v12.90.0025 - 2013-09-24 09:37
    * Tweak NoAutoSelectAfterDelete: Now the tweak also affects auto-
      selection after moving (not only after deleting). So the tweak has 
      been renamed to NoAutoSelectAfterDeleteOrMove.
    ! Undo Delete to Recycler: Under XP it did not work for LNK files 
      and other "known file types" if the system was set to hide known 
      extensions. Fixed.
To download the latest BETA version choose a download package: (1) Installer Package, (2) No-Install 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 Special | Backup Application Data Folder...)
before running a new BETA version. This will also help in fixing any fresh bugs.

    ! Find Files: Finding files by XYplorer-only properties did not work 
      yet correctly. Fixed. Now you can, fir example, find all images 
      with aspect ratio 16:9 using this search pattern in the name 
      field:
        prop:#AspectRatio: 16:9
      Of course, the same pattern also works in Quick Search and 
      (prefixed with a ?) via Address Bar.
    ! SC formatdate: Did not return the fractions of a second for the 
      current date. Fixed. This works as expected now:
        status  formatdate(, "yyyy-mm-dd hh:nn:ss.fffffff", "y", "1");
    ! SC formatdate: "Zodiac" did not work anymore. Fixed. This works as 
      expected now:   
        text formatdate("16.08.2009", "Zodiac"); //Leo

      normal Color Filters apply to the Tree even if "Configuration | 
      Color Filters | Apply color filters to the Tree" was off. Same for 
      the List. Fixed.

      in special folders in Tree after time-stamping a folder. Fixed.

Summary of the latest XYplorer Official Release.

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

Code: Select all

v13.00.0000 - 2013-09-26 12:00
    = NEW OFFICIAL RELEASE. Main developments since last release:
  +++ Instant Color Filters. A new toolbar button features a set of 
      predefined color filters that can be applied individually and 
      independently of the normal Color Filters. This means you can 
      spotlight the files you are interested in now, just in time, with 
      a single click.
      The Instant Color Filters are fully customizable to your needs and 
      easy to share. They support the full set of file properties and 
      meta properties, plus a couple of XYplorer only properties.
  +++ Color Filters for Folders. Now the folder tree supports Color 
      Filters by age. So you can, for example, color code all folders 
      created or modified today, or this week, or this month, etc.
  +++ Image Aspect Ratio. Now you can color code the aspect ratio of 
      image files, e.g. 16:9 images green, 4:3 images blue, etc. You can 
      as well search and find image files by their aspect ratio.
  +++ Scroll To Top. Now Ctrl+Shift+DblClick on white space scrolls the 
      list to top. A handy little addition because it's the only way to 
      quickly scroll to top with the right hand at the mouse.
  +++ Mouse Down Blow Up (MDBU). Now the right button MDBU optionally 
      fits the image to the screen whereas the left button MDBU zooms it 
      to original size. Very useful for photographers.
  +++ Multilingual Support. Added support for Indonesian.

      items.
    ! Restore Selection: Since v11.30.0008 - 2012-06-11 22:07 you could 
      not toggle between the two last selection patterns anymore. Fixed.

v13.00.0002 - 2013-09-28 16:59
    * Menu Edit | Select | Select Items...: Now when you pass items with 
      paths and the list is in Find mode, then the matching takes the 
      full path into account.
    + SC selectitems enhanced. Now you can optionally match items 
      honoring the full path. To achieve this the "ignoreextensions" 
      parameter has be renamed to "flags" (while keeping full functional 
      compatibility to previous versions).
      Syntax: selectitems itemlist, [flags], [focusfirst=1], [mode], [pane]
        flags: (bit field)
          0: [Default]
          1: Ignore extensions.
          2: Match full paths.
      Examples:
        selectitems "<clipboard>";    //Match names without paths
        selectitems "<clipboard>", 2; //Match full paths

    + List: Now when the list shows an empty folder, pressing DEL will 
      delete this folder (after OK-ing a prompt). This is experimental.
    + SC popupMainMenu enhanced: Now you can pass the caption of any of 
      the main submenus to pop just this menu.
      Syntax: popupmainmenu [submenu]
      Examples:
        popupmainmenu "file";
        popupmainmenu "edit";
    + Scripting got a new function.
      Name: GetTokenIndex
      Action: Returns the index of a token in a token list.
      Syntax: gettokenindex(token, tokenlist, [separator=|], [flags=iw]);
        token:      token to find in list of tokens
        tokenlist:  list of tokens
        separator:  separator used in list of tokens
        flags:
          i = Matching is case insensitive (A==a).
          w = Token has wildcards.
              If missing then token is treated literally.
              If included and token does not contain wildcards treat it as *token*.
        returns:
            0 = If token was not found in the list.
            Otherwise return the index of the token within the list (1 = 
            first position).
      Examples:
        echo gettokenindex("xls", "docx|doc|xlsx|xls");  //4
        echo gettokenindex("red;*", "Blue;12|Red;15|Green;28"); //2
        echo gettokenindex("red", "Blue;12|Red;15|Green;28"); //2 (*red*)
        echo gettokenindex("red", "Blue;12|Red;15|Green;28", , ""); //0 (red)
    + Variable <get trigger> now supports an optional parameter "mode" 
      which offers a new functionality when set to "ctbindex":
      Syntax: <get trigger [mode=mousebtn]>
        mode:
          mousebtn: [Default] Return the mouse button that triggered the 
                    script.
                    "1" is the first button. Returns "-1" if script was 
                    not triggered by a user button.
          ctbindex: Return the user button index that triggered the 
                    script.
      Example:
        echo "<get trigger ctbindex>";

Change Log for the latest XYplorer BETA version:

Code: Select all

v13.00.0004 - 2013-10-01 21:18
    * Configuration | File Operations | Turn off delete confirmation: 
      Inverted the logic, renamed to "Confirm delete operations", and 
      moved to Configuration | Menus, Mouse, Safety | Safety Belts.
    + Configuration | Menus, Mouse, Safety | Safety Belts: Added "Also 
      when deleting to Recycle Bin" as a sub option. Untick this option 
      and tick "Confirm delete operations" to have a confirmation only 
      on permanent deletions.
      Note: On upgrading both options are ticked (which is also the 
      factory default).
    + Tweak to add additional file types that should be checked for 
      specific icons (which they might have if certain shell extensions 
      are installed). Simply list the extensions separated by a dot, 
      for example:
        SpecificIconsCustom=bmp.png.jpg
      FYI, the hard-coded default file types for specific icons are:
        exe.lnk.ico.icl.cur.ani.url.scr.ttf.otf.ttc.sln
    + Tweak to preview Word documents (doc,docx,dot,dotx,rtf) like all 
      other Office formats (namely via IE ActiveX):
        NoWordSpecialPreview=1
      FYI, the tweak has been added already 20100919 (when special 
      treatment for Word documents was added to the preview) but was 
      never mentioned in change log.
      Purpose: In case you have a 3rd party file viewer installed that 
      integrates with Internet Explorer (ActiveX), XYplorer will preview 
      all file types supported by this viewer (if they are listed under 
      "Web & Office files" in Configuration | Previewed Formats). With 
      this tweak enabled, also Word documents will be handled by this 
      viewer (and not by XY's internal methods, which need Word to be 
      installed in the system).
    ! Hashing: CRC-32 did not work correctly on files > 2GB. Fixed.
    ! Icon mapping glitch since v13.00.0003. Fixed.
    ! List: View "Details with Thumbnails" drawing glitch on refresh 
      where thumbnails were smaller than icons. Fixed.
To download the latest BETA version choose a download package: (1) Installer Package, (2) No-Install Package.

:!: Note that BETA versions are work in progress and might contain fresh bugs. You have been warned.

v13.00.0005 - 2013-10-02 22:09
  +++ Checkbox Selection: Finally XY can do what Explorer can do in Win7 
      and later: Individually select multiple list items simply by 
      ticking checkboxes.
      Implemented as a List Style, you can toggle Checkbox Selection via 
      Tools | Customize List | Checkbox Selection, or via the context 
      menu of any of the existing List style Toolbar buttons, i.e. Show Grid or 
      Sticky Selection, or the new button Checkbox Selection.
      Notes:
      - Checkbox Selection works in all list views and list modes.
      - Selecting an item via checkbox does not move the focus to this 
        item. This is consciously different from Explorer's behavior and 
        IMO clearly better.
      - Right-clicking any checkbox pops the Select submenu from menu 
        Edit.
      - The checkbox has an invisible 2-pixel safety margin that 
        protects shaky clickers from missing the target too easily. In 
        other words, you can miss it by 2 pixels and still make a hit.
    + Toolbar: The Copy/Backup/Move To buttons now have the commands 
      "Configure Custom Copy..." and "Configure Backup..." in the right-
      click menu.
    ! List: View "Details with Thumbnails" drawing glitch on refresh 
      where thumbnails were smaller than icons. Fixed #2.
    * MLS: Internally updated to version 8.37.
      > TRANSLATORS: Please wait until Reference_8.37.lng is uploaded.
        You will be notified here:

v13.00.0006 - 2013-10-03 09:46
    - Configuration | Menus, Mouse, Safety | Safety Belts: Removed "Also 
      when deleting to Recycle Bin". Unchecking this was highly 
      dangerous since you would not get a warning anymore before 
      deleting items on drives without a recycle bin!
      So now this option is internally hard-coded to ON.

    + List: Now you can drop files onto AutoHotkey Script files (*.ahk).
    - Configuration | File Operations: All back to the state before 
      v13.00.0004. The way windows works this is the better option.
    ! Checkbox Selection: Checkboxes were not drawn in Windows classic 
      mode (no themes). Fixed.
    ! Outlook Drop: List not refreshed when dropping attachments to a 
      path that was not auto-refreshed. Fixed.
    ! Scripting: Single-quoted expressions tricked operators in 
      expressions like this:
        if ('a' == 'b') {
          echo 'They are the same?';
        }
      Fixed.
    ! List: In Thumbnails and Tiles modes, when you hovered over the 
      blank space to the right of the last file in a row of files, you 
      would get the file info tip for the first file on the next row. 
      Fixed.

Change Log for the latest XYplorer BETA version:

Code: Select all

v13.00.0008 - 2013-10-05 12:33
    + Configuration | Tree and List | List: Added option "Select next 
      item after delete and move". Tick it to auto-select the next item 
      in the file list after the current item has been deleted or moved 
      away. If the current item is the last item, then of course not the 
      next but the previous item is auto-selected.
      Factory default is OFF (which is also the behavior of Windows 
      Explorer). Note that in previous versions this behavior was 
      internally hard-coded to ON. Therefore, to ensure a consistent 
      experience for upgraders, the setting is turned ON when you 
      upgrade to this version.
      FYI, this setting replaces (and logically inverts) the tweak 
      NoAutoSelectAfterDeleteOrMove which is now obsolete.
    + Checkbox Selection: Now a double-click on a checkbox (which was 
      without function and had the same effect as a single click) is 
      interpreted as two fast single clicks.
    ! Tweak NoAutoSelectAfterDeleteOrMove did also suppress auto-
      selection of the moved files in the target pane. Fixed.
    ! Dropping images from Chrome didn't always work. Fixed.

Change Log for the latest XYplorer BETA version:

Code: Select all

v13.00.0009 - 2013-10-07 12:36
    + Configuration | Tabs: Added option "Going home also restores the 
      list layout". Tick it to restore the full list layout (view mode, 
      sort order, column layout, list style) when selecting the "Go 
      Home" command. Otherwise going home only changes the location.
      Factory default is OFF. Note that in previous versions this 
      behavior was internally hard-coded to ON. Therefore, to ensure a 
      consistent experience for upgraders, the setting is turned ON when 
      you upgrade to this version.
    + Configuration | Thumbnails: Added option "Zoom to fill". Tick it 
      to fill the available space with the thumbnail. Left/right parts 
      or top/bottom parts may be cropped. Using this option makes better 
      use of the available space at the expense of the cropped areas.
      Notes:
      - This setting affects how thumbnails are created and 
        stored in the cache, so you cannot apply it to already cached 
        thumbnails without recreating the thumbnails from scratch.
      - Images are never stretched to fill the space, just cropped.
      - The cropped image is centered, i.e. the cropping is done equally 
        at both of the cropped sides.
      - The quality costs of "Super-fast thumbnails" will be more 
        visible with "Zoom to fill" so it is recommendable to turn 
        "Super-fast thumbnails" OFF when "Zoom to fill" is ON.
      - Mouse Down Blow Up works fine just as expected.
    + Floating Preview: Added option "Zoom to fill" to the right-click 
      menu. See notes here above.  
    + Tweak to skip notoriously slow drives on a tree refresh, namely 
      mapped network drives, removable drives, CD-ROM drives:
        TreeRefreshSkipSlow=1

v13.00.0010 - 2013-10-08 11:01
    + Configuration | Thumbnails: Added option "No frame on cropped 
      sides". Tick it to see immediately if and where a thumbnail is 
      cropped, i.e. if and which parts of the original image are missing 
      in the thumbnail.
      Applies only if "Zoom to fill" is enabled, and if the selected
      thumbnails style has a frame (i.e. "Frame" or "Frame with 
      Shadow"). Since this just a drawing style the thumbnails don't 
      have to be recreated for this setting to take effect.      
    ! Zoom to fill: Mouse Down Blow Up did not work on animated GIFS 
      that were zoomed to fill. Fixed.
    ! Hashing: Did not work correctly under some non-Western locales. 
      Fixed.

v13.00.0011 - 2013-10-08 20:33
    - Removed "No frame on cropped sides" (added in v13.00.0010). Bloat. 
      Now the setting is internally hard-coded to ON.
    * Toolbar: Added two more settings to the right-click menu of the
