To display the contents of a root directory (or drive), select a root directory
from the Root Directories
drop-down box located in the top left
corner of the local pane. This
will change the working directory to the selected root directory and the contents
of the root directory are displayed in the directory list table.
Most computers
will have just one root directory, for e.g.
Desktop
on Windows
and "/"
on Mac OS X and other UNIX type systems.
To display the contents of a directory that is listed in the directory list
table, just double click on that directory or right click on the directory and,
choose Open
from the context menu.
To traverse one level up in the directory tree, click on the Up
button located in the top-right corner of the local
pane.
If you
have a filter set up, only files that match your filter
criteria are displayed in the directory list table. All newly opened sessions
will have a default filter set to exclude hidden files and folders.
