    ! 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.

v28.30.1306 - 2026-07-01 18:13
    + Glow Up: There will be visual changes to various small controls. Currently, this 
      only affects the small lists. Filter boxes will follow soon.
      As always, you can customize the look to your liking. But since serious interface 
      design is not yet possible in tB, these settings are only available as tweaks for 
      now. These are the defaults (factory and upgrading to this version):
        BorderContour=0     'draw a 1-pixel-wide outline (BOOL, 0/1)
                            'also controls the 1-pixel-wide vertical line in the line 
                            'numbers column of small and main lists
        BorderRounded=1     'only effective from BorderWidth >= 2 (BOOL, 0/1)
        BorderWidth=2       'padding around the control in pixels (Integer 0 - 4)
        LineNumbers=0       'show line numbers in most small lists (BOOL, 0/1)
      Of course, there will be corresponding settings in Configuration once tB has been 
      further developed.
      If you hate it and want to go back to the old look, this will do:
        BorderContour=1
        BorderRounded=0
        BorderWidth=1
        LineNumbers=1
    * 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.

v28.30.1307 - 2026-07-02 12:57
    + Errors: The most recent error message is now saved and can be viewed at any time 
      during the session using this script:
        error -1;
      By the way, you can use the undocumented SC error to fake errors simply by passing 
      the error number:
        error 13; //Type mismatch      
    ! 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.

v28.30.1308 - 2026-07-02 18:52
    + Glow Up: Now dropdowns and filter boxes obey to the new border styles. To keep the 
      looks consistent in the main window, Address Bar and Live Filter Box only obey if 
      "Configuration | Colors and Styles | Highlights & Dark Mode | Borders" is set to "No 
      border".

    * 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.

    + Breadcrumb Bars: Now the hover effect is rounded if "Configuration | Colors and 
      Styles | Highlights & Dark Mode | Selections" is set to "XYplorer Style (Rounded)".
    ! Toolbar: Since 2026-07-02, the separators were incorrectly placed under certain 
      conditions. Fixed.
    ! Tab Bar: Since v28.30.1204 - 2026-06-23 13:11, the New Tab and Tab List buttons had 
      no hover effect anymore. Fixed.
    ! Dialogs with a List and a Filter Box: You could not TAB from the Filter Box to the 
      List due to a tB bug. Worked around.

v28.30.1312 - 2026-07-05 15:49
    + 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".
    ! Thumbnails: Since v28.30.1310, thumbnails turned black when hovered. Fixed.
    ! Dialogs with Filter Box: Since v28.30.1309, dialogs could crash on close. Fixed.

    * Glow Up: Minor change to a key name:
        BorderContour --> BorderOutline      
    + Glow Up: Added a separate key (tweak) to control the one-pixel outline with the hover 
      effect. Factory default is off:
        HoverOutline=0
    * Breadcrumb Bars: The change from v28.30.1301 - 2026-06-29 16:14 had to be undone. It 
      ultimately did not work out.
    % Favorites | Set Box Color...: Now the box colors keep more of the original light 
      mode hue in dark mode.
    ! Batch Rename Preview: Since v28.30.1306 - 2026-07-01 18:13, the dialog layout was 
      broken in > 100% screen scaling. Fixed.
