Not quite, that's just a tree including all the files. When you've got quite a lot of folders and also file within it becomes really tedious using the finder's views.
It's almost as if Apple has made decisions that deliberately hamper anyone that needs to get complex tasks done quickly. Not click-by-click slowness of the Mac UI. The Windows UI is a helluva lot faster to navigate, even more so with reliable keyboard shortcuts.
- rufus_t 14y agoWhen I'm on Windows, I frequently miss the instant side-by-side folder comparisons and the ability to select files in multiple folders simultaneously. Like everything else, it's a tradeoff. Plus, once you learn the traditional Mac shortcuts (right-left arrows to expand and contract, Command+down to narrow the view to one folder, Command-up to go back, type to select) it's pretty fast. Of course, for really complex tasks, a decent shell beats any GUI.
- shadesandcolour 14y agoThere's a way to set up finder so that everything is sorted by kind. This means that all the folders will but up near the top together which would help you most likely. I think the problem is the way that files and folders are treated in Unix systems versus the way that they are treated in Windows, but I could be wrong, it's been a while since we talked about windows in any of my classes.
- marssaxman 14y agoA "tree view including all the files" is a subcategory of "tree view". I'm not sure what it would mean to not include all the files, but apparently you are expecting some Windows-specific behavior here, and thinking that it is part of the fundamental nature of a "tree view".
