XYplorer Beta Club

Is there any way to somehow re-label, say, "New Items" to "New Files", or something? I know it sounds silly, perhaps, but I always have to hover a second or two because I never remember which does which by the title, either "New" or "New Items". Or perhaps eve...

Right click the tab in your tabset that you want set as the default and check "Default tab". XY will use the default tab when you are in any location in the tree or list that do not have a "lock location" or "Locked home zone" tab. Which doesn't necessarily mean when y...

I must have XYplorer set to open last viewed tab because each time I change tabsets, it's on a different tab. But what I think will work much better, especially since I have sooooo many tabsets <g>, is to have a default tab for some of the tabsets. I did a forum search but didn't find anything perti...

Or maybe just remove the keyboard shortcut for "Toggle Active Pane" so that you can't accidentally switch them? Thanks! I _finally_ got around to having a few moments where I could sit down and figure this out and managed to take out the keyboard shortcuts. Tested out just fine. So no mor...

This must be something simple but it's weird. Keyboard shortcuts don't seem to be working and I don't know what I did to stop them ... it was an accidental thing, that's for sure. So, i.e., F2 doesn't start process for renaming, F5 won't refresh, DEL won't delete. I even deleted the KS.dat file, I t...

Thanks!

There is a toolbar button to toggle between the two panes and it shows a number 1 or 2 depending on which one is active. This would certainly be the easier way to switch back to pane 1. There is even a standard shortcut to toggle the active pane with Ctrl+Alt+F10. Thanks, will check it out, that Ct...

You may want to change this setting: Configuration | Tabs and Panes | Dual Pane | Tab key == Tab through everything except inactive pane and probz this too: Configuration | Tabs and Panes | Dual Pane | Always keep 1st pane visible Wow, thanks! Really appreciate it, man! That should stop my occasion...

You might want to check the shortcut you use to start XY, it might contain the path you can't get rid of. Thanks! Turned out it was accidental key presses switching me somehow from Pane 1, the default, to Pane 2, which I couldn't see (as it seemed to be hidden), because I don't use dual pane. So as...

No clue if that's what you're looking for but: - Switch to pane 1 - Menu - Panes - Dual Pane I kept at it and found a solution to 1 issue, it's because I never used the dual pane feature, so you were right on the money, there. So I just kept digging online despite the hopelessness and stumbled upon...

I hope I can explain this well in the correct terminology, but I've been having troubles with a pesky tabset that I can't get rid of so I'm sure it's related to something I must not be aware of. I have a tabset that supposedly is active in Pane 2. But I can't open it because of that. When I moved th...

I dl some time back the wonderful Session Manager script and have read over the last few days some posts about saving tabsets and it just comes down to needing something much more basic that I don't know how to create myself. Haven't found any code and I'm just not good at writing code. Is there a w...

... I've spent a lot of time recently and again this morning checking to see if there is a Linux version of XYplorer (Linux's file managers are pretty bad), esp. since XYplorer is the best file manager I've ever used in 30+ years!! There's no mention in the But page or the Download page and the only...

I'm finding that as my laptop is getting older and, lately especially, really, really slowing down, that I'm using keyboard shortcuts more than ever esp. as they get me almost back to regular speed despite the loss of speed. I was trying to get the tabs in XYplorer to work more like my browser's but...

Hi! New to the forum <g>. I'm trying XYplorer out and have been extremely favourably impressed so far! I've tried many, many Windows Explorer replacements over the years but this one is turning out to be the best of the bunch so far! So this new box with crap Win10 is turning out to not be so bad an...
