# Understanding file browser focus

By default, Transmit shows two file browsers side-by-side. However, most commands can only be applied to one file browser or the other at any given time. The file browser that will receive the next command is said to be "focused".

#### Identifying the focused file browser

The currently focused file browser will show a highlighted segment in the path bar.

In this example, the file browser on the right has focus.

#### Focusing the other file browser

You can focus the other file browser by clicking anywhere inside it.

Alternatively, choose View > Focus on Local or View > Focus on Remote.
