Change Log for the latest XYplorer BETA version:

Code: Select all

v18.50.0116 - 2017-10-28 16:00
    + Portable File Associations: Now you can use toolbar graphics as icons. 
      They are referred to by the usual syntax: Prefix ":" to the button key. 
      For example, using the "Home" button icon:
        |"Append modified date|:home" \;*>::rename , '*-<datem yyyymmdd>'
    + Portable File Associations: Now the icon path defaults to <xyicon>, so 
      you don't need to state a path for icons located in that folder.
      BEFORE:   |"Append modified date|<xydata>\Icons\Kiss.ico" \;*>::rename , '*-<datem yyyymmdd>'
      NOW ALSO: |"Append modified date|Kiss.ico" \;*>::rename , '*-<datem yyyymmdd>'
    - Command Line Switches: This change from v18.50.0107 - 2017-10-26 17:40 had 
      to be withdrawn because of undesired side effects:
        Now this works as well:
          /script="::run quote("E:\Test\Has Space.txt");"
      No, you cannot have double-quotes inside a double-quoted script in this 
      context. Only these ways are okay:
        /script="::run quote('E:\Test\Has Space.txt');"
        /script="::runq 'E:\Test\Has Space.txt';"
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.

    ! SC update: A silent update was not silent enough. Fixed.
      Now this works as expected:
        update 1 + 16 + 128; //update to the latest beta version silently and auto-run it 
      PS: Well, almost. One message box remains to click.

v18.50.0201 - 2017-11-12 15:10
    * Configuration | General | Startup & Exit | Check for updates on startup: 
      Experimentally now the same interface is loaded as if you you clicked 
      "Help | Online Support | Check for Updates". In case of an available 
      update you get a simple message box like this one:
        There is a new official version (18.50.0200) available for download.
        Click OK to update now.
    ! Configuration | General | Startup & Exit | Check for updates on startup: 
      Would not trigger if on startup the mouse pointer was over anything 
      triggering a tooltip. Fixed.
    ! Info Panel | Report | Current List: When you pressed ESC right before 
      generating a report the line "*** Job terminated by user. ***" was falsely 
      printed to the top of the report. Fixed.
    ! Image Aspect Ratio: A ratio of 3:1 was shown as 6:2. Fixed.

v18.50.0202 - 2017-11-13 18:28
    + App Exit: Now when anything goes wrong on save settings you are prompted 
      whether you want to exit the app (any maybe lose any changes in your 
      configuration) or keep it running (to keep your configuration alive, check 
      what went wrong, and maybe fix it, e.g. by removing a ReadOnly flag or by 
      regaining necessary disk space).
      This is the message:
        Errors on Save Settings!
        Some settings might not have been saved to disk.
        Click OK to exit XYplorer anyway.
        Click Cancel to keep XYplorer running.
    * List: Now middle-click on LNK files behaves like Shift+Dbl-Click on LNK 
      files: The link target is opened in a new tab.
    + Configuration | Filters & Type Ahead Find | Type Ahead Find | Redirect 
      typing to Live Filter Box: Now it handles dead keys that are copied to the 
      keyboard buffer. So you can type the accent key and then "a" to get "á".
      for this to work the Live Filter Box gets the input focus once a dead key 
      is pressed.
