    * Flatten Folder: Now you get an error message if the folder could not be completely 
      flattened because one or more files could not be moved (probably because they were 
      locked by another process).
    ! Configuration | General | Menus, Mouse, Usability | Cell Context Menu | Use 
      localized search and filter patterns: If disabled then Live Filter and Quick Search 
      via cell context menu did not work anymore for the first 10 Custom Columns. Fixed.

    + Extended Pattern Matching: Now you can specify characters in a range by their 
      Unicode number using the syntax U+HHHH (where H stands for a Hex digit from 0-F).
      The U and the H can be upper or lower case, it does not matter. All these examples 
      are functionally identical and in a Quick Search they will match all filenames 
      containing one or more characters beyond the ANSI range (0-255).
        *[U+0100-U+FFFF]* /E
        *[U+0100-U+ffff]* /E
        *[u+0100-u+FFFF]* /E
        *[u+0100-u+ffff]* /E
      FYI, ranges can be combined without any separator between them. For example, 
      matching filenames with Hiragana or Katakana:
        *[u+3041-u+3096u+30A0-u+30FF]* /E
      Note that you must use 4 hex digits, the total supported range is U+0000 to U+FFFF 
      (65535).
    > Scripting: The above enhancements in Extended Pattern Matching also apply to the 
      Like operator in scripting:
        echo "kigi" Like "*[u+3041-u+3096u+30A0-u+30FF]*";  //0
        echo "キギ" Like "*[u+3041-u+3096u+30A0-u+30FF]*";  //1

    ! Tabs: If tabs to the right of the selected tab were out of view, and the selected 
      tab happened to be perfectly pixel-aligned to the right edge of the available space, 
      there was no way to select the tab to the right with the mouse. Fixed. Now a minimum 
      of 16 pixels is guaranteed to be visible to the right of the selected tab.
    ! Columns: Recent fix created some new glitches. Fixed.
    ! Custom File Associations: When submenus were present, items that should be there 
      could be missing from the menu. Fix #2.

    ! Columns: Using "View | Columns | Add Column" or SC setcolumns, it was possible to 
      add (instead of showing) any of the 10 fixed custom columns (which are always part 
      of the column set but not necessarily visible) to the column set, making them dupes 
      (one visible, one invisible). This could lead to confusion, e.g. with SC report when 
      done on custom columns. Fixed.
    ! Catalog: The "Open Overlong Item?" prompt was also displayed for URLs. Fixed.
    ! Portable Openwith Menu: Did not honor "Configuration | General | Refresh, Icons, 
      History | Icons | Apply to all controls". Fixed.

    * Floating Preview: Now you can cycle through 5 different background colors instead of 
      4. The new one is the so-called button face color, and it's possibly tinted when in 
      dark mode. Allows you to achieve a consistent look in dark mode, as an alternative 
      to the neutral background colors.
    * Hover Box: Since 20240319, the dark background of the status section for text 
      previews showed the dark mode color tint (as defined in "Configuration | Colors and Styles 
      | Highlights & Dark Mode | Dark mode | Color tint") even in light mode. Meant to be 
      cool, but now I think it was a mistake. Changed it back to a neutral color.
    * Hover Box: Same as above for the dark background color with image previews.
    ! Panes | Swap Panes: If enabled, double-click on the inter-pane splitter did not 
      correctly set both panes to equal width. Fixed.
    ! Folder Thumbnails: Mouse Down Blow Up on right-click stopped working since 20250212. 
      Fixed.
