Re: Autofit the width of the Name column - Doesn't seem to work

Just tested it in 24.20.0200, everything looks good again. :tup:

Re: Autofit the width of the Name column - Doesn't seem to work

Sure.

On Version 24.20.0100 using list view even with "Tools | Customize List | Autosize Columns" enabled sometimes looks like this:

Re: Autofit the width of the Name column - Doesn't seem to work

Actually I think this very feature just got broken between 24.20.0 and 24.20.0100.

When I update I see shortened names, even with AutoSize enabled. When I downgrade to 24.20 everything appears to work like before.

Re: New Logo/Icon

I've tried all the tricks mentioned in the thread multiple times with no luck. I can delete the cache files and I can kill Explorer in the task manager, but I can't delete them after killing Explorer. Can you elaborate on how you accomplished that. Did you use Windows safe mode or some other proces...

Do you like the new application icon?

Just curious.

Feel free to elaborate on your vote, but keep it constructive, e.g. "I like/don't like the color scheme, shape, geometry, etc...".
Basically make it sound like you actually spend time thinking about it.

Re: New Logo/Icon

So, after spending more time on this.

It turns out that the Windows icon cache is just really persistent.
One has to kill all explorer.exe instances and then delete the cache files from "%userprofile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Explorer".

Re: New Logo/Icon

task bar - close, unpin, open, pin Doesn't work here on Win 10 Pro. I haven't done (another) restart yet, though. After multiple restarts it just does not work for me. When I unpin, the old icon shows fine again. As soon as I pin again, the icon switches again. Can someone provide a definitive way ...

Re: Minimized window misbehaviour on resolution change

Yes it is. :tup:

Re: Minimized window misbehaviour on resolution change

I just encountered this issue again on 21.00. From what I can tell XYplorer stops listening to resolution changes when it is minimized. Steps to reproduce (without Remote Desktop): 1. Change your Windows resolution to something lower than your monitor can do by default. 2. Open XYplorer and maximize...

Re: +++ BREAKING NEWS: XY Switches Programming Language +++

Tried, and it looks like double the speed of DrawString, still too slow for me. You know, XYplorer is fundamentally a painting, fast printing is essential. Then I learned that .NET has no AutoRedraw , and no Control arrays . And developers in the web are showing complicated ways how to emulate this...

TextRenderer.DrawText might be an option, that excludes usage in WinForms though.

Also, for the .NET part those benchmarks were done with a Release build and the debugger detached, right?

Re: +++ BREAKING NEWS: XY Switches Programming Language +++

Don't get too excited. I just made some performance tests: Simple printing of text to a surface (there is LOT of this happening in XYplorer all the time). VB6 is 7 times faster than .NET. That's it for me. I have seen enough. Should have done this testing earlier. :roll: Well it was to be expected ...

Re: +++ BREAKING NEWS: XY Switches Programming Language +++

Open 250,000 lines in Visual Studio, take a shower, make a coffee, and when you come back to the machine it might already be done with the loading. I'm not a turtle. Sounds like there something wrong with your setup. https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell This project has 500.548 lines of C# code...
