XYplorer Beta Club

A bit late for a reply - but I use "Bulk Rename Utility" a brilliant, very comprehensive and best of all free program that once installed appears in the right click menu of Xyplorer. Although scripts can do the job this program is far, far better and much simpler to use.

Thank you. I had looked through all the commands but obviously had missed the syntax for "copy tab". I was thinking about panes not tabs. There is no problem in reactivation the "now inactive pane" as the same command just flips control back.

I have just had to rebuild my PC and lost all the xyplorer settings in the process (stupid I know but I put it down to age). I used to have a toolbar button that copied the open tab in the active pane to the inactive panes. Basically make the same file view appear in both panes. I do not remember if...

Thank . I knew it had to be simple but I just did not think of looking there

Thank you for the pointer to the setting in the help file. I had not thought of looking in that menu item !! re Have you tried "goto F:/"? Putting that into the left click of a custom button does not work. I have played around with different formats of this command and also #531 which is t...

Getting older and using a high resolution monitor I am finding it difficult to see the letters in the default drive icons in the toolbar. I would like to use a plain capital letter instead. It does not appear to be possible to change the default icon so I guess I need a custom button but cannot get ...

Thank you for the quick replies. Both of your suggestions work OK as does the original one I written. I had closed the PC down and had to reopen it to try these. That may have cleared something out of the system. Computers - will they ever catch on? I will continue working my way through the script ...

Stuck indoor I thought I would try to learn XYplorers script language and perhaps some regex. Just for something to do. My first attemps worked OK but then I wanted to rename a ebook file with a name like FILENAME (epub).epub I can remove the epub inside he brackets but how do I remove the string (e...

I am not sure if this is the correct section of the forum for this but I will start here. I normally use dual panes but occasionally switch to single pane mode using the "dual pane" button. When in single pane mode I expand the first (name) column but when switching back to dual pane mode ...

Is it possible to edit the name of the built in toolbar buttons ?
