change background color of locked tabs

Post by zzjean »

I'd like to change the background color of the locked tabs (like we can do it for opent tab)

Often I iconize the locked tabs and the underline does not show in that case - so I can't distinguish locked tabs

My english is too poor - sorry

I see but backcolor is no good solution because it does show only in classic mode. Maybe another overlay over the icon...

I don't understand "classic mode" I've searched in XYplorer help and I've not found. I'm a new user of XYplorer :) It's a really good software

It does not matter - It would be fine to have a tag we can see to indicate locked tabs even iconized

thank you

Classic mode is one of two dropdown choices in the "Visual Style" option in Config>Tabs.

It is listed in the Help but isn't indexed so you'd have found it only via "Visual Style" entry in index.

And very happy that you have found XY to be "really good"! We agree! :D

ok thanks - but one or another, it don't change on my pc (Win 7 64 bits) I always use Windows themes (never see difference between Windows and XYplorer classic)

that's why I did not understand (understood ?)

As I said, an icon overlay (as it's done already for Visual Filter-ed tabs) would probably be the best way to handle this. I'll add one when I find the time.

Yes i'm very glad to have discovered XY (I've purchased a Lifetime License Pro).
I've got some trouble with my hands (rheumatism and pain) and I do appreciate tabs, catalog, color filter, quick find and so on...
