cm_CloseAllTabs without confirmation ?

[Horst.Epp]

I have a button for the internal command cm_CloseAllTabs
but this asks for confirmation which I find useless as I would not press this button by accident.

Code: Select all

cm_VisDirTabs	2916	Show/hide folder tabs

EDIT:
There are examples where no confirmation is required.
(In this case, only the tab for drive C: remains in the left and right TC window).

cm_VisDirTabs its not a solution as it only toggles the visbility of tabs.
So when I use that once, tabs are no longer shown at all.

With cm_VisDirTabs -> ALL tabs can be hidden and shown again.

... So when I use that once, tabs are no longer shown at all.

So I don't understand this statement.

It's not clear to me what goal you actually want to achieve.

I currently only know of these two options:
1. Show/hide all tabs -> cm_VisDirTabs
2. Close all tabs except 1 tab (including "locked Tabs" and "Tabs, locked, but directory changes allowed")

With both options, no confirmations are required.

Code: Select all

cm_CloseAllTabs	3008	Close all

... can NOT close
- "locked tabs" AND
- "Tabs, locked but directory change allowed"

With cm_CloseAllTabs you don't want to have a confirmation query.
- What do you think should happen to the locked tabs?
- In your opinion, should a tab still be visible, eg C: or should no tab be visible at all?

If you accept to use nircmdc tool, my "no wait" solution is the following using 3 user commands.

Code: Select all

em_Ydown : 
cmd:<Path_to>\nircmdc
parameter: sendkey Y down

em_Yup : 
cmd:<Path_to>\nircmdc
parameter: sendkey Y up

em_closeAllTabs_noWait:
cmd:em_Ydown,cm_CloseAllTabs,em_Yup

On my machine nircmd/nircmdc are on the path so no need to prefix by <Path_to>\ !

Thats wrong.
Only cm_VisDirTabs doesn't require a confirmation
but this only hides all tabs which is not what I requested.

cm_CloseAllTabs requires a confirmation at least on my TC.

Thats wrong.

No confirmation is required for the solutions given here.

Since I don't know what your end result should look like and I didn't get an answer to my questions,
I think it's better for me if I get off topic.
No offense.

I use NirCmd a lot but this doesn't work.
cm_CloseAllTabs waits until userinput and the next command is not send in this case.
The solution would be an Autohotkey script.

Petermads last solution in this thread works and preserves the displayed tabs on both sides

Have you made a test in this order, [Y down, cm_CloseAllTabs, Y up ] using a button ?
The Y key down (before dialog), the TC dialog intercept it and close, Y up key !

But anyway the solution with a tab file is even better...

Yes, I tried it with this sequence but it didn't work.
The tab file solution is a clever idea.
