Creating Virtual Folders From Selected Files and Folders
A new Dynamic Virtual Folder (DVF) can be created from
the current selections in either an Explorer Tab or
another virtual folder. And once it has been created you
can continue to add more items to the DVF by drag and
drop.
After the initial DVF has been created you can make dragging and dropping easier
by moving the new Virtual
Folder to its own Tab group and then drag from an
Explorer tab to the Virtual Folder as shown below.
To Create the Dynamic Virtual Folder
 First
Select the files or folder you want to add to the new
Dynamic Virtual Folder. They can be files, folders or
any combination of both. It does not matter if they are
from an Explore Tab or another Virtual Folder.
Then
Press
Alt+F, D, C
Or select File | New Dynamic File Set |
Selections
Adding More Files and Folders
After the DVF has been created you can drag and drop
files and folders on to it and even sort the entries by
dragging them up and down.
When you drop new objects on a Virtual Folder be sure to
drop them on empty space or over a file. If you drop objects
over a folder they will be copied to that folder rather than
added to the virtual folder.
The easiest way to do this is to put the Virtual Folder
tab into a tab group by itself and then use an explore view
to drag files and folders to it. (Note that in the pictures
below the Tab Group for Dynamic virtual folder has been
moved to the left to make everything easier at this small
size. To adjust the positions of the tab groups just put the
cursor over the wide bar between them, click and hold the
left mouse button and drag right or left to the new
position.)
