Change Log for the latest
XYplorer BETA version:
Code: Select all
v23.20.0001 - 2022-06-09 20:18
+ Preview Pane: Experimentally added the option to show the Preview Pane to the left
of the file list instead of to the right. The obvious advantage is that the previews
then are nearer to the Name column, which is where you usually look and click.
To toggle the position hold CTRL while using the command "Window | Arrangement |
Live Filter Box in Status Bar". Later it will get its own command, of course.
+ SC get got a new named argument "dimensions" by which you can retrieve
the dimensions and/or aspect ratio of an image or video file.
Syntax: get("dimensions", [file], [template="%w% x %h%"])
file: The file.
Defaults to the currently focused file.
template: Format of the returned string. Supports the following variables:
%w% = width, %h% = height, %a% = aspectratio.
Defaults to "%w% x %h%".
return: Dimensions and/or aspect ratio, depending on the template.
Examples, using variable syntax:
text <get dimensions>; //720 x 480
// note the two spaces where the "file" argument is omitted!
text <get dimensions "%w% x %h% [%a%]">; //720 x 480 [3:2]
Examples, using script syntax:
text get("dimensions"); //720 x 480
text get("dimensions", , "%w% x %h% [%a%]"); //720 x 480 [3:2]
% Tabs: Smoother switch to a tab where the focused file will be previewed. Now the
list is first painted, then the preview is fired.
* Type Ahead Find: Now a single Space will by factory default select the focused list
item. To make Space work in TAF just like any other key, use this tweak:
TAFSkipSingleSpaces=0
FYI, this changes the default behavior introduced in v22.10.0103 - 2021-08-19 13:27.
I decided to go with the expected standard. Muscle memory rules.
! Live Filters and Visual Filters: Since 20220527 any trailing or leading spaces in
filter patterns were simply ignored. Fixed.
