What's new in Default Folder X 4.4.8

  • Default Folder X's contextual menus are once again available in all Open and Save dialogs. Right-click or Control-click on any file in a file dialog to rename, delete, get info, or zip it.
  • Updated to work with all Open and Save dialogs in the latest version of Google Chrome.
  • Fixed a bug that caused file dialogs to hang when you used OS X's New Folder dialog.
  • Worked around a bug in OS X that could result in Default Folder X going to the wrong folder when the original was not available.
  • Corrected a bug that would cause the path popup menu in some Open dialogs to overlap the Spotlight search field.
  • Fixed a problem that prevented Default Folder X from opening its preferences on some machines.
  • Added support for DesktopShelves and QuickTime Player X.
  • Added IgnoreTheseFolders.plist inside Default Folder X to allow additional folders to be ignored when Default Folder X builds its recent folder list. Any folder that matches or is nested within the folders listed in the plist file will not be included in your Recent Folders menu. To add more folders, modify the file that's located here:
    ~/Library/PreferencePanes/Default Folder X.prefPane/Contents/Resources/Default Folder X.bundle/Contents/Resources/IgnoreTheseFolders.plist

As a long-term Mac user, i have installed demo software beyond count. Yours is one of the few that I've seen the worth in investing in.
- Daniel Kennish
It's one of those programs that I wonder how I lived without for so long. Before I was constantly clicking through directories every time I wanted to open, save or attach a file. Now I do almost everything in just a few clicks.
