Change Log for the latest XYplorer BETA version (64-bit):

Code: Select all

v28.40.0605 - 2026-10-30 13:06
    * Small Lists: Previously, the currently selected item was not clearly marked in lists 
      with colored items, such as Color Filters or Labels. Now, the current item is 
      surrounded by a one-pixel border.
    ! Configuration | Information | Tags | Label captions and colors | Edit: When trying 
      to rename a label using illegal characters (; and |), the warning message appeared 
      again and again after pressing ENTER. App had to be killed. Fixed: The warning 
      message no longer appears. At the moment this seems the only possible fix.
    ! Visual Filter and Quick Search: Pressing ENTER while the match list was being 
      dropped no longer directly triggered OK. Fixed.
    ! Visual Filter and Quick Search: Pressing ENTER within the edit box no longer 
      triggered OK since 20261028. Fixed.
    ! Info Panel: When starting with Info Panel off, you were greeted with a stray Info 
      Panel since v28.40.0604. Fixed.
:info: To easily upgrade to this BETA version of XYplorer (64-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.

    > Info Panel | Version: The listbox has been upgraded to a modern version. It

    + Configuration | General | Startup & Exit | Adjust to OS light/dark mode at startup:
      It now also adjusts to switching the OS light/dark mode. From Win 10 onwards.
    + Info Panel | Font Zooming by Ctrl+Wheel: Now the glow-up tabs react.
    * Font Zooming by Ctrl+Wheel: The size of the "Buttons and Labels" font (e.g. when 
      over the Info Panel) is now limited to a maximum of 11.25. Higher values would break 
      the layout.

    * SC inputselect: When flags 2 (checkboxes) and 512 (return all) were combined, 512 
      won, but this is counter-expectative. Fixed: Now 2 wins.

    > Info Panel: Due to heavy internal restructuring in preparation for the next step, 
      there may be temporary side effects (display glitches, nothing serious) when 
      resizing or displaying the panel. This will be resolved in one of the next betas.
    + Glow-Up: Info Panel | Meta done (nothing to see here).
    ! Tweak StripAccelerators: Did not work in the new parts of the Info Panel. Fixed by 
      replacing it by something better:
    + Configuration | General | Controls & More | Miscellaneous: Added two options to 
      configure the handling of Access Keys (aka Accelerators or Mnemonics).
      - Enable access keys
      - Underline access keys
      Notes:
      - Disabling "Underline Access Keys" removes the underlining but leaves the 
        functionality intact (meaning you'll have to memorize the keys).
      - Disabling "Enable Access Keys" removes both, functionality and underlining.
      - This refined customizing is only available for the new glow-up controls, which 
        soon will fully replace the old win32 controls.
      - Both are turned off by default. Current design trends discourage underlining.

    + Glow-Up: Info Panel master tabs done. All tabs are in place now and work (with some 
      remaining glitches). Modern controls are still missing in Preview, Raw View, and 
      Tags. Getting closer.
    ! SC abs: The region-aware over-smartness of abs() accepted "-$12.99" but not 
      "-£12.99" as a number when the locale was set to US, and vice versa when the locale 
      was set to UK. Fixed: Now both are seen as "not a number", regardless of your locale.
    ! Startup: When starting in maximized state, the right end of the toolbar could look 
      like a hole, showing a copy of whatever was beneath it. Fixed.
    ! Startup: The last beta (v28.40.0617) did not work for some users. Should be fixed.
