    - Find Files | Contents: Removed "Match wide strings". It was more confusing 
      than useful.
    ! Text Preview and Text Content Search: Attempt to fix an issue related to 
      the active code page. Attempt #2. Now e.g. Chinese encoded files should be 
      correctly previewed and searched if the active code page is Chinese.

v16.50.0221 - 2016-04-12 09:05
    + SC get enhanced: Now it can return all current list items, with or without 
      path.
      Syntax:
        - get("ItemsNames", [separator=CRLF], [pane=a])
        - get("ItemsPathNames", [separator=CRLF], [pane=a])
      Remarks:
      - As always the enhancement also applies to the <get ...> variable.
      - The items are returned in their current order.
      - Usage: Among many other uses this function can be used to save custom 
        sort orders that later can be loaded using SC SortByList.
      Examples:      
        text <get itemsnames>;      //all items without path, active pane
        text <get itemspathnames>;  //all items with path, active pane
        text <get itemsnames | i>;  //all items without path, inactive pane, separated by |
    ! Video Preview: The preview window was sometimes ripped out of place when 
      quickling switching between running videos. Fixed.
    ! SC savethumb: Popped an error when just the percentage was given in the 
      widthbox argument (since 20160225). Fixed. Now this works again as expected:
        savethumb(, , "50%");

Summary of the latest XYplorer Official Release.

Code: Select all

v16.60.0000 - 2016-04-12 20:00
    = NEW OFFICIAL RELEASE. Main developments since last release:
  +++ Permanent Custom Sort Order. For many years XYplorer supports creating 
      custom sort orders by dragging items to new positions in Manual Sorting 
      mode. Now those custom sort orders are remembered per tab, across tab 
      switches, and across sessions. You don't need to know or do anything, it 
      just works.

v16.60.0001 - 2016-04-13 15:57
    + Preview Pane: Now any formats that were previously shown as "Not a 
      previewed format." are now shown as in Quick File View, i.e. either as 
      text or in hex format, depending on the contents. So every file (not 
      empty, and not excluded by user) is now previewed in the Preview Pane.

    ! Drag and Drop: PDF-XChange Editor allows to select pages and drop them 
      into Explorer to create a new PDF from these selected pages. This did not 
      work in XY. Now it does.
    ! Portable File Associations: Stating the name of the executable (with or 
      without ".exe") of registered applications (added in v16.30.0006 - 
      2016-03-01 15:36) did not work yet for dbl-clicking list items to open 
      with that executable. Fixed.
    ! MLS: The Description field in Tools | Customize Keyboard Shortcuts... 
      (Shift+F9) was not high enough to show three lines at once when printed in 
      Segoe 9. However, three lines are needed in some translations. Fixed.

v16.60.0003 - 2016-04-15 20:50
    * List: From now on multiple selected files are opened in their current 
      order, independent of which of them has the current focus.
      - This changes the behavior described in v6.60.0010 - 2007-11-20 13:00 
        which followed the behavior of Windows Explorer in those days. Today 
        Windows Explorer, aka File Explorer, seems to be less predictable in the 
        order of processing multiple selected files. So XYplorer now takes the 
        freedom to do better.
      - Notable exception: When opening multiple files via the shell context 
        menu, the old behavior has to be continued because the focused file is 
        expected to control the nature of the menu, and the controlling file has 
        to be the first file processed for technical reasons. (This might be the 
        reason why Explorer started this slightly weird behavior in the first 
        place.)
    * SC sync: Stupid function name. Renamed it to "syncselect". The old name 
      "sync" is deprecated; it's kept, however, for backward compatibility.
    ! Floating Preview: Did not remember positions above the top of the main 
      monitor. Fixed.
    ! Recycle Bin didn't auto-refresh for deleted folders anymore since a 
      related fix in v16.50.0205 - 2016-04-07 23:29. Fixed.

v16.60.0004 - 2016-04-17 12:46
    + Menu Tools | Customize List: Added "Show Folder Sizes". This setting is 
      logically OR-ed with the the global setting "Configuration | Tree and List 
      | List | Show folder sizes", i.e. if at least one of them is ON then the
      folder sizes are shown for the current list.
      What you gain by this additional way to turn on "Show Folder Sizes" is 
      more control over this potentially time-consuming service. You can now 
      enable it specifically per tab and per folder. Both presupposes, of 
      course, that the global setting is turned OFF:
      - Per tab: If you turn on "Configuration | Styles | Remember list settings 
        per tab" and apply it (via the "Apply..." button) to "List style (line 
        numbers, auto-size, grid...)" then you can show folder sizes 
        individually per tab.
      - Per folder: If you turn on "Tools | Customize List | Show Folder Sizes" 
        for a particular folder and save the view using "View | Folder View 
        Settings | Save Folder View", you can show folder sizes just for this 
        folder.
      Notes:
      - The setting "Configuration | Tree and List | List | Show folder sizes | 
        In network locations as well" does NOT affect the scope of "Tools | 
        Customize List | Show Folder Sizes".
      - You can quickly toggle the new setting via a custom keyboard shortcut 
        (which you have to assign first, of course). Before, there was not way 
        to toggle "Show Folder Sizes" per keyboard shortcut.
    * MLS: Internally updated to version 8.74.
      > TRANSLATORS: Please wait until Reference_8.74.lng is uploaded.

    * Tools | Customize List | Hide Extensions: Undid the change from 
      v16.50.0212 - 2016-04-10 13:14. The settings now works again in all list 
      views, not just in Details views.
    + Tweak to limit the scope of "Tools | Customize List | Hide Extensions" to 
      just the Details views:
        ListHideExtInDetailsOnly=1
    % Improved performance of re-calculating folder sizes due to auto-refresh.

    * Edit | Select | Selection Filter...: Now the first selected item is 
      automatically focused and scrolled into view.
    % List: Some gains in speed and smoothness at icon rendering.
    ! SC substr: Did not return the expected results when the start was set to 
      before the actual string. Fixed. Now anything before the string is 
      returned as nothing, but counted in length:
        text substr("X2", -3);     // "X2"
        text substr("X2", -3, -2); // ""
        text substr("X2", -3, -1); // "X"
        text substr("X2", -3, 0);  // ""
        text substr("X2", -3, 1);  // ""
        text substr("X2", -3, 2);  // "X"
        text substr("X2", -3, 3);  // "X2"
        text substr("X2", -3, 4);  // "X2"
    ! ITT: Checkboxes were drawn too narrow in the translation preview so the 
      caption would falsely wrap in some cases. Fixed.

    + File | Rename Special: Experimentally, the submenu and all its commands 
      are now also available when the focus is on the Tree. So you can use the 
      various rename commands (via menu File, or via keyboard shortcuts) on a 
      tree folder without the need to first show that folder in the list. 
      Smoother flow.
    + Tweak to limit the scope of "Tools | Customize List | Hide Extensions" to 
      just the shortcuts (*.lnk, *.url, *.pif):
        ListHideExtShortcutsOnly=1
    ! Copying Outlook attachements did not work anymore since v16.60.0002 - 
      2016-04-14 22:04. Fixed.
