Sorry to bring this up again. I just think it could be beneficial. Would it be possible to make it work without needing the path: prefix and angle brackets? Maybe by adding a toggle like Flow Launcher's Search Full Path?
Just to clarify my previous reply. Flow Launcher also has Everything integration. It uses the Everything SDK, which includes the Everything.dll. Its settings page includes a toggle named Search Full Path, which corresponds to the Match Path setting in voidtools' Everything.
For example, if this is the path I'm trying to navigate to: I:\Directory Opus\Folder 001
When Search Full Path is enabled, it allows partial name matching within the full path, making it much quicker to jump to a location without typing the entire path.
Is this primarily for searching (getting a list of matches), or for navigating to a folder?
If it's for navigating, it can probably be done already, but I'd have to double-check the details.
Edit: Thinking some more, I think both things could be done via a FAYT (Find As You Type) script, if something that worked that way made sense to how you want to use it. (Similar to the other modes listed under Preferences / Filtering and Sorting / Quick Keys.) I can probably help with that, if so.
However, I'd like to make this work without having to type the path: prefix and angle brackets, ideally by enabling a Match Path toggle option, similar to what’s available in voidtools’ Everything GUI or Flow Launcher.
Thank you. I’d definitely be interested in that script. But I’m wondering, is there a reason why this couldn’t be implemented natively in Directory Opus’s Everything integration?
