Change Log for the latest XYplorer BETA version (32-bit):

Code: Select all

v27.20.1402 - 2026-06-11 21:47
    % Toolbar: Started a major icon overhaul.
    * Toolbar: The disabled versions of the buttons Back, Forward, Undo, and Redo are now 
      softer, especially in dark mode.
    * Splitters: Increased the default width from 2 to 4 pixels, which is the recommended value.
    ! Configuration | General | Menus, Mouse, Usability | Mouse | Point to select: In 
      Details view, the selection happened even when pointing beyond the file name or 
      icon. Probably since 20260419. Fixed.
:info: To easily upgrade to this BETA version of XYplorer (32-bit), hold down the CTRL key and click Help | Online Support | Check for Updates. If you prefer to download the BETA version, choose one of these packages:
(1) Installer Package, (2) No-Install Package (for manual unpacking).

:!!: Note that BETA versions are work in progress and may contain new bugs. You have been warned. It's a good idea to backup your complete XYplorer settings (File | Settings Special | Backup Application Data Folder...) before running a new BETA. This will also help to fix any new bugs.

    * Scripting: Variables that refer to the current file now work on the currently 
      focused list file, even if the file is not selected. Previously, the file had to be 
      both focused and selected. For example:
        copytext <cursize>;
      Note that this also affects scripts in Toolbar | Open With.
    ! Batch Rename: Under certain conditions the rename would be triggered after you 
      X-closed the dialog. Fixed.

    + Configuration | General | Controls & More | Miscellaneous; Added option "Open 
      favorites in new tab". Check it to always open favorite folders and favorite files 
      in a new tab.
      Note: If "Open favorite files directly" is enabled then, of course, no new tab is 
      opened.
    ! Configuration | File Operations | File Operations | Miscellaneous | File operation 
      progress dialog modeless: Setting was ignored by Custom Copy (dialog was always 
      modeless). Fixed.

    * Catalog: Some changes were applied to the glyphs (a small square inside a square) 
      shown in the included catalogs:
      - The different colors were removed, now all glyphs are grey.
      - The glyphs are only shown for category headers.
      - They look better in dark mode.
    * XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0293.
    ! Preview Tab / Preview Pane: The "Preview Now" button (along with "File type excluded 
      from preview in configuration.") did not always appear when it should have, nor did 
      it always work when it did appear. Fixed.

    ! SC readfile: Decoding problem with ASCII files encoded in a non-Western code page 
      (anything but 1252 (ANSI - Latin I)) when you did not explicitly set the codepage 
      parameter to the Active ANSI Code Page (e.g. 936 for Simplified Chinese). Fixed.

v27.20.1408 - 2026-07-04 21:40
    * Filter Boxes (Small Lists): The last used filter is now always stored (ready for the 
      next toggle), even if the dialog was canceled or the list was not filtered when the 
      dialog was closed (OK or Cancel). Previously, it was only stored when the dialog was 
      OK-ed and the list was filtered at that point.
      Note that the last used filter is a global value applied to all small filter boxes.
    * Address Bar: The dropdown match list now only appears when the edit box contains 
      at least two characters. This prevents the drive T: from being activated (or even 
      woken up) when you type "t" (e.g. for writing "text") and showing all the matches on 
      it.
    ! Address Bar (with the dropdown button on the left): When you moved the mouse over 
      the dropdown button, then to the icon, and then to anywhere else, the dropdown 
      button continued to capture the mouse movements. This rendered the mouse unusable 
      over the dropdown list, toolbar, tabs, or anything else (no clicks were registered). 
      Fixed.
    ! Tab Bar: Since 2026-06-23, the New Tab and Tab List buttons had no hover effect 
      anymore. Fixed.

v27.20.1409 - 2026-07-05 15:54
    + Audio Preview: Added tweak to auto-close the preview after the playback is done. 
      This ensures that the previewed file is no longer locked by XYplorer and that other 
      processes can access it fully.
        AutoClose=1
      Note that this tweak only takes effect if "Configuration | Preview | Preview | 
      Audio/Video preview" is set to "Play once".
    ! Dialogs with Filter Box: Since v28.30.1309, dialogs could crash on close. Fixed.
