i didn't realize you wanted to open the menu, i though you wanted the list of the commands in the DIALOG (Alt+U, U, More)
they are functionally the same, and at any rate that's the only one available as a macro
adding & in a command name isn't going to work as you've discovered

Re: How do I do...
the first one is easy, use the macro recorder and open the menu you want, and when you see the organize dialog click on FINISH
for more information see here www.zabkat.com/x2h_7a.htm#mak_record
about the second one, if I understand it, it's not possible to automate this kind of thing inside a dialog

Re: v6
There are some settings which (I think) affect every pane and every tab in the file pane. Sometimes I would prefer that I could have a different setting for different tabs, and that the tab would remember its setting. TOOLS > ADVANCED OPTIONS, search for "Each folder tab can have different vie...

Re: v6
File Locator Pro, because it is more powerful and selective than X2's search.... I have used Bulk Rename Utility because it too is much more powerful than X2's built-in renamer. so what do you find in these programs that xplorer2 cannot do? sometimes people are not aware that features exist in xplo...

Re: v6
I think we discussed "custom properties" before, right? The problem is that they wouldn't be fast-searchable. The generic comments property is for this purpose and it is indexed for many file types (=fast search) I saw that other FMs are embedding this Everything tool, I might consider abo...

Re: v6
xplorer2 does this for simple F2 renaming, but you must have ticked the advanced option F2 selects whole filename ? Manyx , for wish#1, the focus would have to move to the active folder, so the best I can do is do this activation for you automatically (but the tree will lose the focus anyway). Is th...

Re: v6
wish 1 : press ALT+T keys to re-align the tree with the active folder after drag-drop wish 2 if you are in the tree, then e.g. F7 (create new file) doesn't make sense. If you need to manage files, press TAB to get into the folder pane, then CTRL+TAB to get back in the tree I am not clear about wish...
