Is there any way to configure xplorer2 so that when clicking on a folder in the Tree pane, that folder automatically expands to show all the first-level folders contained within it? This is the way that I have Windows Explorer working, and I am REALLY missing this functionality in xplorer2.
Please say that there's a way to do it. I really like xplorer2, but I have grown so used to this functionality in Windows Explorer, that it's absence from xplorer2 might be a deal breaker for me.
(And yes, I realize that you can double-click a folder in the Tree pane to get the behavior that I'm talking about, but there should at least be an option to make this work with a single-click the way that Windows Explorer can.)
--Thanks
Single-click expansion in Tree pane?

I think not at this time ...
For now, it's as you said:
d-click (or rightarrow)
... & Alt+rightarrow will explode all levels of the selected folder in the treepane
PS - I suspect the design thinking was "why bother providing a duplicate display" because you get that information presented in the active file pane. Bottom line is that it appears to be a user-preference issue for navigation -- no functionality is missing.
