Download the latest XYplorer BETA version (v4.40.0057, 21-jan-2006).

Code: Select all

v4.40.0057 - 21.01.06 09:50
    + Configuration, Preview: added option "Mouse Down Blow Up: Shrink 
      larger originals to fit window". Check to avoid scrolling around 
      larger images.
    * Image preview, Mouse Down Blow Up: the blown up view is now 
      centered in the main window. Before it was shown in the lower left 
      corner.
    + Have a small screen? Added more thumb sizes: 30, 40, 54 pixels!
    + Status bar: if hidden files are not shown by configuration, the 
      status bar now tells you the total number of items in the format 
      "shown files/total files". A hint at what you are missing...

Another bug in Auto-refresh... If I create a folder in the Tree, and then do History-Back (left arrow) in order to return the view to a different folder, the new folder vanishes and I have to do an F4 to get it to display again.

Might this last issue be moved to a thread in Bugs forum? Seeing new posts here make me wonder if new beta has occured...if not, ok also.

I think this might be related to the fact that I always have a tab open to "My Computer".

Just now, I discoverd that if I am in a tab that is on My Computer, if I do "Create New Subfolder" in the Tree by right-clicking on a folder, then nothing happens.

I think it is possible that some of these Auto-Refresh issues are related to this.

Download the latest XYplorer BETA version (v4.40.0060, 24-jan-2006).

Code: Select all

v4.40.0060 - 24.01.06 19:30
    ! Context menu tree, "Create New &Subfolder Here": did not create 
      anything when current folder was MyComputer or Nethood. Fixed. 
    ! Context menu tree, "Create New &Subfolder Here": if invoked on a 
      special path like "Desktop" selection would jump to the real 
      location:
        C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\Donald\Desktop\New Folder\
      instead of the special display location:
        Desktop\New Folder\
      Fixed.
    ! Menu Go, Go to from Here, invoked by Ctrl+Shift+G, would sometimes 
      select the wrong tree node. Fixed.
    ! Menu Go, Go to...: a new entry would not be added to the common 
      drop down history list (of "Go to..." and address bar). Fixed.

So you are saying that there should be no posts in this Forum other than announcements of a new Beta version ?

General comments or questions concerning the last BETA are ok. But bugs and wishes should go to their respective forums because often longish discussions arise...

Download the latest XYplorer BETA version (v4.40.0061, 25-jan-2006).

Code: Select all

v4.40.0061 - 25.01.06 09:56
    ! When you moved or copied items from a search results list to an 
      excluded folder located within the search subtree then the items 
      now in the excluded folder showed up in the refreshed find 
      results, which they should not. Fixed.    
    + Menu Edit: added command "New Shortcut...": displays the Create New 
      Shortcut dialog. Completing the dialog creates a shortcut at the 
      current location.
    + Address bar: if a destination is currently hidden (it has a HIDDEN 
      attribute AND you don't show hidden items), you are told so now and 
      don't go nowhere.
      The non-reachable destination will, however, be printed to the 
      bar's edit field. so that you can work with it, or change the 
      hidden option and then try another jump to it.

Download the latest XYplorer BETA version (v4.40.0063, 27-jan-2006).

Code: Select all

v4.40.0063 - 27.01.06 09:54
    + New keyboard shortcut:
        Ctrl+Alt+P (= AltGr+P): Open Command Prompt Here
    + Added close tab on middle mouse click. Works on foreground and 
      background tabs.
    * Revised professional-license-only features: under the free home 
      license you can try out the following features to full extent but 
      your settings won't be remembered between sessions.
      - Toolbar Customization
      - Color Filter
    * Find Files, Results to tab: when you choose "Results to tab Search 
      results" and a new "Search results" tab is auto-created it will now 
      also be auto-locked upon creation! Thus it stays the "Search 
      results" tab as long as you don't unlock it, or rename it, or close 
      it.

NO!!! That starts PSPad!!. Ctrl+Alt are no use to me since I use all of them for starting Windows applications. I'll investigate if I can use an AutoHotkey script to solve it (Ctrl+Alt and AltGr are regarded as different keys in AutHotkey) before I ask you to change it. That is, if there are any keys left!!
