Figure 3.7: The Integrated Explorer
Panel’s Recent list (top), Directory
list (middle), and File list (bottom).
The Directory list, right below the Recent list, displays drives and
directories in a hierarchical tree fashion. If a directory is selected, the
Folders list displays the files in that directory.
The File list, below the Directory list, displays all the files in the selected
directory that match the selected filter (from the Filter list at the bottom.
see Figure 3.8). You can select one or more files from this list and double-
click, or drag-and-drop them over the editor pane, to open those files.
You may also open files with the Open From... option by selecting File
Open From, or by pressing Ctrl+Shift+O. This allows quick access to any
directory for the default and favorite directories set within Preferences (see
page 60) as well as any recently used directory. The Save To... option
works similarly; select File Save To or press Ctrl+Shift+S. These
features can be very helpful if you organize your files in many different
directories.
The Filter list at the bottom of the explorer panel (Figure 3.8), is a drop-
down list of file extension filters to apply to the File list. It works just like
the “Save as type:” field of a standard Open or Save dialog.
