~~Title: OnAfterFolderChange ~~
<pageheader/>

The **OnAfterFolderChange** event can be implemented by a [[:scripting:script_add-ins|script add-in]] that wants to be notified after a new folder has been read in a tab. Use the **[[onbeforefolderchange|OnBeforeFolderChange]]** event to receive notification //before// the folder is read.

$$ (#)**Method Name:**
$$ OnAfterFolderChange
$$ (#)**Argument Type:**
$$ **[[..:scripting_objects:afterfolderchangedata|AfterFolderChangeData]]** 
$$ (#)**Return Type:**
$$ //bool//
$$ (#)**Description:**
$$ The **AfterFolderChangeData.tab** property indicates the tab and the **path** property the path of the folder. The **result** property indicates the success or failure of the folder read.

If **result** is **False** (i.e. the folder was not successfully read) then you can return **True** from this event to stop Opus from going back to the previous folder (which is what normally happens when a folder read fails). If **result** is **True** then the return value from this event is ignored.
