I'm in LR6 trying to import images from a subfolder at the bottom of a folder tree. I'm able to get a vertical scrollbar that allows me to get to the level in the "main import source panel" where that subfolder is. How do I get a horizontal scrollbar, to get to the subfolder?

There is NO horizontal scroll of the directory tree which I feel is a POOR design. If the folder you want disappears in the tree because it is too deep you can just click the up-down arrows next to Select a source (it may say something else if you already used the tree) and then Other Source... in the dropdown and use your operating system file manager to get to the correct directory.

Thank you, As for poor design. I don't know that I'd go quite that far in terms of the overall program itself, but it's definitely a critical omission.

I have been using Adobe Lightroom (now called Classic) since version 1.0 After YEARS of development they still have no way to scroll left and right in the Folders Window. This is nearly unforgivable. I am really tired of not being able to see folder names unless I use the operating system.
Come on Adobe. How tough is it to either offer a scroll-bar or a free-floating expandable window so we can see folder names?
