Something like "Make this folder root" in the project file browser Follow

Hi there,

I'm not familiar with Komodo.

What this feature does (what are you trying to achieve)?

With 'Make this folder root' one can navigate into a directory and this directory shows up as the root element in the tree. Higher levels are simply not displayed which gives me a cleaner view. This is especially helpful when I need to work on a lower level for a longer time.

The order of the screenshots should be the other way around. On the second picture you see the menu and on the first after making a directory the root element.

I see.

It's not exactly the same (it's more than just that) but will achieve what you require:

1. "Settings | Scopes" -- create custom scope that would include only required files/folders.
2. Switch to a required scope in Project View panel (instead of default "Project" which shows all project files).

Andriy, thank you very much. Finally I find the scopes more handy than komodo's make this root.
