v9.90.0010 - 2011-01-13 15:25
    + Menu Favorites: Added command "Reload Tags Database" by which you 
      can reload the tags database from disk, aka revert to saved.
      Especially useful when XYplorer is run in a company where many 
      users share read-only access to a common tags database which can 
      be altered only by the administrator.
    + Admin Settings: Added another thing to hide resp. disallow:
        eAPDisallow_Write_Tags = 512
      This setting in Admin.ini will disallow the user to modify tags 
      (Labels, Tags, and Comments):
        [Settings]
        Profile=512
    + Menu Edit | Move/Copy/Backup To: Now dbl-clicking a destination 
      in the destination list triggers the default action (Move, Copy, 
      or Backup) with that destination.
    * Folder Sizes: Rewrote large parts of the folder size calculation. 
      Now you can switch Tree nodes smoothly while the calculation for 
      the current folder is still in progress.
    ! Find Files: A name search (e.g. via Address Bar) would return *all* 
      files regardless of their name if the Name filter on the Find Files 
      tab was unchecked. Fixed.

To download the latest BETA version choose a download package: (1) Installer Package, (2) Portable Package.

Note that BETA versions are work in progress and might contain fresh bugs. You have been warned.
It's a good idea to backup your complete XYplorer settings (menu File | Settings | Backup your Application Data Folder)
before running a new BETA version. This will also help in fixing any fresh bugs.

v9.90.0012 - 2011-01-14 11:20
    + Version information in Info Panel and File Info Tips now supports 
      Unicode.
    * List: Now when a new file or folder has been added to the bottom 
      of the list, the sorting currently sorted column turns "dirty". In 
      that state pressing the column header will not reverse but refresh
      the current sorting.
    * List: Now, when the sorted column is "dirty" i.e. the sort order 
      is probably not perfect (e.g. because a new folder has been added to 
      the bottom of the list), the little pyramid symbol changes its color
      (to color "Marked Text 1") to show the dirtyness.
    ! Find by Tags: Quick search for tags disregarded the flag to do a 
      non-recursive search (since 20101217). Fixed.
      Examples:
        ?tags:"melanoxylon" /         = do not include subfolders
        ?tags:"melanoxylon" /r        = do include subfolders
        ?tags:"melanoxylon"           = use the setting in Find Files
    + Toolbar | Find by Tags: Now you can configure the button to 
      - "Search Everywhere"
      - "Search This Branch"  (including subfolders)
      - "Search Here"         (not including subfolders)
      The options are found at the bottom of the button's dropdown menu.
    * List: Autosize columns now increases the Tags and Comment columns 
      width to maximally 200 pixels. Since tags and comments can have any 
      length, some arbitrary limit has to be enforced here.
    + Tweak to show tags and comments in view Details with Thumbnails in 
      multiline format:
        CommentMultiline=1
    * Configuration | Startup & Exit | Don't save most-recently-used 
      lists: Now this setting also applies to Find Files Name and 
      Location.

To download the latest BETA version choose a download package: (1) Installer Package, (2) Portable Package.

v9.90.0020 - 2011-01-14 20:17
    + Tweak to limit the column width by Autosize Columns to a certain 
      value (in pixels), e.g. 200 pixels:
        AutoSizeColumnsLimit=200
    - Removed this feature from v9.90.0012:
      List: Autosize columns now increases the Tags and Comment columns 
      width to maximally 200 pixels. Since tags and comments can have 
      any length, some arbitrary limit has to be enforced here.
    - Removed tweak to show tags and comments in view Details with 
      Thumbnails in multiline format:
        CommentMultiline=1
      Reason: This setting works so well, it is now hard-coded!
    * List: Autosize Columns now works alright for the Comment column 
      when it is in multiline mode.
    * List | Comment column: Now in multiline comments that have to be 
      shown in a single line, the pilcrow character (¶) is replaced by 
      two spaces for better looks.

    * Updated the help file.
    ! Raw View | Extract Text | International: Did not work alright in 
      Russian and probably some other locales (two letters were not 
      recognized). Fixed.

v9.90.0101 - 2011-01-24 20:06
    + UDC | Open With: Added the new variable <title> which is only 
      meaningful when you call multiple instances. You can use it like 
      this, for example:
        "winzip32" -a "Zipped_Folder_<title>.zip" <items>
      This will add all currently selected items, each to an archive 
      auto-named to the title ( = base.extension) of the respective 
      item.
    + Variable <get [Command ID] [ReturnOnTrue = 1] [ReturnOnFalse = 0]> 
      now also supports the following Command IDs:
        #660 = Show Address Bar
        #661 = Show Toolbar
        #662 = Show Tab Bar
        #663 = Show Navigation Panel
        #664 = Show Catalog
        #665 = Show Info Panel
        #668 = Show Tree
        #669 = Show Background Bar
        #670 = Show Status Bar
        #685 = Wide Info Panel
      Example:
        echo get("#665", "IP Visible", "IP Hidden");
    * Command Line Switches: Now the app is more tolerant about the 
      order of switches and attempts to parse a command line correctly 
      where the startpath not given as the last argument.
    ! Menu Edit | Select | Select By Selected Type(s): If the Type of a 
      selected extension contained the character "#" ( e.g. "Visual C# 
      Source File") then the command would not work as expected. Fixed.

v9.90.0102 - 2011-01-25 20:09
    * Configuration | Startup & Exit: Now, if "Open command line start 
      path in new tab" is ON and "Don't save tabs" is ON then no new tab 
      is opened on startup when a command line start path is given. This 
      avoids a useless "(My)Computer" background tab.
    * Tree: Experimentally, in Maxi Tree mode, you now can go to items 
      that are not visible by configuration (because they are HIDDEN, 
      SYSTEM, or JUNCTION, and you opted to hide those items).
      Before you would have gotten a message like this:
        
        You can't access C:\Donald\Data\Mozilla\Firefox\
        Reason: You opted in configuration to not show HIDDEN items.
      
      Notes
      - In Mini Tree mode this has always been possible anyway.
      - The visit is only temporary. Once you refresh the Tree the 
        current node will vanish and selection will jump to the next 
        available (= conforming to user settings) parent node.

v9.90.0104 - 2011-01-26 15:28
    + Command Line: Now the /script switch to run a script directly from 
      the command line also works in a re-used previous instance. So if 
      you really want you now can feed scripts into the running instance 
      via command line.
    * Tree: Revised the experiment concerning browsing hidden paths 
      (v9.90.0102). Now you can browse any destination in the List even 
      if it is hidden by user settings, BUT the Tree will not follow.
      This solves numerous problems that did arise with a Tree that's 
      inconsistent with the user settings.

v9.90.0106 - 2011-01-27 14:28
    + Menu Edit | Paste Special: Added command "Create Symbolic Link(s)". 
      Creates a symbolic link (aka symlink or soft link) to the item 
      currently on the clipboard, in the current location. It also works 
      for more than one item at a time.
      Notes:
      - This command needs Vista or later!
      - Contrary to Folder Junctions this command can be applied to 
        files (not just folders).
      - Currently no relative symbolic links are supported. It might 
        come later...
      - The targets of Symbolic Links are shown as "Junction Target" in 
        the interface (File Info Tips, List context menu) just like the 
        targets of Folder Junctions proper, in order to keep things a bit 
        tighter.
      - Also the Color Filters make no difference between Symbolic Links 
        and Folder Junctions, since all share the 
        FILE_ATTRIBUTE_REPARSE_POINT file attribute.
      - And, consequently, when you uncheck "Show Junctions" in the 
        interface, then also any Symbolic Links are hidden.        
    + Menu Edit | Paste Special: Added command "Create Folder 
      Junction(s)". Creates a folder junction to the folder currently on 
      the clipboard, in the current location. It also works for more 
      than one folder at a time.
      Note that it does not work on files.      
    + New variable <get visualfilter [pane]>. Returns the currently 
      active visual filter (or nothing if none).
      The optional "pane" argument can be:
        a = [default] active pane 
        i = inactive pane
        1 = pane 1
        2 = pane 2
      For example:
        <get visualfilter>    //active pane's visual filter
        <get visualfilter i>  //inactive pane's visual filter
      As always, SC get supports the same argument:
        echo get("visualfilter");     //active pane's visual filter
        echo get("visualfilter", i);  //inactive pane's visual filter

    + Configuration | General: Added option "Sort folders always 
      ascending". Tick it to have the folders always sorted by name in 
      ascending order. Especially useful if also "Keep folders on top" 
      is ticked.
      Note that "Mixed sort on date columns" will overwrite this 
      setting for the Date columns.

    + Tweak for better reuse of existing tabs. Set to 1 to autoselect 
      the first tab with a matching locked homezone when the current tab 
      is locked. Tabs are scanned from left to right, first in pane 1, 
      then in pane 2.
        TabBinding=1
      Note that the feature is not applied when you force opening the 
      loation in a new tab (e.g. by holding SHIFT).
