Re: Folder aliases broken in CopyTo/MoveTo (64 bit)

Thank you! I do think it worked previously in 32 bit version, and also (though my memory isn't what it used to be!) in earlier 64 bit.

It will be nice, either way, to be able to use it. I may be the only one, but I (previously) used that feature nearly every day!

Re: The Hamburger - cannot work it out!

One menu? If you mean that only one can be defined and is shared everywhere, no. Each button can have it's own but the breadcrumb bar can only have one So what's new is that you can now hang a menu off a User Button? And the scripting commands popupmenu and popupnested? OK, I get it (at last!). Tha...

Re: The Hamburger - cannot work it out!

1.png Right click it^^ Ah, fair enough. I was thrown by "The Hamburger is a user-defined popup menu that can be used in various locations or contexts" on the release notes page. So, it can be used in various locations or contexts, but it's basically actually just one menu, fired off the H...

Re: The Hamburger - cannot work it out!

See https://www.xyplorer.com/release_23.00.php . Yesterday's date on the update. Your reply did not help me understand how to add Hamburger menus. I have read the help file, but thanks for the RTFM insight. Launched today? It exists since over 4 years Hamburger The Hamburger is a user-defined popup ...

The Hamburger - cannot work it out!

The Hamburger feature launched today sounds interesting. I get the examples and can probably work out the syntax to use from the examples and help file. However, I'm completely flummoxed about where in the UI I get to actually make a Hamburger menu. As far as I can see, this is not explained on the ...

Re: More information on new features!

Quick Search
dialog *only* affects searches triggered from this dialog. Other Quick
Searches are not affected and run normally.
Thank you. Yes, that makes a lot of sense to me! (Not that that is a yardstick of anything! :biggrin: )

Re: More information on new features!

(1) - fair enough (2) - how is the normal user to know that unpressing the button on the F3 dialog should determine the behaviour of the Ctrl-click context menu? Always the developer's decision, I do understand. I am just a stupid user. I was just trying to give helpful feedback. I won't respond any...

Re: More information on new features!

The question is: Why did you press that button in my screenshot?
I didn't knowingly press it!

My interpretation that this was a completely new way of quick searching, not tied to any existing functionality. Seemed nice and clean and simple.

Re: More information on new features!

The fix is actually just a change in the caption: Hmmmm.. if you say so! :veryconfused: From an outsider's point of view, I just see the context menu and the option to quickly search for items matching the Ctrl+clicked cell. Which is good. As an outsider (who's used XYplorer since 2008) I didn't se...

Re: More information on new features!

You probably did not see the note "Page still in progress. Please check in a little later." I apologise. I didn't. Although why not upload everything concurrently to avoid the confusion? If Quick Search works for you then I must be doing something wrong. But please check out a small movie...

More information on new features!

I find the info on new features, e.g. today's at https://www.xyplorer.com/release_22.30.php could be made much more helpful. On today's release, for example, it doesn't explain how to access the new cell context menu and I'm having to search through the new help file to work it out. (It's pressing C...

#MeToo.

I am also getting false positives on another application I've used for years.

Really annoying!

Re: Live Filter Box - won't accept full stop character?

Turns out the key is assigned as keyboard shortcut: Miscellaneous / Tree / Fully Expand #1011 Numpad Multiply If you remove it the key will work as you expected it. OTOH, I was surprised that this key (which only affects the Tree) works while the focus is in the List. I think I will change this. If...
