SCROLL through your views, SCROLL through your files. Instantly access your 100 most recent files. Instant fold & unfold of outline sub levels. Scroll your columns, scroll the displayed folder tabs. Alt hotkey for 20 open pads, adjust column width instantly, instantly clear calendar lower pane, restore missing ecco shortcuts for missing features, non-destructive hotkey to phonebook, experimental but cool features like calendar column shrinker. experimental framed view for multi columns and folder info, and more and more."

* Scroll files, viewpads, columns

* List & jump to an active file or viewpad

* Instant 'Go Back' (and forth) between viewpads or open files

* Instant Ecco resizing

* Instant column adjustments

* Item browsing (fold & unfold)

* and more and more and more ....

Overview
Quote:

This tool does so incredibly much, the possibilities are at first overwhelming. Once you get it down, it all (or mostly) makes sense and is easy to use.

For example, the 1-2-3 keys are combined with the Windows key to activate

1 - Active Files
2 - Active ViewPads
3 - Recent files

Using Winkey + Shift for 1 and 2 jumps you back and forth with the most recently jumped to location. Makes it *very* easy to jump back and forth between notepads or files.

Using Control + Winkey + 3 allows you to search most recent.

If you prefix your search with ">" a 'Regular Expression' search will be performed. Ie. ">file[12]" will match file1 and file2. If you don't know about Regular Expressions, a normal search works great too!

Using Winkey + Shift and the arrow keys moves you around. Winkey + Shift UP and DOWN move you up and down between open files. (It's Nice!!). Winkey + Shift + LEFT and RIGHT move you left and right among the viewpads. (It's also Nice!!).

(Please stay away from 'experimental' features with live data!)

CLICK ON TRAY ICON FOR FULL INSTRUCTIONS.

again, this is a pre-release. There are over 70 features. Making a single feature 'universal' to work on all or even most ecco systems in use is a trick. With 70+ features very likely will be some bugs and issues on various systems. Feel free to report.
