Code: Select all

v17.90.0102 - 2017-05-02 12:51
    + SC folderreport enhanced: Added an argument to limit the depth of recursion.
      Syntax: folderreport([type=dump], [target=clipboard], [folder], [flags], _
                  [outputfile], [separator], [depth=-1])
        depth:  Depth of recursion.
                Ignored if [flags] does not contain "r" (Recurse subfolders).
                -1 = unlimited (default)
                 0 = no recursion
                 1 = one level
                 2 = two levels
                 etc
      Example:
        //show all files in the current path, recurse only the immediate subfolders
        text folderreport("files", "r", , "r", , "<crlf>", 1);
    - This experiment from v17.50.0203 - 2017-02-03 15:48 was not fully 
      successful (it created issues for some users):
        Browsing Protected Folders: Experimentally the "You don't currently have 
        permission to access this folder." prompt is popped when you get an 
        "Access Denied". After pressing "Continue" the folder will be unlocked. You now
        have to access the folder again in XYplorer to browse its contents.
        NOTE: Pressing "Continue" *permanently* changes your permissions regarding 
        this folder. There is no easy way back to the original state.
      Removed it for now. Needs further research.
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.

    ! Edit | Paste Special | Paste As Junction(s): When you stated a junction 
      name with a trailing space you ended up with a plain folder with that name 
      (but without the trailing space) and no junction was created. Fixed. Note 
      that the trailing space will be auto-removed.

    ! Thumbnails: The speed gain in v17.90.0109 - 2017-05-08 14:33 lead to a 
      bug: "Create all thumbnails at once" did not work anymore. Fixed. But read 
      on...
    * Thumbnails: I added a limit to "Create all thumbnails at once" because 
      it can slow down things too much in larger lists. From now on "Create all 
      thumbnails at once" will process only the top 4096 items in a list.

    + SC getinfo got a new named argument "rowcountview".
      Syntax: get("rowcountview")
        return: Number of fully visible rows in the current view port of the 
                list.
                Note that the value can be larger than the number of items in 
                the list, namely in small lists without visible scrollbars.
                Half-visible rows are not counted.
      Example:
        echo get("rowcountview");
    * Thumbnails: Removed the recently added limit to "Create all thumbnails at 
      once" (v17.90.0201). Added another logic that should speed up the listing 
      of large image folders in thumbs view that already hve been fully cached.
    ! Thumbnails: The above also fixes a one-off glitch added in v17.90.0201.
