Editing The Places Dropdown In Ubuntu

I wanted to add a folder link to the Places dropdown menu bar. It took me a little time to find it so I thought I’d share.

  1. Open a File Browser
  2. Make sure the Side Pane is viewable. If not then select View->Side Pane or hit F9
  3. The Places, not Tree, History, …, needs to be selected in the Side Pane.
  4. Just drag the folder to the Side Pane where you want it to be added to Places

Removal of an item is done by right clicking on the item and choosing Remove.
