Re: Drag & Drop from Windows Explorer

Thanks for the reply. Both apps were launched by me logged in as Admin but I didn't explicitly launch XY using "Run as Admin". I have repeated the exercise launching XY as Admin and it fails in the same way...

Drag & Drop from Windows Explorer

Hi Don I'm using XY 21.10.0008 and am experiencing problems dragging and dropping files from Windows Explorer into XY. Both D&D Right click and normal D&D both seem to fail with a no entry sign shown in XY. I don't recall changing any settings which might affect this, so perhaps its a bug? A...

Re: Annoying Find Files bug

OK, well I've just checked again with the current beta and the behaviour still exists. I think what is happening is that it is only searching the highlighted folder rather than the whole structure. Here is a gif showing the behaviour:

Re: dark theme

BTW, if all you folks are so happy to see the dark mode coming, why not nurture my motivation by adding a recommendation at slant ?! Every click pays a little bit of the rent. Note that their algorithm likes it when you do it *again*. Show some liveliness and continued support. How deep is your lov...

Multiple option in Contents tab of Find Files

Hi all, I regularly use the Contents tab of Find Files to search for files of various sorts containing a particular string. Is there a way to search for multiple options using this tab. For example if I wanted to search for files containing Word X or Word Y? I've checked the manual and there doesn't...

Background Search

Hi there,

A quick question about searching, is it possible to have a search running in the background (on a tab) whilst continuing to work in other tabs/panes? Each time I try something the search stops. Any advice gratefully received!

thanks

Re: Keyboard shortcuts seems to have stopped working

Thanks for the reply. Neither shortcut was assigned correctly, which is odd. If I turn off custom keyboard shortcuts everything works fine. I'll do that for the time being.

Hi there, I am having a problem where having upgraded to 17.30 that some keyboard shortcuts have stopped working. It seems to be isolated to XY on my machine. For example the Enter key no longer opens the currently highlighted director, backspace no longer goes up a directory. Anyone else seeing thi...
