Accessing Dock Sub-Folders and Files

With the implementation of Stacks in Leopard I've noticed that I've lost the ability to access sub-folders and files within folders contained in the Dock. In Tiger I could access any sub-folder or file from the pop-up menu of a folder in the Dock. Using Stacks, I can only access a sub-folder and have its window open.
Does anybody know if there is a way to access the files within the sub-folder without having to open that folder window? I find this a step backward from Tiger as you have to use multiple steps to access a file that may be several folders deep.
Any suggestions would be most welcome.

I might also add, what you see as a step back, there is also a step forward here. Before the only method of sorting the folder contents off the Dock without opening a Finder window was by name. Now you have several methods when you switch from opening in arc to grid mode, by clicking once on the stack and changing the mode from automatic to grid. This shows all the stack items then in any sort view you want once grid is selected.

  • Workspace folders and files

    Hi experts,
    Is there a query or api for listing the folders, sub-folders and files associated to each workspace in the collab. suite.
    Please advise.

    We want to have a report of contents in each workspace in a hierarchical order. For example:
    ws1-> folder1 -> sub-folder 1--> file A, file B, fileC
    ws1-> folder2 -> sub-folder 2--> file D, file E
    ws2-> folder1 -> sub-folder 1--> sub-folder 11 ->file X,. file Y
    ws2-> folder2 -> sub-folder 2--> sub-folder 12 ->file Z
    ws2-> folder3 -> sub-folder 3--> file W, file T
    Of course, multiple levels of sub-folders may exist in a hierarchy.

  • Sub folders and Process multiple files in Photoshop Elements 10

    I am looking to apply the same adjustments to numerous images in numerous sub-folders and overwrite the original images.
    Using the Process Multiple Files options,  I added the main folder (which contains no images) to the Source field, selected the Include All Subfolders tick-box, also selected the Same as Source tick-box (which warns you original files will be overwritten) and then completed the image adjustments I required.   However, after running the process all the adjusted images were saved in the main folder and did not overwrite the originals contained in each sub-folder.  Does anyone know if there is a setting I am missing to replace the images in the sub-folders or is this by design ?

    bossti a écrit:
    hi, so is it possible to keep the same subfolder structure as output location? regards! bostjan
    No...
    I think you are going to run great risks in trying to use batch process like 'process multiple files' or 'export' while relying on subfolder structures.
    - the organizer is much more powerful with its database and keywords management than a folder structure organization,
    - Batch processes are limited in Elements
    - 'Good practice' calls for keeping originals intact.
    What are you wanting to do exactly ? We might be able to suggest alternative workflows.

  • Accessing Windows Drive its folders and files through KM

    Hi All,
    I have portal server installed in my laptop with KM, i would like to access windows C drive with all folders and files in my local machine what are the configurations i have to do.
    One more thing
    In real time scenario can we use CM repository, my requiremtn is to store documents of diffrent king which repository we can use which data base what configurations we have to set, basically what is the difference between internal and external repositories.
    regards,
    Murali

    Hi Murali,
    Internal repositories are those which come created in the KM like etc, documents and many more.
    External repositories are folders on diff locations (either on server or at other system) which are mapped to KM as repositories.
    Now. about ur requirement : You can try mapping the path c:\ as a folder in KM by making a File Repository manager.
    For storing different kind of  documents you can make different folders in Windows and map them as repositories by configuring File Rep managers for them
    See this[ link|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/e3/92322ab24e11d5993800508b6b8b11/frameset.htm]  to know about configuring a file repository manager.
    I hope it helps.

    [What Should Be Invisible Isn't|http://www.pinkmutant.com/articles/toovisible.html]

JuhOS X lists all files and flags invisible ones. Some applications let you toggle invisibility, though this doesn't take effect until you restart the Finder.
    The other thing to do is verify your drive with Disk Utility. Your computer isn't likely to be suddenly deciding to hide files, but aberrant behavior could be an indicator of a corrupt drive.

  • How to restrict access to sub folders (apart from Manual settings)?

    Hi,
    Is there any method to stop the  group traverse from main Folder to sub folder when user group has access to main folder?
    So that no need to give no access to sub folders manually for given group.
    Manual access settings have become tedious due to large number of sub folder and user groups.
    Scenario:-
    There is a main Folder F1 and it has 100 Sub Folder SF1 to SF100. And these sub folders has child folders.
    Group G1 should have access only  F1, and should not have the access its child folders.
    How can we eliminate manual work to remove access for each group at each sub-folder level?
    Thanks,
    Anu

    Access restrictons by default are inherited from parent folders downward.
    You can break the inheritance, but you'll still need to manualy setup initial security.
    Details are in the Admin guide.

  • How can I explore the folders and files on my phon...

    How can I explore the folders and files on my phone from my phone (lumia 920)?

    the file system including all the data pertaining to that partition is closed on windowsphone8, unlike that of Symbian.
    the only part you will be able to see is what you would see in this post here: /t5/Nokia-Lumia/Transfer-file-for-920/m-p/1605954#M24335
    the rest is locked unless you have developer access, and even then not much as you would just use the SDK to make your applications.

  • How to find folders and files by its partial name c#

    in a specific folder of my hard drive i have stored many other sub folder and files. now i want to list those folders and files name by their partial name.
    for example
    c webapi xx folder
    c mvctutorial xx folder
    done webapi xx folder
    webapi done folder
    webapi.zip file
    mvc.iso file
    now when i like to search by partial name webapi then i want to get list of files and folders name which has webapi word. i want to show their full folder or file name in grid with their full path and size. like below way.
    Name Type location Size
    c webapi xx folder c:\test1 2 KB
    c mvctutorial xx folder c:\test3 3 KB
    done webapi xx folder c:\test1 11 KB
    webapi done folder c:\test1 9 KB
    webapi.zip file c:\test1 20 KB
    mvc.iso file c:\test4 5 KB

  • Can't hide Hidden folders and files.

    Hi All,
    This past weekend I transferred my OS and apps to a newly installed SSD drive.
    During the process I had to move some files around in order to get The OS and Apps on the SSD.
    I used a technique that utilizes the Terminal and the chflags command.
    My issue is now I can not hide the files and folders that are usually hidden.
    I can't remember the exact method I used to unhide hidden folders and files. I can't even find a reference to it in my web browsers history.
    I have searched on the web for solutions along these lines:
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -boolean FALSE ; killall Finder
    chflags hidden
    sudo chflags hidden
    But none of these approaches have worked.
    I have downloaded Onyx, TinkerTool and Show Hide Invisible Files.
    I have used them as best I understand to hide the normally hidden files and folders, but nothing has worked.
    Any Command Line gurus out there have any suggestions?
    Many Thanks in Advance!

  • Assigning folders and files to different physical disks OS X 10.9

    My mid 2010 iMac 27 i7 quadcore, 32 GB memory has two 1 TB SSDs and several 2 to 3 TB 7200 / 5200 SATA, Firewire, LAN and USB external HDs. I would like to direct OS X 10.9 to use frequently accessed System data/images (boot, OS X, utilities and and their attendant folders and files) from SSD 1 and frequently used / accessed applications and their attendant folders and files on the second SSD 2. (I use Microsft Office Word and Excel frequently and also Windows 7 running on VMWare.) Then I would like to keep less frequently used applications and their attendant folders and files on the SATA 7200 external disk (USB 3.0 to 2.0), photos on a fourth external disk (firewire 800), music on a NAS (Raid 1, 1000Gb Ethernet), and movies on a fifth external HD (firewire 800). What I need to know is how to "assign" these various files to a physical disk. Please, I am not looking for opinions and/or guesses. I am looking for a strategy known to work and/or utilites known do set this up easily and correctly. Thanks in advance. BTW, I am a retired OS programmer and software/HW knowlegable. I have no Unix (or of course Apple OS X) programming experience, but have written and modified many other OSs. So one can be reasonably technical with me in their answers. Thanks again, Skip.
