Filelist Toolbar

Post by taijitu »

Hello,
Is there a way to clear the list of files in the Filelist Toolbar? I tried Files/Recent files/Clear but that did not clear the list in the toolbar. Thank you!

Salut!

I'll bring this back to life because I have this question as well.

Yes, In the Browser (or Filelist) toolbar (View > "Filelist toolbar" checked), is there a way to clear any one or all of the recently accessed files displayed there?

Okay. Thanks for the clarification and I added a new post in the Suggestions with a few other ideas for this function.

Cheers!

Filelist address bar history can be cleared using 'Purge Now' in Settings>Interface

Ah! Already a step forward, but that also purges recent files, which users may or may not want when they purge the folders.

Ironically, users can delete all recent files alone (Files > Recent files > Clear), but they can't delete all recent folders alone...
