In other words, I’d like to configure Listary to ignore files and only list matching folders. Can I do this, and if so, how?

Also, is there a way to restrict the search to a given folder, regardless of what folder I start in? Thanks!

Sorry that the current version doesn’t support this.

if you want to search for folders only, you can create folders’ shortcuts, move all shortcuts to another folder and have listary to search only this folder.
