Autosize columns automatically?

Can someone tell me how to set columns to autosize automatically? Yes, I know I can right click and choose autosize, but that only applies to the current view. Yes, I know I can right click and define the current column sizes as the default, however, that seens to set the size of the columns to that...

Re: Can't view NEF in preview mode, or see NEF thumbnails

Thank you! That did it,, both in XY and Win Explorer.

Can't view NEF in preview mode, or see NEF thumbnails

From everything I have read, XY should support Nikon's NEF RAW image format.. however, when I try to view a folder of NEF files, I do not see the images in the thumbnail view. Furthermore, if I try to preview any of the images, I get "cannot decode" error message. All my NEF images are rig...

Can't view Acronis TIB archives

I use Acronis True Image backup, and it creates archives with the TIB file extension. Normally, if I want to view and/or restore a file from the TIB archive, it is just a matter of double-clicking on the TIB file and it opens the archive file in Win Explorer. When I use XYplorer, I can navigate the ...

Re: Apply button in Configuration?

Ok.. well I am new here.. I did search for 'apply' before posting and did not find anything. Too bad.. I thought it would be very useful to try some settings and immediately see the results.. the way it is now, takes an extra step to close the dialog to see the effects then re-open it again to chang...

Apply button in Configuration?

Would it be possible to add an APPLY button to the Configuration dialog? Right now, after making a change, our only option is to hit OK which will apply the config changes, but also exit the config dialog. With an APPLY button, we can try the changes to see what they look like without exiting the co...

Re: Tab Header Colors

Yep, that's it.. thanks. Don't know how I missed it.. was on that settings page many times. So, I set the inactive pane color, however now is only displays this color on alternate lines and looks gawd-awful.. probably because I had set an option to shade alternate lines, but now I just can't find wh...

Re: Tab Header Colors

But you know you can define that inactive shade color in Config, right? The Dual Pane setting simply activates it. Ok, so you can't define active as bright as you want but you can better hide the inactive one... Well, let's see... there are only two config options I can see that affect this.. 1) Co...

Re: Tab Header Colors

Did you try Settings - Dual Pane - [x] Shade inactive pane? Yes, the inactive pane is shaded, but so lightly it is not immediately obvious. Still does not address the tab colors.. I would prefer to make my active pane really a bright color so it is obvious to me which I am working with. Actually, I...

Tab Header Colors

When working with two panes, I would like to have the active pane highlighted in some way for me.. I notice there is a config option to set the active (open) tab colors, as well as other tab colors (background and text).. however, when I set a color for the background and text of the open tab, both ...

Network drive vs computer drive

I notice that if I hover my cursor pointer over a file, it shows a pop-up box with info about the file or folder.. ie, name, type, size, etc. However, this only works for hard drives directly connected to my computer.. it does not work with networked drives. I have a WD MyBookLive network drive, and...
