ET and Anatoliy, To drag items, if vo commands don't work, use the mouse. ET, this is used to "hide" folders--just drag them off the favorites bar. To drag, move to the folder, put the mouse on it with vo-cmd-f5, then lock the mouse down with vo-shift-cmd-space. Move to (or from) the favorites bar, interact, put the mouse there with vo-cmd-f5 again, and release it with another vo-shift-cmd-space. Use the same commands to move folders around in the favorites bar, to get them in the order you want. Remember that the command key with a number will open that folder--cmd-1 opens the first folder, cmd-2 opens the second, and so on. ET, I'm not sure what those buttons do, sorry. > On Jan 12, 2016, at 06:37, Anatoliy Popko <[email protected]> wrote: > > Alex, > > Thanks for the thought (and, for that matter, your Applevis podcasts - > concise and straight to the point). > > Could you, please, describe: just how would you edit favorits folder list? > > Didn't find appropriate menu items, built-in help is mouse-user oriented. > Tried conventional drag and drop (VO+, and VO+.), didn't quite work out. > > Thanks! > > -- > Best regards, > Anatoliy D.
