Introducing Tree Navigation: A Bird's-Eye View of Your Folders in Hightail

We’re not stopping at Breadcrumb Navigation! To further enhance your navigation experience, we’re introducing Tree Navigation, a feature that gives you a complete overview of your folder structure—just like the familiar file explorer in Windows.

What Is Tree Navigation?

Tree Navigation displays your folder structure in a collapsible, hierarchical format. Located on the side panel of your workspace, it lets you view all parent and child folders at a glance. With a simple click, you can expand or collapse folders to navigate through your workspace seamlessly.

How It Works

The tree structure provides an intuitive way to browse your folders. Here’s how it functions:

• Expandable Nodes: Click the arrow next to a folder to reveal its subfolders.
• Direct Access: Click any folder in the tree to open it instantly.
• Custom Views: Collapse sections you don’t need to focus on specific folders.

Key Benefits

1. Holistic View: See your entire folder hierarchy at a glance.
2. Effortless Navigation: Quickly jump between folders without retracing steps.
3. Faster Workflows: Manage complex spaces with multiple subfolders more efficiently.

How Breadcrumbs and Tree Navigation Work Together

While Breadcrumb Navigation helps you track your current path, Tree Navigation gives you a complete overview. Together, they make navigating your folders more intuitive and efficient.
