    + Variable <prop ...>: Now there is an alternative form <propt ...> which 
      will retrieve the properties from the link target if there is any. For 
      example, if "rocky-3.jpg.lnk" is selected:
        echo <prop #image.dimensions>;  //returns nothing (LNK is not an image)
        echo <propt #image.dimensions>;  //returns "770 x 513"
      If "rocky-3.jpg" is selected then both return the same ("770 x 513").

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.

    * Configuration | Preview | Mouse Down Blow Up | Mouse Up on Folder Icons: 
      It also worked on folder thumbnails. Not anymore, not by factory default. 
      However, you can tweak it back (and for upgraders the tweak will be 
      auto-set, so if you upgrade and don't want it then you have to tweak it 
      off):
        MUSDonthumbs=1
    ! MDBU: Strange trigger area in thumbnails view. You could get a blow up 
      when clicking somewhere near the caption. Fixed.

    + Configuration | Preview | Mouse Down Blow Up | Mouse Down on Thumbnails 
      and Icons | Allow dragging items by the thumbnail: Now if this is ticked a 
      quick right-mouse-down-mouse-up on a thumbnail will show the shell context 
      menu.
      FYI, this is consistent with the ability to select an item by quick 
      left-mouse-down-mouse-up on a thumbnail if "Allow dragging items by the 
      thumbnail" is ticked.
    ! MDBU: Might have fixed an issue where the blow-up appeared on the wrong 
      monitor.
    ! MDBU: Strange trigger area in thumbnails view. You could get a blow up 
      when clicking somewhere near the caption. Fixed again. (The last fix was 
      no good in some views.)

v22.60.0101 - 2021-12-18 16:43
    + SC showstatus: Added SC colorfilter() to the affected commands.
    * File | Rename Special | Batch Rename...: From now on when you just enter a 
      pattern without any numeric increment template (like -<#01>), e.g. "new", 
      then *all* new names are affixed with the default increment affix. e.g.:
        new-01.jpg
        new-02.jpg
        new-03.jpg
      Before, you got this instead:
        new.jpg
        new-01.jpg
        new-02.jpg
    ! Configuration | General | Menus, Mouse, Usability | Mouse | On the icon 
      only: Since 20211215 it did not work anymore if "Configuration | Preview | 
      Mouse Down Blow Up | Mouse Down on Thumbnails and Icons | Enable blow ups 
      on file icons as well" was also enabled. Fixed.
    ! Configuration | Preview | Previewed Formats | Category: User-Defined 
      Preview Handlers: If the bitness was stated the list item lacked the 
      human-friendly preview handler name. Fixed.
    ! List: Drives listing was not refreshed after ejecting a drive through the 
      drive's context menu command "Eject". Fixed.
    ! Custom Status Bar Info: The default template was not initialized right 
      away in a fresh installation. Fixed.

    * The following bug fix (v18.50.0118 - 2017-10-30 12:40) is not necessary 
      anymore and has been removed:      
      ! OneDrive in Windows 10 Creators Update: Could not copy/move items anywhere 
        from OneDrive location using Custom Copy. Fixed. Now shell copy is used 
        for the job.
      So the OneDrive folder now behaves like any other folder.
    * Configuration | Preview | Mouse Down Blow Up | General | Shrink to fit: 
      Since 20211213, the taskbar was no longer included in the permitted area. 
      Now the taskbar is included again.
    ! List: Undid the recent "Eject" fix. Needs deeper fixing.
    ! PDF Preview: On a custom scaling > 100% and Windows >= 10 you could get a 
      weird alignment issue with 64-bit PDF previews. Fixed.
    * XY64: Updated to 1.0.0.27.

    + Custom Status Bar Info: Now drives in the drives listing ("This PC") fully 
      support CSBI.
    ! Cell Context Menu | Live Filter / Quick Search: On the Path column the 
      path was returned within quotes which prevented any match with a real 
      path. Fixed.
    ! Cell Context Menu | Live Filter / Quick Search: A relative path 'rock\' 
      would also match the path 'Shamrock\'. Fixed. Now relative paths are 
      returned with a leading backslash: '\rock\'.

v22.60.0105 - 2021-12-21 15:24
    + SC get got a new named argument "FileSystem". Returns the file system 
      (NTFS, FAT32 ...) for the current or the specified path.
      Syntax: get("FileSystem", [path])
      Examples:
        echo <get FileSystem>;
        echo <get FileSystem J:>;
        echo <get FileSystem "J:\rocky 3.jpg">;
        echo <get FileSystem "J:\non-existing-path-or-file.foo">; //works anyway
    + Thumbnails: Added support for 64-bit C4D thumbnails (provided you have the 
      64-bit C4D thumbnail handlers).
    * Custom Status Bar Info: Now the drives support for CSBI is limited to the 
      presence of a new switch: Everything right of |d| is used for drives, 
      everything left of it for other items. If |d| is missing then the template 
      is not used for drives at all.
      Examples:
        |s|<get BytesSelected '' 3>|d|<get FileSystem>
        |s|<get BytesSelected '' 3>|d|* - <get FileSystem>
        |d|* (<get FileSystem>) |s|<get BytesSelected '' 3>
    ! Status Bar: It was not always updated when switching tabs that had the 
      same number of items in the file list. Fixed.
    % Configuration Dialog: Apply and Cancel button widths now adjust to the 
      interface font size (Configuration | Colors and Styles | Fonts | Buttons 
      and Labels).
    * Configuration | General | Safety Belts, Network | Safety Belts | Treat 
      portable devices as read-only: Now this option is on by factory default 
      and you get a warning when you turn it off.
      When it's off you'll also get an alert when you initiate a move to or from 
      a portable device. You can disable this additional warning.
    * Configuration | General | Tree and List | Items in Tree and List | Show 
      portable devices: Now this option is on by default and there will be no 
      more warning if you turn it off.
    * MLS: Internally updated to version 8.140.
      > TRANSLATORS: Please wait until Reference_8.140.lng is uploaded.

      value, then comes "free" or "capacity". This is how the used-bytes-bars 
      are organized as well.

    + SC get("freespace") and get("usedspace"): Added more formatting flags.
      Syntax: get("freespace", [item], [flags])
        flags:    
          0: Flexible format (unit depends on size,
             e.g. 77.58 GB, 1.17 MB, 120.24 KB, 123 bytes)
          1: Return the exact bytes (no formatting).
          2: Return the exact bytes with thousand separators.
          4: Flexible format + formatted exact bytes
          8: Append the percentage relative to the total capacity.
      Examples:
        echo <get UsedSpace>;       //12.05 GB
        echo <get UsedSpace '' 0>;  //12.05 GB (same as above)
        echo <get UsedSpace '' 1>;  //12939067392
        echo <get UsedSpace '' 2>;  //12,939,067,392
        echo <get UsedSpace '' 4>;  //12.05 GB (12,939,067,392 bytes)
      Each of the above can be combined with 8 by adding the values:
        echo <get UsedSpace '' 8>;  //12.05 GB (81%)
        echo <get UsedSpace '' 9>;  //12939067392 (81%)
        echo <get UsedSpace '' 10>; //12,939,067,392 (81%)
