v22.70.0220 - 2022-01-27 13:32
  +++ Dark Mode: Had a little epiphany this morning. Now these controls are dark if XY is 
      dark (even if Windows itself is not in Dark Mode!):
      - Buttons
      - Scrollbars
      Caveat: You need Win 10 or higher.
      Still missing: Title Bar, Menu Bar, and (weirdly) native Combo Boxes that just don't 
      want to behave. Working on it...
    + Configuration | Preview | Mouse Down Blow Up | General | Movement: Added tweak 
      MDBULoupeSpeed. Factory default is 100 (percent). This, for example, would make it 
      half as fast:
        MDBULoupeSpeed=50
      Note that only with value 100 the mouse up on the moved, blown up original (and 
      thereby closing it) will end up at the exact same point on the thumbnail.
    * Configuration | Preview | Mouse Down Blow Up | General | Movement: The loupe speed 
      for MDBU on icons is now half as fast as before.
    * Configuration | General | Startup & Exit | No network browsing on startup: Probably 
      found a better fix (see v22.70.0204). Now the correct drive icon and name should be 
      shown for unavailable network drives, without any delays.

To update to this BETA version from XYplorer, hold down the CTRL key while you click Help | Online Support | Check for Updates. To download it, choose a 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.

    ! Configuration | General | Startup & Exit | No network browsing on startup: Mapped 
      network drives were still accessed when starting up on "This PC" which could lead to 
      long delays when they were not available. Fixed.

    + SC get("bytesselected"): More flags:
      Syntax: get("bytesselected", [pane=a], [flags])
        flags: 1 = Show thousand separators.
                   On combi with flag 2: Show exact size as well.
               2 = Friendly format.
               4 = Size on disk.
      Example:

v22.70.0105 - 2022-01-24 12:24
    + Added a tweak to define a list of extensions for file types that only have 
      64-bit thumbnail providers. This is the factory default:
        Thumbs64Ext=afphoto.afdesign.afpub.c4d.sldasm.slddrw.sldprt.xar
      FYI, this tweak exists since 20210402 but was never mentioned in the 
      change log.
    + Size on Disk: Now it also does it correctly for sparse files.
    ! Thumbnails: Many less common file types have not received thumbnails since 
      some changes on 20220109. Fixed.
    ! File Info Tips: The tips for items in "C:\Windows\System32" actually 
      showed the information for the mirror items in "C:\Windows\SysWOW64" if 
      they existed. Fixed.

    * File | Rename Special | Batch Rename...: The recent change from 
      v22.60.0101 - 2021-12-18 16:43 still resulted in redundant increment 
      suffixes, e.g. when renaming items using file specific variables (eg 
      <datem yyyymmdd>-<prop size>/i) in the pattern. Improved again.
    ! SC ThumbsConf: Always refreshed the thumbnails if the "Transparency" flag 
      was passed, even if it did not change the current value. Fixed.
    ! Verbatim Tooltips: The tips on key-up did not work in the This PC list. 
      Fixed.

      should. Fixed.
    ! Thumbnails: EMF and WMF files did not show thumbnails. Fixed.
    ! Thumbnails: Found yet another way to meet white thumbnails. Fixed.

v22.70.0101 - 2022-01-21 17:21
    + Scripting got a new command.
      Name: LLog
      Action: Pops a dialog showing the current load log (aka load times).
      Syntax: llog
      Remarks:
        - It's basically a shorthand for:
            text get("loadtimes");
          but with a little more information in the header.
      Example:
        llog;
    + Configuration | Preview | Mouse Down Blow Up | Mouse Down on Thumbnails 
      and Icons: Added option "Remember relative position". Tick it to remember the 
      relative position of the blow ups on file icons (relative to the point of 
      mouse down).
      The relative position is now remembered across sessions.
      Raises tweak MDBURememberPosition to UI.
    * Tools | Customize List | Size Column Format: Renamed "Show Space Used" to 
      "Show Size on Disk". It shows the actual disk space used (based on 
      required clusters and accounting for compression), not the size of the 
      files.
      Note that the Status Bar always shows the real uncompressed size of the 
      selected files.
    > List Columns | Size on Disk | Cell Context Menu: Live Filter and Quick 
      Search currently don't work with this column. Later...
    * Info Panel | Properties: Renamed "Space used:" to "Size on disk:" and also 
      modified its meaning: Now it takes any existing compression into account, 
      for individual file sizes as well as for folder sizes.
    * MLS: Internally updated to version 8.142.
      > TRANSLATORS: Please wait until Reference_8.142.lng is uploaded.

    * Thumbnails Cache: Now the list does not have to be completely empty (see 
      v22.70.0021), it just has to have no items with thumbnails to get the 
      thumbnail cache files permanently deleted on "View | Caches | Refresh 
      Thumbnails".
    * View | Calculate Folder Sizes: Now when one or more folders are selected 
      and these folders show their cached folder sizes then this command will 
      always refresh the displayed folder sizes from reality, no matter the 
      setting of the CachedFolderSizesOnCalc tweak.

    + MDBU | Remember Position: Now it is optional and off by default. Currently 
      it can be enabled only by a tweak (UI setting will come later):
        MDBURememberPosition=1
    + Configuration | Information | File Info Tips & Hover Box | Extra fields: 
      Now "Shortcut Target" shows any existing command line switches in the 
      tooltip.
    + Meta Tab: Also here the Shortcut Target info now shows any existing 
      command line switches.
    ! Resolving Shortcuts: A long-standing issue with bitness-dependent shortcut 
      targets could probably be fixed. I found a way to determine whether an 
      alleged "C:\Program Files (x86)\" should rather be "C:\Program Files\": I 
      simply check which of the targets actually exist. In many real world cases 
      this will make it return the correct target.
    + Thumbnails Cache: When a list is completely empty but a pair of thumbnail 
      cache files for it still exists (for images that are not here anymore) 
      calling "View | Caches | Refresh Thumbnails" (only possible in a view with 
      thumbnails) will now permanently delete those thumbnail cache files.

    * Locked MDBU Location: Wasn't happy with yesterday's algorithm and changed it:
      - The location is only locked (= stored and remembered) if the blow up is 
        beyond (not covering) the point of the mousedown. 
      - The locked position is restored to the absolute distance from the mouse 
        pointer. It is therefore always exactly the same, regardless of the size 
        of the blow up.
      - The locking is done for both dimensions independently: e.g. you can lock 
        the horizontal position to an absolute distance from the mousedown (by 
        dragging the left (right) border of the blow up to the right (left) of 
        the mousedown) while the vertical position is still centered over the 
        mousedown (by keeping the upper and lower border of the blow up above 
        and below the mousedown).
      - Consequently, you can stop any locking by dragging the current blow up 
        over the mousedown.
      - If the locked position is completely outside the screen it is ensured 
        that some part of the next blow up is visible in screen.
      - If "Configuration | Preview | Mouse Down Blow Up | General | Shrink to 
        fit" is enabled then "Allow panning" is internally ON if the blow up is 
        in a locked position. This is allows you to change the position if you 
        are not happy with it.
    + Configuration | General | Sort and Rename | Rename | Serial rename by Up 
      and Down keys: Now in thumbnails views with more than one caption line you 
      can use PageUp/PageDown for serial rename.
