Change Log for the latest XYplorer BETA version:

Code: Select all

v16.00.0245 - 2015-12-08 18:29
    + Floating Preview: Added a tweak to always keep the Floating Preview 
      snapped to the main window's right side.
        FPSnap=1
      No need to fumble with the INI file. Ctrl+Shift+Alt+F12 will toggle the 
      setting and do the initial snap if it's toggled on.
      Will add it to the FP menu if it turns out good. (I like it already now.)
    ! Preview 2.0: Some internal adjustments. Now e.g. MHT preview handlers will 
      work if you add MHT to Office Files.
    ! Image Preview: Huge images (> 40 MB pixels) were not always shown (but 
      turned invisible depending on the zoom scale). Fixed.
      For the time being, as a side-effect of the fix, such images are shown at 
      a reduced size leaving some black areas in the preview. A minor glitch 
      that will be fixed later.
To download the latest BETA version choose a download package: (1) Installer Package, (2) No-Install Package.

:!: 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.

    * Floating Preview: Now unsnapping moves the preview window fully into view 
      horizontally (if it wasn't there before).
    ! Floating Preview: Snapping shortcut Ctrl+Shift+Alt+F12 did not work for 
      non-image previews. Fixed.
    ! Floating Preview: On non-image previews the keys Del, F2, F12 and 
      Ctrl+Alt+Enter did not work. Fixed.

    + Mouse Down Blow Up on Icons: Now it works for Font Files as well. Show the 
      font thumbnail (probably only since Win 8).
    ! Thumbnails: Thumbnails for fonts and SVG files were transparent on black 
      where they should be transparent on white. Fixed.
    ! Floating Preview: Focus issue with XLS Files. Fixed?

    + Floating Preview: All previews now support the Script Button and "Run 
      Script" (F8).
    + Floating Preview: Non-image previews now also pop a small context menu on 
      the status bar.
    % Floating Preview | Tag Bar: Changing any tags now works without 
      unnecessarily reloading the preview. Don't waste a nanosecond.

    + Floating Preview: Once it's showing it will now also preview text files 
      and any non-previewed file types (textual or hex depending on content).
      If FP is not showing then things stay as before: F11 opens Quick File View 
      on text files and any non-previewed file types.
    * Miscellaneous | File Operations | Open in Browser: Removed the default 
      shortcut Ctrl+F11. I need it for more important things soon.
      (The whole command is borderline junk and should be removed soon.)

    * Tags: From now on the double quote character (") is not allowed in Tags 
      anymore. Reason: It potentially leads to unsolvable parsing troubles.
      Upgraders: Old tags containing this character will continue to work just 
      like before. You are just prevented from adding new tags with this 
      character, and it's highly recommended that you remove any double quotes 
      from your existing tags. Otherwise you will run into problems sooner or 
      later.
    * Tags Search: A space character in the unquoted search pattern was treated 
      as a loose Boolean AND. Not useful in this context. From now on it's 
      treated as a normal character.
      A search like this:
        Free Jazz /T
      will find all items tagged "Free Jazz".
    * Tags Search: Parentheses in the unquoted search pattern were treated as 
      Boolean parentheses. Not useful in this context. From now on they are 
      treated as normal characters.
      A search like this:
        Free Jazz & Thoinot Arbeau (1520-1595) /T
      will find all items tagged "Free Jazz" AND "Thoinot Arbeau (1520-1595)".
    ! Preview Tab: Premature "Cannot Decode" message. Suppressed.

    * Updated the help file.
    ! Time Stamping: If you live in the part of the world using the weird AM/PM 
      system then changing the minutes of a date stamp where the hour component 
      is 12 AM resulted in a wrong new date stamp (off by 12 or 36 hours 
      depending on your time zone). Fixed.

Summary of the latest XYplorer Official Release.

Download: http://www.xyplorer.com/download.php

Code: Select all

v16.10.0000 - 2015-12-15 18:00
    = NEW OFFICIAL RELEASE. Main developments since last release:
  +++ Preview. Completely revised the preview engine. Now you can preview 
      Office, Audio, and Video files using the available preview handlers. A 
      huge improvement over previous versions, notably for Office files and 
      document formats like RTF, PDF, and XPS.
  +++ Floating Preview and Full Screen Preview. Now it supports previewing 
      Office, PDF, Audio and Video, Font, and Icon files. And, of course, you 
      still can view your photos with it.
  +++ Batch Move. This feature allows you to automatically distribute a large 
      number of files by certain criteria to automatically created folders, in 
      one go. A neat freak's dream.
  +++ Multilingual Support. Added support for Finnish.
