Re: Renaming a folder in the tree and switching to another tab discards new name

Yeah, the struggle with configs is real. But we love XYplorer for it's configurability.
Thanks for fixing it so quickly, it's working well now 🙂

Re: Renaming a folder in the tree and switching to another tab discards new name

Strange. I tried on Windows 10 with x64 v28.10.0501 and Windows 11 with x64 v28.10.0204:

It doesn't matter whether I create a new folder or try to rename an existing one, or where the folder is located and where the other tab points to.

[Fixed in v28.10.0503] Renaming a folder in the tree and switching to another tab discards new name

How to replicate: - Create a new folder anywhere, and name it "test" in the tree (not the list!) - While the folder name is still in editing mode, click on another list tab What I expected to happen: Leaving editing mode by clicking on another tab should act as confirmation for the new na...

Re: Problem selecting new files

Oh, a radical block sounds radical 😱 Any chance of getting some crazy multithreaded asynchronous magic sometime in the future? (far future, no pressure) Or maybe an XYpu accelerator PCIe card? 😁 But seriously, I think it would be acceptable for slow columns to update at a slower speed than the fast ...

Re: disable/remove horizontal scroll bar in treeview?

TreeNoHoriScroll=2 works like a charm. Thank you so much for listening and implementing a fix!

Re: Problem selecting new files

There is no need to test my configuration as the behaviour is the same in a fresh installation. Of course you have to add the Custom size circles column first. I was able to observe both, the inconsistency between what the user sees and how files are actually ordered internally during a list refresh...

Re: disable/remove horizontal scroll bar in treeview?

I, as a local amateur, deem vertical scrolling as very important, and it is not easily triggered involuntarily. My tree is ~95 characters wide. This is enough to display my "primary" folders and subfolders. Usually, only the very last folder in the hierarchy can have a very long name, but ...

Re: disable/remove horizontal scroll bar in treeview?

Dragging very fast works, theoretically. But I have to move my mouse extremely fast and then stop it immediately, which is very awkward to do. I am not fast enough all the time when I try, and I would simply forget to do it too often to actually work. If it is too much work to implement, it's okay n...

Re: disable/remove horizontal scroll bar in treeview?

Yes. Dragging files/folders from the list to the tree will inevitably scroll the tree to the right. Most of the time, I don't need to see the rightmost part of folder names in the tree. Sometimes, it would be nice to scroll to the right manually, which TreeNoHoriScroll doesn't allow for.

Re: Problem selecting new files

Oh ja, sorry 🙂 The batch script was run in a command prompt to simulate changes to the file system by an external program: :loop ren test.txt test.bat TIMEOUT /T 5 ren test.bat test.txt TIMEOUT /T 5 GOTO loop The Custom size circles were introduced in v17.80.0001 and I use a slightly modified versio...

Re: disable/remove horizontal scroll bar in treeview?

Could this tweak be tweaked by disabling horizontal scrolling (e.g. by the mouse cursor being next to the border) but still showing the scroll bar for manual/deliberate scrolling?

Re: Problem selecting new files

Alright, hearing that slow columns can be problematic made it easier to capture the bug. I made a test folder with some files and started a batch script that renames "test.txt" to "test.bat" and back. The recorded GIFs are best viewed with a video player like MPC-HC, frame by fra...

Re: Problem selecting new files

I have the same problem on my NVMe M.2 SSD. Sometimes, when creating or deleting a new file, XYplorer will redraw the list and display a different file where the deleted or created file is supposed to be or where the mouse cursor currently is. Worse, when another program is writing to the current fo...

Re: Permanent Deletion dialogue opens in background when background processing is enabled for deletions

It doesn't happen very often, but I do occasionally delete folders with many thousands of files ... Android stuff is messy.
On an SSD we are talking seconds. On my NAS, deleting that many files can block XYplorer for several minutes. Yes, the dreaded network drives again :biggrin:

Re: Permanent Deletion dialogue opens in background when background processing is enabled for deletions

I see, damn. Damn Microsoft.

So, background processing does have nothing to do with it? Because Shift-deletion works without quirks without background processing.
