XYplorer Beta Club
Hi,
Hope it hasnt reported yet.
1) File Preview, Image Size: A large image (over around 1024 pixels) gets 1024 as size
2) File Preview: When a script selects an image file, with the preview window open, it does not show anything
3) Right Click Menu, Move Up...: If done on search results, the files are moved to other dirs than their respective parents. This one made a mess of my files.
Cheers,

Not the best way to start the day. Did Undo work for you?Yogui wrote:3) Right Click Menu, Move Up...: If done on search results, the files are moved to other dirs than their respective parents. This one made a mess of my files.
Could you give an exact example of where files were originally and where they ended up?
Re: 3 Bugs after some weeks of use
Sorry, I forgot to check the undo. They weren't that many files and I could find them and move by their names.
my log is deleted so I can't send it to you.
I din't try much to reproduce it but they were a few levels different parent directories
I went back to my old method of using a renamer tool for that stuff, an individual parent dir works fine on xyplorer.

1) Not here. Or maybe I misunderstood what you mean. Please explain again.Yogui wrote:Hi,

2) This is a feature. It is assumed that scripting is used for rapid automation rather than for the human eye.
3) The question is: What would be the expected behavior here? "Up" relative to each file, or relative to the search location?

Re: 3 Bugs after some weeks of use
Thanks for keeping my questions numbered! 
1) In the "ScreenShot.jpg" image attached the Xyplorer preview size is: 1024x510 for an image "Booklet 1.jpg", same file is open in infranview and size is correct (statusbar): 5645x2814
2) I use scripting but also keep an eye on the browsing. Is there a way to force the preview in the xyplorer script code?
3) I've expected Move to each file parent dir, so "move up" seems a bit missleading when on the search results. I did a script to do up to each parent, so is not a problem. Please not that when move up moves everthing to the Search location files with same names will overwrite each other... no undo there...

Re: 3 Bugs after some weeks of use
1) Ah, as you see in the preview tab, there is "Preview created by shell". This means the preview is actually the largest thumbnail the shell is able to create for an image (which happens to be 1024 x 510 in this case). Now why the shell? Because XY's internal preview failed for that picture, probably because it is too large. Note that "too large" varies from system to system (current RAM and also other factors play a role, I never found out the exact criteria).Yogui wrote:Thanks for keeping my questions numbered!

2) The sel command does it. What does your script use?
3) Makes sense. I'll see what I can do.

Re: 3 Bugs after some weeks of use
3) OK, concerning "move up" in search results, I changed the status bar message to "move selected items to the folder above the current search location" when in find mode. Individual moving up to each item's parent folder is not supported.

Re: 3 Bugs after some weeks of use
1) aaaa...I was of the idea that the whole propose of an alternative File Explorer to MS is that it works properly not like MS stuff (i.e. Shell) just being silly. 
I use imagemagic from the command line to get/set sizes etc, I suppose that you will need a .dll for performance. I can't help with dll, dont know how to call it.
2) I've used "selectitems" that I think allows multiple selections and full path. Is that the problem? Should I use "Sel" when 1 item only?
3) Done :-)
