On switch to single-pane, remove (don't expand) [option]

I almost always have two panes open. And every time I switch to single-pane it's just to make XY smaller so I can access other things on my screen. Currently, F10 removes the inactive list pane but makes the active list pane fill the whole existing list area. To reduce XY's footprint (my actual goal...

Re: Calculate audio playtime

I originally downloaded and ran v0.2, which still works. In Dec 2020 replaced it with v.03 but I'm not sure I ever tried this new one. Symptom with v0.3: With one 7min 13 sec MP3 file selected, stepping through the script seems to show that everything is fine right through the final FormatDuration f...

Re: Virtual Folder Prefx

For the two (?) release notes where the "virtual" prefix was originally announced - maybe add a note that it later got changed. People will refer to those for usage.

Re: Quick Access, Recent Files

Win10 x64 and the current beta .0413: Entering "%USER%\Recent" in the address bar works OK now. I no longer get Error 9. XY navigates to my "C:\Users\[Username]\Recent" folder. It displays this in the List with purple title bar "Virtual Folder: Recent". That folder FYI ...

Re: Quick Access, Recent Files

With this .0411 beta I get the same "Subscript out of range" error when I enter "%USER%\Recent" in the address bar.

Let me disable items in "Rename Preview" window

Despite my breathtaking skill in crafting rename expressions, I will admit to many occasions when it's not quite right. I discover this after I've selected a bunch of files to rename and have moved to the "Rename Preview" window. To fix this I must note down which files shouldn't be change...

Re: Auto-rotate preview

If you haven't already... see if my thread addresses any of your concerns. I was being confused by Windows "Rotate right" and "Rotate left".

Portable device pre-processing... comment

From the notes for v23.70.0207: "Portable Devices: Now you can stop a slow pre-processing operation by pressing ESC when copying files from a PD to some other location. This pre-processing can be so slow (depending on the mood of Windows) that sometimes it's better to just give up." Looks ...

Live Filter won't find "Q."

I wanted to find all filenames that contained "John Q. Public". So in the LFB I entered "Q." (no quotes). But this finds nothing. With a trailing space "Q. " it works. The period alone "." also works. I did read everything about LF in the Help, and made a firs...

Re: Session Manager [v7.00]  —  Bookmark your environments: locations and/or display (tabsets and layout)

Yes, many thanks yet again. This makes what would be tedious and error-prone task / project switching reliable and predictable.
