Lab project folders


Overview

Create the folder structure of a project quickly. You can create folders, build hierarchies, read the structure of the current project, drag items, auto-number and more. It is already used by two tools: the Pr toolkit and the Ae toolkit.

Features

• Get project tree reads the folder structure of the current project and shows it in the panel.
• Create project tree creates the activated folders in the Project panel following the structure. Folders that already exist are skipped, and missing ones are added.
• Get local tree reads the folder structure of a path on your disk and shows it in the panel.
• Create local tree creates the activated folders at the local path you choose. Folders that already exist are skipped, and missing ones are added.
• Default tree loads the default preset project tree of the extension
• Reload tree loads the project tree you saved earlier (if any)
• Save tree saves the current folder hierarchy and activation state locally, so the Pr toolkit project tree and the Ae toolkit project tree can use it
• Numbering switches whether folders are ordered by number. With numbers on, the prefix is calculated for you.
• Tree structure manages the hierarchy and activation state, and supports adding, deleting, renaming, drag-and-drop sorting and more.
• Copy to clipboard copies the activated tree to the clipboard with its hierarchy, handy for notes and annotations later. For example:

Release notes

• 2.4.2 Save and manage folder structures in the preset library on the right. When reading from your computer, folders that are too deep or too many are imported only in part, with a notice, so the app does not freeze.
