* Status Bar: Now the 2nd section always holds the number of files and
folders in the current listing (and the number of *selected* files and
folders if there are any selections). Before, this was only done when
"Show Folder Sizes" was enabled, otherwise there was a slightly confusing
display of "X bytes and Y folders".
* Self Update: Now you get a Status Bar message "updating, please wait..."
after the installer has been downloaded and the app is busy starting the
installer and unloading itself.

v20.60.0402 - 2020-01-25 22:27
! Hover Box: Would not work on the pseudo junctions in a OneDrive folder
on a remote machine seen via network from a machine below Win10. Fixed.
Code: Select all
v20.60.0403 - 2020-01-27 13:57
+ Configuration | Information | File Info Tips | Show Hover Box | Select
Context...: Added option "Tiles and Thumbnails". Untick it if you don't
want to see the Hover Box in those views.
Note that you still can get the Hover Box by holding CTRL while hovering
(CTRL here inverts the non-CTRL behavior).
Note that the option has been rewritten in a way that your current
preferences could not be migrated: You will get all three boxes ticked
when starting this version.
* Configuration | Information | File Info Tips | Show Hover Box | Select
Controls...: Renamed it to "Select Context...".
+ Paste and Go: Now it supports XY native and environment variables in the
pasted string, so you can paste e.g. the string %APPDATA% to the current
list and you will be brought to it right away.
+ Status Bar: Added a tweak to show the Deep Status of the listed/selected
items. That means any listed/selected folders are recursed and their
contents are added to the item and byte count displayed in the second
section of the Status Bar.
StatusBarDeepStatus=1
Note that the Deep Status is shown only when Show Folder Sizes is enabled
for the list, and if the shown folder sizes are drawn from a cache then
also the Status Bar shows the cached values.
* Status Bar: Increased the width of the second section.
* Tweak StatusBar1TotalBytes has been moved to another section in the INI
file. Thereby it's auto-reset to 0. So it you had tweaked it to 1 you have
to do it again.
StatusBar1TotalBytes=1
! Highlight Hovered Items: When hovering the list while changing locations
you could get a fatal crash under certain conditions. Fixed.
! Hover Box: In Tiles View you could get a Hover Box right after entering
rename mode via slow double-click. That should not happen. Fixed.

! List: In view "List" drag selection (aka lasso selection) did not mind the
actual captions of the items but the whole cell. Fixed. Now it works like
in Explorer.

= NEW OFFICIAL RELEASE. Main developments since last release:
+++ This Is A BIG Maintenance Release. There have been numerous minor fixes
and enhancements since 20.60.
+++ Compilation Soundtrack. Compiled to the music of Blackberry Smoke.

v20.70.0001 - 2020-01-29 11:22
! Highlight Hovered Items: The recent fix had a dirty side effect. When
entering a folder while another list item was hovered, that item's
position was redrawn in the following listing if that position was below
the end of the new listing. Argh. Fixed.

v20.70.0002 - 2020-01-29 21:32
+++ Perceptual Image Hash: XYplorer learned to generate a perceptual hash for
images by which you can find duplicate images, sort images by their visual
similarity, measure the degree of similarity between two images, and
search for images that are similar to a given one.
- The PIH is scale-invariant, brightness-invariant, contrast-invariant,
saturation-invariant, hue-invariant, and, of course, pretty damn fast.
Well, relatively fast: Creating the hash will take roughly the time of
creating a thumbnail for the file.
- Cropping and rotation will destroy similarity though, at the moment at
least.
- The hash is currently shown as 5 2-digit hex numbers separated by dots.
This will probably change later.
- The hash can later be stored in a database which will make all of these
operations near-instant (phase 2).
- This is work in progress. For starters I injected the PIH into the Special
Property column "Aspect Ratio" (later it will get its own column, of
course). To test the hash show that column and sort the list by it
(Configuration | General | Sort and Rename | Sort | Sort method ->
Binary!). Similar images should be listed together now.
- Note that I expect a longer experimentation phase until the best
algorithm is found. It might even become configurable to some extent.
- Note that perfection is not realistic in this business but near-perfection
is a reasonable goal. Even that will *vastly* speed up finding duplicate
images, which by eye alone is near impossible if the number of images is
higher than a few dozen.
! Thumbnails: Under certain conditions the thumbs cache was destroyed when
you created and renamed a new folder in list in thumbnails view. Fixed.
Code: Select all
v20.70.0003 - 2020-01-30 20:07
* Info Panel | Find | Dupes: Added checkbox "Image" along with a dropdown
later to be filled with some options concerning the desired similarity.
- Tick Image to find only duplicate image files.
- If Image and Invert are both ticked then only non-dupe images are
returned (not any other file types).
- Note that the hash is not good enough at the moment (far too many false
positives). No worries, I have ideas for a better one...
* Info Panel | Find | Dupes: Removed the label "Match:" and reorganized the
layout a bit.
* MLS: Internally updated to version 8.119.

% Perceptual Image Hash: Better hash.
Code: Select all
v20.70.0006 - 2020-02-01 19:36
+ Info Panel | Find | Dupes | Image: Added dropdown "Tolerance". Set it to 0
(zero tolerance) if you want perfect dupes only (all pixels identical).
Set it to a value larger than 0 to define the tolerated distance for two
images to be counted as dupes.
Already tolerance 1 will ignore scale, brightness, contrast, saturation,
and hue. Higher tolerance will ignore JPEG artifacts and minor differences
in detail. Factory default tolerance is 9 which worked best over here on
countless tests with countless photos.
% Perceptual Image Hash: More dupes found.
% Perceptual Image Hash: Even faster.
! Memory Leak: Each time the thumbnail of certain WEBP files was shown a bit
of memory leaked. Fixed.
Code: Select all
v20.70.0008 - 2020-02-02 22:22
% Perceptual Image Hash: The zero tolerance dupe search did not work for
WEBP and other formats. Fixed.
% Perceptual Image Hash: The zero tolerance dupe search had a poor
performance. Sped it up.
* Status Bar: Increased the width of the second section, again.
