go to folder

Post by thire »

It would be nice to have a button in the search window (tab/frame?) "change to containing folder".

Okay.
I am searching some image(s). (BTW: It looks confusing: "0 files found" - but it's still searching). Then I can "view" the found images. It would be nice to click right on the file and to have an option "go to / open the folder which contains this file".
Sometimes I am looking for the images I took on my Italy trip, so I look for "Pisa" and then I want to see ALL the toscana images in this folder...
was this clear now? not a very big deal I guess, but handy...

A "Open parent folder" makes sense to me. (MS Explorer on Windows XP provides this feature for search results, too. XnView is not Explorer, but...)
