v10.60.0132 - 2011-12-16 15:00
    * SC tabset: Operations "openas" and "loadas" have been removed. 
      Clones are now passed in the "name" argument using the "as:"-
      syntax. At least one space needs to be before and after "as:".
      New Syntax: tabset([operation=open], [name], [pane=a])
      Examples:      
      //Select a tabset and load a clone of it named "clone1":
        OLD: tabset("openas", , , "clone1");
        NEW: tabset("open", " as: clone1");
      //Select a tabset and load a clone (name is prompted for):
        OLD: tabset("openas");
        NEW: tabset("open", " as: ");
      //Load tabset "work" as clone named "clone1":
        OLD: tabset("loadas", "work", , "clone1");
        NEW: tabset("load", "work as: clone1");
    + SC tabset enhanced: Now also "browse" supports the "as:"-syntax.
      Examples:      
      //Browse for a tabset and load a clone of it named "clone1":
        NEW: tabset("browse", " as: clone1");
      //Browse for a tabset and load a clone (name is prompted for):
        NEW: tabset("browse", " as: ");
      //Browse for a tabset in E:\Test and load a clone of it:
        NEW: tabset("browse", "E:\Test as: ");
    ! Calculating Folder Sizes could get confused when the list was 
      resorted while the calculation was in progress. Fixed.

Download: http://www.xyplorer.com/download.htm

Code: Select all

v10.70.0000 - 2011-12-21 12:00
    = NEW OFFICIAL RELEASE. Main changes since last release:
  +++ Tabsets. Now you can save and load the tabset of a pane, that's 
      all tabs including their layout (tab settings and tabwise list 
      settings) and contents (cached search data, find settings, homes, 
      history, etc.). (Pro Edition Only)
  +++ Visual Filters. Now Visual Filters support environment variables 
      and XYplorer native variables.
  +++ Flat View. Renamed it to "Branch View". Reason: "Flat View" had 
      been trademarked by a competing product.
  +++ Branch View and Name Search. Now you can branch view and search 
      whole servers.
  +++ Sorting. The new command Previous Order allows you to toggle 
      between the two recent sort orders.

v10.60.0135 - 2011-12-21 09:56
    * Updated the help file.
    ! Menu View | Views: Checkmarks were not updated. Fixed.

      Note: It does not seem to work with all items. Conditions are not 
      yet fully understood.
    ! Menu File | Properties: Did not support multiple files always 
      under Win7 (no such problem under XP). Fixed.

      serves to toggle the Info Panel. The button's right-click menu has 
      a couple of related commands.
    * Menu Window: Renamed "Show Background Bar" to "Show Status Bar

v10.70.0204 - 2012-01-10 14:40
    + Automatic Rich File Operations: From now on, any copy/move 
      operation (drop, paste, to new subfolder, etc.) will check whether 
      its direct sources are "rich" (= come from more than one folder), 
      and then offer to do a Rich Copy or Move instead of the standard 
      flat operation (where things might collide/merge).
      Note that "rich sources" typically come from recursive search 
      results or branch views.
      The rootpath for such a rich operation is the greatest common 
      parent folder of the sources.
    + Enhanced tweak HotKeyShowApp. Now it will minimize XY when it's 
      not minimized and in the foreground. So you now have a nice toggle 
      to show/hide the app.
    ! Under Win7 you could get a false "Location currently not 
      available" when the location was under a special folder that was 
      hidden by user settings (and some other ingredients, like a 
      junction in the path and not using the Mini Tree). Fixed.
    + Branch View: Now the "Selected Locations" checkbox on the Find 
      Files tab is honored for Branch Views as well. This means you can 
      select multiple folders in the list view and then branch view them 
      together in one list.
      Note: If your folders overlap (which can happen when selected from 
      a recursive search results list) you can get duplicate entries in 
      the Multi Branch View. BTW, this is not a new phenomenon but can 
      as well happen with a Multi Location Search.
    * List: In Multi Location Searches and Multi Branch Views the Path 
      column now supports showing relative paths, namely relative to the 
      greatest common parent path.
    ! Branch View: A multilocation term like this
        E:\Test\A\;E:\Test\B\? /:flat
      was not displayed as expected in the Address Bar, and also was 
      wrongly added to the Recent Locations list. Fixed.
    ! Tabsets: A finding tab could lose its finding magic when loaded 
      from a stored tabset. Fixed.

v10.70.0205 - 2012-01-11 15:29
  *** Tabs and Tabsets: Rewrote the way tabs and tabset data are stored 
      on disk. Before, the configuration (and optionally contents) of a 
      Search Results tab where stored immediately on disk when switching 
      to another tab, thus changing the tabset's stored state 
      irreversibly. Now, any disk writing is performed to a temporary 
      folder "t", a subfolder of the tabset's data folder. Only when 
      explicitly triggering a Save (or when "Auto-save tabsets on 
      switch" is ON, see below), the original tabset data are 
      overwritten. As long as no Save is performed, you can always 
      Revert to the stored state of a tabset.
      > NOTE: This has been big and involved work, so take care and 
        backup your tabsets before testing this version!
    + Configuration | Tabs: Added option "Auto-save tabsets on switch". 
      Check it to automatically save the current tabset when switching 
      to a new one. Factory default is OFF.
      Note that up to now this behavior was controlled by Configuration 
      | Startup & Exit | Save settings on exit, which really didn't 
      make a lot of sense.
      Now you can setup the app to startup exactly as the previous 
      session was closed without having the tabset saved irreversibly.
    + Menu Tabsets: Added command "Revert to Saved". Reverts the current 
      tabset to its saved state. Afterwards the previous temporary state 
      is irreversibly lost.
    + SC tabset enhanced: New operation "revert" allows you to revert 
      the current tabset to its saved state. Example:
        tabset("revert");
    * Toolbar | Tabsets: The dropdown menu now features "Revert to 
      Saved" rather than "Open As...". The latter command has lost 
      importance due to the recent changes in the way tabsets are 
      managed.    
    * Configuration | Advanced | Auto-Refresh: Renamed "In network 
      locations as well" to "Include network locations".
    * Configuration | Advanced | Auto-Refresh: Added "Include removable 
      drives". New factory default is ON.
      It applies to USB sticks, thumb drives, flash card readers, and 
      the like, but NOT to floppies.
      This setting was already available in the context menu of 
      the Auto-Refresh toolbar button since v8.60.0109.
    * Multi Branch View: Now you can select multiple folders in the list 
      view and then branch view them together in one list, irrespective 
      of the state of the "Selected Locations" checkbox on the Find 
      Files tab. Only condition: The list must have the focus.
    > Multi Branch View: You can directly trigger a Multi Branch View 
      from a Branch View when folders are selected in the focused list. 
      The "Branch View" toggle silently turns into a "Branch View" 
      command under these conditions.
    ! Multi Branch View: Fixed a couple of glitches concerning various 
      MBV related status texts. Also the tree synching on tab switch 
      works better now for MBVs.
    * Main Titlebar: Now the path is always displayed without trailing 
      slash. Before, this was a bit inconsistent.
      Exception: Drive roots which by convention are always shown with a 
      trailing slash in Windows.
