Always wanted to have a panel that opens up common InDesign locations.

Good weekend, ladies and gentlemen.

Always wanted to have a panel that opens up common InDesign locations.
It could be like ID's own panel: hover, hide. It will be amazing.
Customizable to add paths, remove paths.
Including where scripts, grep, shortcuts are stored.

You could even set the most recent working directory.

Did you ever try the Quick Apply panel? It's the lightening bolt in the top right corner - and you can type in InDesign commands and they will show up - and there's a drop down list to add/remove what features show up.

It doesn't do everything you want

You can always post feature requests here

In this case "paths" don't mean shapes / objects in InDesign.

You can always create a folder on your drive - or Desktop - and place there shortcuts to other locations - like bookmarks in the Browser.

Hi Great. Robert at ID-Tasker 
You're the most active, you're always passionate.
You represent the future.

I keep posting, maybe Adobe will see it.

It's bedtime. Good night.

As I said you can make feature requests and the best place is the link I shared 

No ideas you only wanted to make a folder with shortcuts to file locations. 

Not really sure if I'd use it, rarely go into these types of folders except the script folder, and you can access that from the scripts panel with reveal in finder.

I am using radial menu, fully customized, you can add you favorite scripts, favorite tools, idms files, templates.....anything, windows only.

Hi DTPtutorialyCZ-L.Zalesky

Thank you very muck.

For reasons that are well known, I can't access Yutobe
I don't know why. Is there a lot of bad stuff on it? I don't know about that.

Do you have any other way to share?

this video is for some kind of specialized option in Photoshop as far as I can tell...

[DTPtutorialyCZ-L.Zalesky]

Nope, i adjusted this free autohotkey script for indesign purposes.

Thank you very much.
Just that it says I can't download the file and I'm registered to the site.

You need to learn to spend more time searching if you want to move up to the next level, that's the first step 🙂

Well... InDesign did offer such a panel, a few versions ago !! Mini Bridge 😄

https://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/indesign_cc_mini_bridge_faq.html?x-product=Helpx%2F1.0.0&x-product-...

But, as you can read: it has been removed since 2015 (it was based on Flash technology) and Adobe was touting their Creative Cloud Libraries enormously and rightfully so. Some one developed some alternative plug-in to mimic it, but I can't find that one either anymore.

Nevertheless: to still find your way, literally, you can jump-start Bridge from within InDesign, by using the File – Browse in Bridge (or simple quick swap to Bridge with any other system shortcut) and use some pre-set Favorite Folders and Views from there. Or is this too low-key to cater for a scripting, tinkering, fine-tuning power-user like you ? 😉

Perhaps I am an expert in “problem finding”.
You are the real experts in problem solving.

[Eugene Tyson]

I don't think these are problems - these are just ways you want to work which really has little to do with InDesign other than a panel that doesn't exist and probably won't ever exist.

[dublove]

Maybe you're right.
There are some things that Adobe is still slowly changing.
You have to trust Adobe.
