    ! You could not delete (via Shell Context Menu) the parent folder of 
      the current folder when Auto-Refresh was enabled (because a 
      watched folder is blocked from deletion by Windows). Fixed: Now 
      the current folder is automatically un-watched right before the 
      deletion.
    ! New List Controls (Catalog and various small Lists): Scrolling by 
      mouse wheel did not work with certain mouse brands. Fix #2.
    ! When scrolling Tree, List, or Catalog by wheel, any visible 
      tooltips where not updated to the new item under the mouse. Fixed.

Download the latest XYplorer BETA version (v7.20.0010, 18-jun-2008).
Choose one: (1) Install Package, (2) No-Install Package (each about 1 MB).

Code: Select all

v7.20.0010 - 2008-06-18 12:22
    + Added new power and ease to the date variables.
      How to use a user-defined format (just as it was before):
        <date yyyy>
        <datem yyyy-mm-dd>
        <datec yyyy-mm-dd hh:nn:ss>
        <datea yymmdd_hh_nn_ss>
      How to use the current file list date format (date columns in 
      Browse mode) (NEW!):
        <date>
        <datem>
        <datec>
        <datea>
      How to use the general system date format (NEW!):
        <date >
        <datem >
        <datec >
        <datea >
      Same goes for the <src...> variants, e.g. <srcdatem> to use the 
      current file list date format.
    + Variable <curver>: Now you can add a textual context that only 
      will be returned when an actual file version is present. This 
      allows for better formatting control.
      The general syntax is <curver|text*text>, where * is the place 
      holder for the actual version number.
      Examples, each resolved for two items, one with version info, and one 
      without version info:
      - <curname><curver|, v*>
        XYplorer.exe, v7.20.0009
        History.txt
      - <curname><curver| [ver *]>
        XYplorer.exe [ver 7.20.0009]
        History.txt
      - <curname><curver>
        XYplorer.exe7.20.0009
        History.txt
    + Tweak to configure Statusbar section #3: The above starts to make 
      sense when you look at this new tweak (will be elevated to 
      official configuration on success...).
      Now, you may define a template for Statusbar section #3, and use 
      all XY variables you like in it (I hope your screen is wide 
      enough). This template will be used whenever an item is selected 
      in the list. 
      Here's an example:
        [Settings]
        StatusBar3OnFile="<curname><curver|, v*>, mod <datem>"
      The above example would result in the following Statusbar texts if 
      you select XYplorer.exe resp. History.txt:  
        XYplorer.exe, v7.20.0009, mod 2008-06-17 15:40:29
        History.txt, mod 2008-06-18 10:02:34
      If you do not want to use the tweak, simply do nothing and the 
      entry will look like this...
        [Settings]
        StatusBar3OnFile=""
      ... in which case the Statusbar will use the age old internal 
      default:
        XYplorer.exe [ver 7.20.0009]
        History.txt
    ! New List Controls (Catalog and various small Lists): Scrolling by 
      mouse wheel did not work with certain mouse brands. Should be fixed.

Download the latest XYplorer BETA version (v7.20.0009, 17-jun-2008).
Choose one: (1) Install Package, (2) No-Install Package (each about 1 MB).

Code: Select all

v7.20.0009 - 2008-06-17 15:45
    + Menu View | Caches: Added command "Refresh Environment Cache". 
      XYplorer caches environment variables (e.g. %TEMP%) on first usage 
      for performance reasons. Use this command to update the cache in 
      case your environment variables changed.
    + Statusbar: The total size of the current folder is now displayed 
      in the tooltip of the 2nd statusbar section when any items are 
      selected. Thus you can see the total size of the selection AND the 
      total size of the folder at the same time.
    * List: the Autosize Columns function now provides the extra space 
      (16 pixels) that might be needed by the "sorting triangle", to 
      avoid cropping of the column heading. This change will typically 
      result in slightly wider Ext and Size columns when you use 
      Autosize Columns.

      setting was not saved between sessions -- embarrassing bug, sorry

Code: Select all

v7.10.0050 - 2008-06-06 09:57
    + Menu Help: Added command "List of Functions...". It creates a list 
      of all functions, with their permanent IDs (used in Scripting) and 
      currently assigned keyboard shortcuts.
        Format: Function Name [TAB] Function ID [TAB] Keyboard Shortcut
      The list is copied to the clipboard from where you can paste it

Choose one: (1) Install Package, (2) No-Install Package (each about 1 MB).

Code: Select all

v7.10.0047 - 2008-06-04 15:50
    ! Rich Copy/Move commands were not available in the drop-context 
      menu of a hover-foregrounded tab. Fixed.
    ! Menu File: "Restart without Saving" did not work anymore since 
      v7.10.0044. Fixed.
    * Configuration | Startup & Exit | "Allow multiple instances": Note 
      that if you use a switch in the command line (either /ini or /win) 
      then you will ALWAYS get a new instance EVEN if "Allow multiple 
      instances" is OFF. This is necessary from the programmatical POV, 
      and I think it also makes sense from the user POV.

Code: Select all

v7.10.0044 - 2008-06-04 11:07
    + Configuration | Startup & Exit: Added option "Allow multiple 
      instances". If unchecked, then XYplorer will always re-use any 
      previous instance (and restore it if minimized), even if no path 
      is passed as command line parameter. This was not possible before.
      Note that the default state of this setting is OFF, so you have to 
      check it to return to the old state of affairs.
    + Now the Catalog learned all the new Listbox tricks...
        - UNICODE editing
        - Touchpad scrolling
      ... and ceased being a maldito UserControl. Two yet to go.
