enough of folders in the navigation pane as you have a vertical scroll bar, if you click on a folder with the mouse (to see supported in the right pane), and then expand the folder (either by clicking on the symbol + or with the arrow key) , then the left pane automatically scrolls upward as far as possible such as the folder you expanded is yet in sight at the bottom of the pane. This command deletes the folder under the mouse, where it should stay.

    This is certainly a bug, as it only happens the first time you try to extend a record of the way. After having done it once, you can scroll the navigation (left) pane so that the file in question is back in the middle of the pane, and it will expand and contract as expected, remaining under the mouse.

    Because many people seem interested in this question, I'll post some info about my recent contact with Microsoft about this issue.

    It seems that everywhere where this issue has been spoken, all someone would get to a Microsoft employee was a response to "Thank you for your comments" mat. Never the validity of the issue has been discussed or even acknowledged. I decided to write an e-mail to the responsible man, Steve Ballmer, clearly the problem with links to a procedure step by step problem, this discussion and report bug with 220 votes (at the time). I realized that Steve would never read himself, but I thought that his email should get automatically transferred to a person who can actually read.
    Two days later I received an email from a specialist in defense of Microsoft saying a "case of grace" was created and the escalation of Windows team should get in touch with me. The next day, an engineer of the climbing sent ask when would be the right time to talk about issues on the phone. So it would be quite clear with what I was talking about, I've recorded a screencast walking through that was precisely the problem.
    Edit: I made a video more condensed showing the "record jump bug", see here.
    This has resulted in our discussions:
    1. engineers are aware of this problem.
    2. they may, or may not provide a fix for it.
    Nothing revolutionary, but it's a little more push in the right direction. In my opinion, post in this thread on the problem has practically no value. I suggest you:
    1 vote upward and commenting on the bug here:
    He said that the site is being monitored by the dev team.
    2. writing intelligent and without rudeness complaints that mention how the bug affects negatively your workflow file management every day. Send these to the top of the food chain of Microsoft until you get an answer. You are a paying customer and you deserve to be heard.
    I'm tired of dealing with him, so now use XYplorer when you perform heavy file management. It stings to have to pay for a decent file manager, but that's life. If this question bothers you at all, please comment and vote on the bugand write an email.
    13/09/11 PATCH: Bug is still present in Windows 8 Developer Preview, see here.
    01/30/12 UPDATE: Finally, we have a public recognition that this is actually a bug that needs to be addressed, and it will be apparently fixed in Windows 8 beta coming. It's good news, but I know I'll use Win7 for at least a year or two, as will be much, much more. We deserve a patch for this problem in Win7. Until that happens, keep Microsoft listening to this topic.
    FINAL THOUGHTS: It is a real bug with 645
    ! votes on their feedback page, however MS didn't intend to fix for Windows 7 users. The bug is fixed in Windows 8, which means nothing to many of us who do not intend to upgrade. If this bug really gets under the skin, I suggest to install the classic interface, which has been recommended several times in this thread. You can choose to install only the feature "Classic Explorer" which corrects this bug among others and even remember the old UI for copy of file which is so nice to have in return. I used it for many months now without worries.
    In addition, for those of you who think that they find a solution to this problem by changing just a few parameters options somewhere... Thank you for your desire to help each of us, but you do not have the same problem and please do not post here your 'solution '. If you read some of the 29 pages of this thread, you will see that all the imaginable solutions has been suggested. There is a bug in the browser itself. If you are using Windows 7 and plan to continue using it, your options are 1) use the classic interface, or 2) use a third-party files, such as XYplorermanagement tool. If you stumble across this thread because you noticed this bug, please vote for the bugand make 1 or 2.
  • Navigation pane completely screwed after Parent folder library moved to the desktop by mistake

    Please someone help me! I was at the own temporary file last night and somehow in the process I need to have done drag the folder of libraries under the desk on the Navigation pane. So I had Office appear under Favorites and then as one of the bureau which had libraries in it as well as Documents, music, photos and videos. I found a suggestion of support that says right click on libraries and then "restore default". However, this does not work. I then found another suggestion of support under another question posted and he said to go to your username and to restore by default and now ALL my files are appearing under the second office. (First Office is always appear under Favorites.) When I watch the office itself there is no shortcut to libraries. I just like my tree organized as the default Windows Navigation pane. I am petrified to do more on mine because I don't want to make one delete a folder and lose anything! On top of that, I have Sync of sugar which is on my old laptop and my other I'm talking about now. I had taken two laptops for "Geek Squad" to have everything transferred on another and explained that I had a storage cloud sync program. They said they knew all about who and how to get all the data on the new laptop. I told them that I didn't need to use the cable to transfer mobile to mobile. HOWEVER, when I picked up the laptops, they HAD used the cable and all the folders have been duplicated! I didn't know how to get rid of duplicates (not knowing which was the record 'original' and who was the double, so I left it alone.) At least I knew how to find my stuff! I wish I could post a screenshot of what it looks like now, but I can't understand how to do it anymore. I press prt sc to copy it to the Clipboard and then try to paste here, but it does not work. Sorry this is so long and hiking but I wanted to try to describe what happened. I'm desperate! Any help is appreciated!

    Well good to remove the nine, just right-click and use 'delete' or 'delete' (varies according to the place where the icon).  Without prejudice to the because you can always pick up something from the trash if you accidentally delete.

    What I would say is just first TreeViewImageSet.Custom to folder Explorer all values by default in order to boot from a fresh install by default.  To do this:

    1. Click on organize at the top left of the folder, choose folder and Search Options
    2. Click 'Restore defaults' on all 3 tabs, and then click OK.

  • How can I get Vista navigation pane to only work for a specific folder view?

    I am running Windows Vista classic folders. Significant irritation is that I want to have the navigation pane enabled for the _only_ in my computer/Windows Explorer folder. I don't want that it activated for other folders with groups of icons for programs.

    But I find that when I turn it on for the first folder, it becomes activated for all. On the other hand, if I turn it off for a program icon folder, it is disabled for all files, including the Windows Explorer.

    So, how to customize the navigation pane to make it work for a folder specific _only_?

    The other models are for music or photos or videos or Documents (and I can't remember the fifth).  They show the different columns and present different data sorted differently.  I don't think they will solve your problem.

    Some general information here is on models and how to set any records that might be of interest to you (but will not solve your problem, I think):

    Here's how to change the default template for a folder: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/70819-windows-explorer-folder-view-settings.html.  Default behavior is to select the model based on the first type of file placed in the folder (you must choose something).  Vista sets the folder type template according to what are the types of files in the window and the settings display window Explorer. This will show how to reset the display settings for the Windows File Explorer, disable Automatic folder Type Discovery (which is I think what you want)and increase the folder display the cache to make Vista do not forget the display settings, the folder type template, the size or the position of a specific window for when it was still closed to the location of specific path.

    It does not work with the Sub record under, Open with, open in a new tab (Internet Explorer), etc... dialog windows of type through the good File menu bar item. These don't seem to be able to have their size or their position to recall. For the latter, you can use the free program http://autosizer.en.softonic.com/ to resize them.

    Here is another article on how to modify the columns in Windows Explorer and sort in Vista: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/108665-column-customize.html.  This will show you how Add, Remove, move, change the widthand change the sort order of the columns in Windows Explorer in the way that you want.

    Here is another article on how to change the display of the default folders in Vista (but she argues, it is not a perfect solution and can revert to the previous behavior is not as good as the two prior links provided: http://news.cnet.com/8301-13880_3-10019957-68.html.)

    I hope this helps in your situation.

  • The single Win Explorer Navigation pane click on the name of the folder to expand the subfolders

    In Win XP, you can even click on the folder name to develop the next level of subfolders.

    In Win 7, it takes a double-click and the > is difficult to achieve.

    What a pain.  How can get fixed?

    Other than replacing by another file manager.

    Hello

    I understand that you are facing difficulties during the expansion of the subfolders on the Windows Explorer Navigation pane. I understand the inconvenience.

     

    You must expand the tree first and then do the following.

    1. open WindowsExplorer.

    2. expand and click on Tools folder options -->

    3 in the navigation pane, select the check box to display all records and extend automatically to the current foldedr and click ok.

  • On the Navigation pane

    Hello

    in my application consists of four different pages, so the navigation must occur one after another by clicking on the buttons in the navigation pane used pirticular page.i, using this I am able to navigate to the next page, after that how can I move to another page.

    Thank you.

    When the page is pushed into the NavigationPane, the NavigationPane becomes its parent.

    It can be accessed like this:

    SecondPage.qml

    Page
    {
      id: secondPage
    
      ...
    
      secondPage.parent.push(thirdPage) // secondPage.parent is Page's NavigationPane
    }
    

    ThirdPage.qml

    Page
    {
      id: thirdPage
    
      ...
    
      thirdPage.parent.push(fourthPage)
    }
    

    etc.

    Also, you can access items in the hierarchy by their id-s even between QML files. Thus, a reference to the NavigationPane directly by id probably will also work. It will work in some cases, for example if there are the ListViews in the hierarchy. I like the previous approach, because the pages will be autonomous and they can be easily rearranged.

  • Navigation pane: gesture of slide and corn pages

    I use the NavigationPane to manage the transiction from one application Page to the other.

    I have two questions for you:

    (1) I would like to know if it is possible to disable the gesture of slide to "pop" or close the Page by dragging it from left to right.

    (2) it would be nice also to avoid the "pop" of the image when the gesture of the slide is active and I slide to a left-hand page. If I want to go back to the page on the right, I need to push it again in the Navigation pane. Is it possible to avoid this? For example, if I have a 3 page I go to the right page and then back to left pages no matter how many times I do it. How can I achieve this?

    Thanks in advance

    There's no reason you can't have a launch a thumb to the back of the image or for that matter have a "Forward" ActionItem, both are possible.

    Allows you to recognize the signal OnTouch (unfortunately it is not GestureHandler for it yet) and push the page when the shot is from right to left.

    Why do you want to avoid the pop?
    I understand you not wanting to destroy the page and keep in memory for faster loading, but there is little to gain from popping is not page, does that remove the battery of the navigationPane. Push and popping of pages has little impact on the effectiveness, it is actually adding or deleting a pointer to a list.

    If I were you I would implement some sort of caching so that as you walk in both directions between the pages you keep say 5 in memory with two part and the other the power of images and destroy the rest outside of this cache. When you move one way or the other you asynchronously create page two pages far in this direction. In this way, reduce you the memory requirements and keep speed high.

  • SQLite query on error in Navigation pane

    The second page is similar to the first page, but it shows a list of subitems from another table in the same database using the item_id. The item_id and nom_element are called in the second page here:

    property int itemId
    property string itemName
    

    and inside the data source, I have the following query:

    DataSource {

                        source: "sql/items.db"

                        onDataLoaded: {
                            contentList.insertList(data);
                        }
                    }
    

    But the query does not return any value.

    But it returns the correct output for:

    query: "select * from subItems"
    
    query: "select * from items"
    

    I am also able to output the itemId value with:

    label {
          text: itemId
    }
    

    I tried to remove the data source query and adding

    onItemIdChanged: {
      contentSource.query = "select * from subItems where item_id = "+itemId
      contentSource.load();
    
    }
    

    at the end of the page. It does not work.

    onItemIdChanged: {
      contentSource.query = "select * from subItems where item_id = "+itemId
      contentSource.load();
    
    }
    

    This method works. Don't know why I don't understand well when I tried the first time

  • Inconsistencies of pesky navigation pane

    Hello. I went back through the forum and were able to find most of the answers to my questions for WebHelp navigation pane.

    TOC font, I edited whtdhtml.htm; for spacing of OCD, I edited whthost.js; for research, I edited whfbody.htm; for Index, I edited whibody.htm, and for the width of the pane, I edited whskin_frmset01.htm.

    And well who did the part much better, there are still a few anomalies, that I can't quite reconcile. For each of the three tabs (table of contents, Index, and search), I use the same font style and size (currently Times New Roman 14).

    The three issues are pending:

    • TOC values tab default to open unless it is justified to the left, so cut the image of the book. I moved the image of the page (with exclamation mark) to the right, but I can't get the image of main book to move and/or have the tab to open with her scrolled all the way to the left so that it is not cut the image of the book.
    • There are still a few inconsistent spacing between inputs and the results of these three tabs. Change the spacing between the elements of the table of contents was pretty easy (change the var gsMargin value), but I'm not sure an equivalents indexing and search.
    • The settings in the whfbody.htm file are the same as the other two settings tab: setFont ("Normal", "Times New Roman", "14pt", "Black", "Normal", "Bold", "none"), but the search results do not appear in bold.

    If all goes well, the following illustration shows a little more clearly these three questions.

    navigation tabs.jpg

    With our new application mainly defined for screens, shelves, etc., I really need to be aware of the table of contents, index and search entry dimensions and spacing. So, if anyone has any ideas to refine the placement of book TOC far-left, the spacing between the results, through tabs and the absence of a font in bold on the 'Search' tab I would really appreciate.

    Thank you

    We develop the MicroStrategy Office add-in for Excel for our customers.

    Once installed, a CHM file is copied to the client's hard drive.

    We want to replace this with our own custom help.

    I created a CHM file with a subject that redirects clients to our WebHelp customzied with content for the add-in.

    One of the subjects has a redirect in the header HTML following code:

    < meta http-equiv = "refresh" content = "0; URL =https://customhelp.htm#AddIn_Introduction.htm"/ > "

    That works very well in my tests.

    Here's my problem...

    The HTML Help Viewer opens and hides the Navigation pane and displays the WebHelp (navigation pane, the menu bar and topic pane) automatically.

    But, the HTML Help Viewer still has the hide/show/hide button for HTML Help navigation pane.

    Is it possible to disable this hide or let it stand, but turn off the navigation pane?

    As always, any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you-

    You should be able to disable in the settings of the window. Make sure that you uncheck the boxes search and Glossary before you uncheck the Index checkbox & OCD. (My quick test seemed to honor these settings, even when they are grey)
