Enable/disable show of name/location

I happen to use a program called ObjectDock Plus, which allows me to do all sorts of funky things to show current running tasks etc
The problem is that I have a side dock on the left hand side of the screen and if I hover over the XY shortcut then the path and program name take up a lot of screen width-wise.
Additionally, for privacy reasons, you may not want people to know the folder you're in just in case they peek over your shoulder. So to cut to the chase, I would like to see being able to specify what text goes in here:

No problem, it's easily doable through a little INI Tweak >> http://88.191.26.34/XYwiki/index.php/IN ... n_Titlebar

Thanks jacky!

Little hiccup though:

Trying to edit this field "LastVer=7.50.0000". I edit it, save the INI file, reload it through XY or just restart XY, but the change doesn't hold and therefore display isn't affected.

Yeah, but no one told you you were allowed to edit this field. That's some internal XY settings and you shouldn't mess with them!

Well that's a problem because it means INI is not completely customizable. Also, the parameter <ver> in the TitlebarTemplate is misleading because it's actually LastVer and isn't editable to get the desired effect. For someone who uses mostly the stable versions of XY, the extra zeros are are a waste of space.

No the INI is customizable, but if you want to mess with settings you're not supposed to, don't come in and complain that things don't work as (you) expected then.

And FYI when you use <ver> in TitlebarTemplate is puts the current version number of (running) XYplorer, that has nothing to do with LastVer which is, I believe, the last version that has been used to save this INI file, and works as internal setting for XY to ensure compatibility. If you don't want the 0000 simply put manually "v7.50", but you'll have to change it whenever is needed. The official version number is 7.50.0000 and that's why this is what <ver> resolves to.

Then how do you know which settings you can safely mess with and which ones you can't?

The answer is simple and slightly recursive: If you don't know the answer then the answer is "none".
