    + SC confirm enhanced: You can now make the default button red. This is useful for 
      emphasizing the importance of a question.
     Syntax: confirm(text, [linebreaker], [default_button=1], [buttons_icons=1], [flags])
        flags (bit field)
          1: Show the classic shell owned message box (instead of XY's WinUI 3 style).
          2: Make the default button red.
      Example:
        confirm("Sure you want to erase everything?", 4:=2);
    + Tools | Configuration: Now you can hold CTRL while clicking Tools | Configuration to 
      force the dialog to open over the main form. It's a secret trick that everyone will 
      forget, but it will come in handy when the dialog is lost on an attached but 
      powered-off screen.
    ! File | To Clipboard | Large Icon: Did not work anymore. Fixed.
    ! File | To Clipboard | Small Icon: Did not work anymore. Fixed.

    ! Exif Date Retrieval: EXIF dates on systems with German date settings were 
      interpreted as English dates when numerically possible (months and days switched). 
      The issue surfaced in functions like "File | File Special | Set Modified Date to 
      Exif". Fix #2.
    ! Info Panel | Find Files | Tags | Select Labels: Dialog was cropped. Fixed.
    ! Info Panel | Find Files | Tags | Select Tags: Dialog was cropped. Fixed.

      progress dialog were off by one file. Fixed.

    ! List: Since 20260710, the focus rect was not shown anymore for lists that were not 
      in Details view. Fixed.

v28.30.2702 - 2026-09-16 20:58
  +++ Menu Help: Added command "Repeat Last Command". Select it to repeat the last used 
      menu command or last used toolbar button (whatever came last). This is a usability 
      monster that was on my list for a long time.
      Notes:      
      - The command is naturally a bit risky because it does not say what it will do. You 
        have to *remember* what was the last menu command (or toolbar button) you used. By 
        the way, a menu command is anything with a command ID, anything you can assign a 
        keyboard shortcut to.
      - I didn't assign a default keyboard shortcut (e.g. Ctrl+R) to it because of that 
        danger (but you are free to assign one, of course). I also packed it between two 
        menu separators to reduce the chance of misclicks.
      - For safety reasons, the last command is not remembered across sessions. Therefore, 
        the command won't do anything until you use your first menu command of the session.
      - Also commands called by scripting via command ID (eg: #101;) count as last command.
    + Toolbar: Added button "Repeat Last Command". Does the same as the command above.
      Notes:
      - If you wonder about the wavy icon: think "repeat".
      - The toolbar button is less risky than the menu command because its tooltip tells you 
        what it will do if you click it.
      - Nice added value: If you ever wondered what you just clicked, this toolbar button's 
        tooltip will tell you.
    * MLS (64-bit): Internally updated to version 8.407.
      > TRANSLATORS: Please wait until Reference64_8.407.lng is uploaded.

    + Glow-Up: Customize Toolbar dialog done. The ugly Zoom dropdown will soon be replaced 
      by a cool slider control.
    % Tools | Customize Toolbar: This dialog now opens without any flicker. Previously, 
      the toolbar underwent unnecessary repaints.
    * Repeat Last Command: Only left-clicks on regular toolbar buttons are registered as 
      last command. No right-clicks, and no clicks on buttons that pop a menu on 
      mousedown. Supporting that is not a problem, but it feels awkward to see a foreign 
      menu attached to the Repeat button, especially when going via menu Help | Repeat 
      Last Command.
    * Configuration | Colors and Styles | Styles | Overall spacing: The effect of this 
      setting on the toolbar is now limited. Values greater than 2 no longer affect the 
      toolbar.
    * XYcopy (x64): Updated to 2.20.0047.
    ! File | Rename Special | MP3 Special: Keyboard shortcuts never worked for commands in 
      this submenu. Fixed.

    + Toolbar | Repeat Last Command: The context menu now shows the seven most recently 
      used commands. How cool is that?!
      If you select a command from here, the last commands sequence won't be updated. This 
      keeps the positions stable until you use the menu again.
    * Repeat Last Command: Now toolbar clicks are not included by default (not registered 
      as last commands). To change that, right-click the "Repeat Last Command" toolbar 
      button and select "Include Toolbar Clicks".
    + Glow-Up: Customize Toolbar dialog improved. Buttons got little direction cues.
