Perhaps I was not as clear as I should have been. I refer to the customization of the tool bar/s.

Still not really clear to be honest. You would like to remove the separator line and replace it with a custom amount (if that is what you meant by "variable size", otherwise please elaborate) of empty space?

You can add extra space (without removing the line) in the config file (XYplorer.ini) by adjusting this:

Code: Select all

; Tweak: factor of separator width (2 - 10)
ToolbarSepFac=0
So I assume your wish is just to be able to hide the separator line (basically making it transparent), to end up with blank space between the icons instead?

Hi
Used the Tweak and it met the first requirement brilliantly.
Now just need to remove the line if at all possible. If not ok better than the 3 lines I had before.

If you'd rather not have a separator and instead have space on the toolbar, you can put text: in the name field of a new customized toolbar button. It will create an amount of blank space relative to the number of spaces used aftertext: You can assign an action or script to the blank space CTB just like any other button via the "On left-click" and "On-right click" mouse button action blocks.

you can put text: in the name field
But how to make the button inactive in this case?

PS
In general, it would be nice to have a "Padding" button (transparent separator) in addition to the "Separator" button.

There's no way to avoid the mouse over using the text: method.

In the next beta you can set ToolbarSepFac to a negative value to suppress drawing the separator.
