File Transfer Window, File Bar

The File bar contains buttons that can be used to perform the most common file management tasks. The File bar is dynamically created, so it cannot be customized like the other toolbars.

Note: It is possible to have the File bar trimmed down so that it shows less buttons and leaves more room for the favorite folders lists. The File bar with the wide folder view displays only the Show/Hide Local Folders, Local Home, and Up buttons above the Local View, and the corresponding Show/Hide Remote Folders, Remote Home, and Up buttons above the Remote View. See Section Global File Transfer Settings for more information.

Figure : The File bar is specific to the file transfer window

Up

Example: You have a directory called home and it has a subdirectory called mail. If you are currently viewing the mail folder and click Up, the focus moves to the home folder.
