XYplorer Beta Club

Hi and welcome,

Do you use View > Views? The options with Tiles and Thumbnails don't give you what you want?

PDF

Which PDF viewer do you have installed?

Which file types (e.g. .PDF, .DOCX) give this problem?

For PDF preview please see here.

I can confirm the problem with MPG files, which is odd as it is AFAIK an old well-known format.

The toolbar has a button for Show Preview Pane which you can add by right-clicking the toolbar, selecting Customize Toolbar and then search for "preview".

But where do i find the set max size of folder size cache? or even to disable it, cant seem to find that option.

Tools > Configuration > Tree and List > Cache Folder Sizes.

As regards cache size, you can tweak:

On my (relatively recent) config no keyboard shortcuts are defined for it, but you can do so yourself by opening Tools > Customize Keyboard Shortcuts, and then clicking Jump, which allows you to search for commands. By filtering on "open" you can easily find the two commands you're looking for.

Going by the command line switches available to XYplorer, this isn't possible unfortunately.

XYcopy allows background processing. Custom Copy is XYplorer's alternative copy/move method which offers additional functionality.

I see from reading the Help that the move is passed to XYcopy which processes it in the background; however, the UI is not updated, even after a period of time. Is that by design? XYcopy should show a progress window. Do you have Tools > Configuration > File Operations > Custom Copy Operations > Co...

Do you have Tools > Configuration > File Operations > Enable background processing, enabled?

I can confirm the behaviour you're seeing. According to the help file:

Any file operations triggered by drag and drop to XYplorer from another application are not spawned to XYcopy.

...which seemingly means no options available, unfortunately.

Do you have Tools > Configuration > Safety Belts, Network > Confirm drag and drop, and/or Confirm copy and move operations, enabled? If so, does disabling both options help?

This page for more information.

The official way seems to be Tools > List Management > Find Files: Name.
