v25.90.0004 - 2024-04-23 14:37
    ! SC conf: Custom overlay contents were shown for image files but not for video files. 
      Fixed. Example:
        conf("ThumbsOverlayContent", '<prop Type>');  //show file type as thumbnail overlay
      Note: "Configuration | Preview | Thumbnails | For videos as well" must be checked to 
      make it happen.
    ! List: When re-sorting the list, the current focus position should stay in the same 
      vertical place whenever possible. This did not work properly with non-detail views. 
      Fixed.

:!!: Note that BETA versions are work in progress and might contain fresh bugs. You have been warned. It's a good idea to backup your complete XYplorer settings (menu File | Settings Special | Backup Application Data Folder...) before running a new BETA version. This will also help in fixing any fresh bugs.

    ! Tabs: When dragging something across a tab, the hover effect was not reset when 
      leaving the tab or ESC-ing the drag. Fixed.
    ! Toolbar | Bookmark Buttons: There were some complicated problems with drop-on 
      buttons, especially when they created modal dialogs: Focus confusion, buttons needed 
      two clicks to react, and drag-and-drop was blocked system-wide until the dialog was 
      closed again. All this has been fixed by a complete rewrite of the flow.
    ! Catalog | Script Items: Same issue as above. Same fix.
    > Tip: If you want those cute special mouse pointers along with the drag status box, 
      you have to uncheck this: Configuration | Other | Shell Integration | Drag and Drop 
      | Use standard shell drag and drop. In other words, you have to use XYplorer's 
      native drag and drop.

    ! Toolbar | Bookmark Buttons: The insertion marker flashed near the right end of the 
      right-most button of each row. Fixed.
    ! Changing Locations: Fixed a rare issue where changing locations could cause an 
      unpredictable chain of errors due to a race condition and bad luck.
