In finder command T fill add the folder to the side bar. Is there a remove sidebar file folder shortcut... And if not could someone make it ? Or would that be to hard to do ?
I was thinking maybe shift commad T

For that to make sense, you first would need a shortcut to set keyboard focus to the sidebar.

come again ? Finder already has command+T ... and it puts it at the bottom always. So logically something like command+alt+T or whatever would remove the bottom one. I mean otherwise my even give the option of command + T ??

How's it going to know which one to remove? That doesn't really make sense... just drag it out of the sidebar

That only makes sense if you treat the sidebar like a stack. Which it's not. Thusly, it does not make sense.

yes it would It would just remove the bottom one. Try it, it always adds the new comman T selected file to the bottom. So shift command t would just remove the bottom one. Simple....

Would I be having the same example if sidebar shortcut did not exsit at all ??/ I am confused why this is not easily viewable.

Yes, but Command-T doesn't add the last item in the window to the sidebar, it adds the one you have selected.

What for? You can't navigate the sidebar with the keyboard. So all you could do is add a folder to the sidebar, do nothing, then remove it again. Why? You can get the same effect by just not adding it in the first place.

For that to make sense you first would need a keyboard shortcut to set keyboard focus to the sidebar.
