Easy config of user menu left en right panels

Hi,

I use the user menu very often and have menu options to open source and target locations using:
lua: if PPanel.Left then Keys("Tab") end -- if we want the source to be on the left side
lua: Panel.SetPath(0, [[source_location]]) -- source directory
lua: Panel.SetPath(1, [[target_location]]) -- target directory

It would be nice to have this more user friendly by adding a two field option where you can add a source and a target location somehow

What's the ideal workflow you'd like to have?

As UserMenu options you have 'Insert command' and 'Insert Menu'.
I was thinking of a third option 'Insert Folder'. When you activate this the left and right panels are default filled in a source folder field and a target folder field. You have the option to change these folders and the possibility to save the settings of only one panel.

User Menu is just a wrong way to solve this. There were a couple of plug-ins/scripts which provide this functionality. I hope other forum members will give the links.

Can you please elaborate how Named Folders Lite can be used to set paths to both panels?

sorry, "Named Folders Lite" set only one panel.
"Named Folders" able to set both, if my memory serves me.
