Home Zone Lock doesn't stay in zone

Post by dlmichener »

I found what I think is a bug in the Lock Home Zone feature where you can navigate to a folder outside of the current zone and XYplorer (tested with 18.40) will show that folder in the locked tab.

I have two tabs for two different folders, but the folders have similar names: C:\Optiva12.13 and C:\Optiva12.13_VS2017
The tabs are set with a home location for their respective folder, and they have the "Lock Home Zone" optioned enabled.
The tabs have both been renamed too "12.13" and "12.13_VS2017" respectively.

While in the 12.13 tab, I can click on a folder from the 12.13_VS2017 folder in the Mini-Tree, and XYplorer will show that folder in the 12.13 tab.
The opposite doesn't work however. That is, while in the 12.13_VS2017 tab, clicking on a 12.13 folder takes me out of the current tab, and opens a new tab instead.

It seems like the Lock Home Zone feature is doing a partial match on the folder name of the newly selected folder, where it should include the last path separator as part of the Home Zone path.
