Thanks Sammay, good information to put in the back pocket.

Thank Don, I'll have to recognize that in my ThumbnailMaintenance script in some way. I imagine I'll have to make sure the user is not in the folder in which they're deleting the associated thumbnail database. I can't see that it should affect the refreshing or building of thumbnails in any way. Tha...

Hi totmad1, I must say, you've got a darn good handle on the myriad of touchy IM parameters. :) :appl: IM's a powerful program though. I did have problems though running your recently added change for percentage trim - left and right. Stepping through it didn't tell me much other than the fact that ...

Hi jdev21, I've been using the folder.jpg trick to display the folder, but your montage file called folder.jpg sounds like a nice idea especially if done on the fly on multiple folders recursively. I certainly would want to do it manually. Please post when you get it done or ask if you need any help...

Hi Don, I have noticed something that wasn't the case before the memory management changes even with the earlier fix. Now, if you are in the folder for which you've created thumbs, you can't delete the associated "dbits " file. That never was the case, even though the thumbs displayed in t...

Cool...they did it!

Hi Don, just to make sure we're on the same page, we were referring to scripted menus not popupmenu. Currently the help file states... "Caption|Icon|State : Label" Script where State Default = 1 State Checked = 2 State Disabled = 4 Currently, the "default" which is the bolded men...

the caption must also be focused so users know hitting Enter is going to trigger that So maybe the "preselect" would have the bold highlighted option built-in. As it is now the bold option can only be used for one menu item. If it would be combined with the new state (e.g., "8")...

Sammay, an option for pre-focus and run on enter would be a nice idea for scripted menus and would probably be well-used. Don, maybe instead of one of used "states" (e.g. Bold, Checked, Disabled), like the very seldom used "checked" or a new state, could be a default to act as ex...

<get drop> stays set until the script invoked by the drop is completely finished. There is no way to reset it actively. Thanks Don, it didn't look like there was since I tried a number of different ways which obviously didn't work. I figured I'd ask anyway just in case there was a work-around. Than...

The help file states that... The <get drop> variable is cleared after the script is processed, so it cannot be used after the drop event is completed. I used <get drop> recently in a script to initiate an action - when a file or folder is dropped on the CTB, the script recognizes the drop and runs a...

This script, ExpandableCTB.xys [v1.0] uses the technique brought to us by serendipity in ExpandDriveButton. Instead of using expanding drives, the user can have various CTBs, either custom buttons or built-in XY buttons. I've had this script working and have been using it since serendipity wrote the...

Help file for: inputselect (header, listdata, [separator="|"], [style=1], [cancel], [width=600], [height=400], [windowcaption]) states, 128 = Return selected index. If nothing is selected, 0 (zero) is returned. This statement is incorrect. When using return index "128", if the 1s...

Like <curpath> when a list item is not highlighted and <curitem> when it is. No, that's not true.

Thanks Don. I haven't seen any of the issues noted in the first post since v14.50.0206.
