How to customize a tab event

Help & Support
1

In the existing options, you can only double-click the tab to close the current tab。
What I need is

  1. Hold down the CTRL key, left click and double-click the tab: copy the current tab
  2. Hold down the shift key and double-click the tab with the left button: move the current tab to another column
  3. Hold down the ALT key and double-click the tab with the left key: open the current tab in a new window
  4. Middle click tab: open the current tab in Explorer
  5. Hold down the CTRL key and middle click the tab: lock the current tab
  6. Hold down the shift key and middle click the tab: Unlock the current tab
  7. Hold down the ALT key and middle click the tab: display the current tab properties
    What should I do

You can use scripting to do some of those things:

Note that some of those actions already have similar things, like Alt + Click cycles through tab-lock modes by default.

I happened upon the fact that Alt + Click on a tab cycled through the tab-lock modes. Later, I came upon this forum entry. I couldn't find this keystroke in the web help file. If it is indeed not there, could it be added? Thanks.

We're working on an updated manual at the moment, and I've added it to that.

I can't do exactly what you need but here is my best approach:

  1. Hold down the CTRL key, left click and double-click the tab: copy the current tab
  2. Hold down the shift key and double-click the tab with the left button: move the current tab to another column
  3. Hold down the ALT key and double-click the tab with the left key: open the current tab in a new window

Duplicate the Current Tab in the Source\tShift+T

  • Go TABDUPLICATE

Duplicate the Current Tab in the Destination\tCtrl+T

  • Go TABDUPLICATE=dual

Move the Tab to the Destination\tAlt+T

  • Go TABMOVE=active
  1. Middle click tab: open the current tab in Explorer

Open the Current Tab in File Explorer\t<Ctrl+Shift+Alt+T

  • %windir%\Explorer.exe /e, {sourcepath$}
  1. Hold down the CTRL key and middle click the tab: lock the current tab
  2. Hold down the shift key and middle click the tab: Unlock the current tab
  • Alt+Click to cycle through the options
  1. Hold down the ALT key and middle click the tab: display the current tab properties
  • Info icon on Status Bar

@jinsight I know this function can be realized by selecting files through the File Type dialog box, but how can this be realized on the tab?

Here is my Folder Tabs Context Menu:

The red line shows the first four options in my OP.

Thanks for sharing, it seems to be right click menu and some shortcuts.
I looked at script events and found only ontabclick events. I wonder how modifier+left double click and modifier+middle click are defined.

Which keys are held down is given to you when the OnTabClick event is called.
