Resolve a Bookmark

Open a Bookmark Resolver window using the  Open Resolver  command in the  Window  menu, copy a  Bookmark  in Base-64 format into the upper text view, then click on the  Resolve  button or press Return to see the full path to that item, its volfs path, and a detailed listing of its contents in the lowest text view. Click on the  Analyse  button (or press Return) instead to display the detailed listing of its contents without resolving it into paths.

If you don’t have a Bookmark but want to do this with a Finder Alias instead, click on the  Open file as Base-64  button, select the Alias and click  Open . The data in that Alias file will be read into the top view in Base-64 form, and a detailed listing of its contents will be shown in the lowest text view. Click on the  Resolve  button or press Return to see the full path to that item and a detailed listing in the lowest text view.

When resolving a Bookmark or Alias, if the  Refresh data  box is ticked, the action of resolving it will update the data in the Bookmark or Alias. If the box is not ticked (default), resolving it won’t result in it being updated.

After you have resolved a Bookmark or Alias, click on the  Reveal in Finder  button to find a resolved Bookmark/Alias in a Finder window, or its  Preview  button to preview the document using QuickLook.
