v20.40.0028 - 2019-10-07 14:47
    * Configuration | Jump to Setting: Now any previous filter is preselected in 
      the filter box. Makes it easier to type a new one.
    * Updated the help file.
    ! Configuration | General | Sort and Rename | Rename | Use dialog to rename 
      single items: If enabled you could get a crash after renaming a just newly 
      created folder. Fixed.
    ! MLS: The language file download stopped working with recent Win10 updates. 
      Fix #2. The previous fix was too broad.

v20.40.0027 - 2019-10-06 11:49
    * Media Preview: Last time the Audio Preview was revisited in v8.90.0018 - 
      2010-03-26 11:58, and some things had stopped working at some point or 
      were poorly documented.
      Here are the revised Keyboard and Mouse tricks, including a fix for 
      sub-looping that just did not work anymore as it should have.
      Keyboard shortcuts:
        Space bar               Start/Pause playing.
        Shift+Space bar         Go to beginning and stop.  
        * NOTE: Only works if file list has the focus.
      Mouse on the progress bar:
      - Go to:
        Left Mouse Down         Go to mouse position.
        Right Mouse Down        Start/Pause playing.
        Shift+Left Mouse Down   Go to beginning.
        Shift+Right Mouse Down  Go to beginning and stop.
      - Sub-Looping:
        Ctrl+Left Mouse Down    Set start of sub-loop.
        Ctrl+Right Mouse Down   Set end of sub-loop.
        Ctrl+Alt+Mouse Down     Reset sub-loop.
        * NOTE: Sub-Looping needs "Configuration | Preview | Preview | 
          Audio/Video preview" set to "Play again".
    * Media Preview: For a while now we have keyboard-driven backward and 
      forward. Works in paused and running mode, on audio and video.
      Well, the values are from v7.90.0017 - 2008-12-21 22:04 and I now think they 
      are too small, so I made them larger (that 5 sec value is copied from 
      YouTube) and also added the CTRL key for more fine-grained control:
      Now:
          Left:         5 sec backward
          Right:        5 sec forward
          Shift+Left:   30 sec backward
          Shift+Right:  30 sec forward
          Ctrl+Left:    1 sec backward (Video: Frame step backward)
          Ctrl+Right:   1 sec forward  (Video: Frame step forward)
      Before:
          Left:   Frame step backward   (Audio: 100 msec backward)
          Right:  Frame step forward    (Audio: 100 msec forward)
          Shift+Left:   1 sec backward
          Shift+Right:  1 sec forward
    ! MLS: The language file download stopped working with recent Win10 updates. 
      Fixed.

v20.40.0026 - 2019-10-05 21:55
    + CKS | Miscellaneous | Focus Functions: Added command "Focus Next Selected 
      Item" (#1064). In the List, moves the focus to the next selected item from 
      here, and moves it into view if necessary. All selections are kept.
      Also focuses the list if necessary. If no item is selected the focused 
      item is moved into view. If the focused item is selected but not current 
      item (not on Info Panel) it is made current item.
    + CKS | Miscellaneous | Focus Functions: Added command "Focus Previous Selected 
      Item" (#1065). In the List, moves the focus to the previous selected item from 
      here, and moves it into view if necessary. All selections are kept.
      See above for the rest.
    * SC selfilter enhanced: Now the first selected item can be automatically 
      focused and scrolled into view.
      Syntax: selfilter [pattern], [type (f|d)], [column], [add], [flags]
        flags: (bit field)
          1 = Focus the first selected item and scroll it into view.
      Example:
        selfilter "*.jpg", 4:=1;
    * XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0149.

    + Visual Filters: Now with potentially slow filters (i.e. "prop:") you get a 
      simple progress indicator in the Status Bar so you know what's going on.
    ! Audio Preview: The current time position was wrong with some files after 
      seeking a new position. Fixed.
    ! Windows Versions: "Windows Server 2019" was wrongly detected as "Windows 
      Server 2016". Fixed.

    ! Rename: With Auto-Refresh enabled you could not rename ("Access denied") a 
      folder in Tree or List whose child folder was watched at the same time in 
      the inactive pane. Fixed.

v20.40.0023 - 2019-10-02 17:52
  +++ Visual Filters: Now supports "prop:" as selector for properties. Syntax 
      identical to Color Filters. Here are some examples:
      
      Filter                                Match all files with
      ------------------------------------------------------------------------
      prop:dimensions:638 x *               1500 pixels width
      prop:System.Comment:love              system comment "love"
      prop:#ShortcutTarget:?*               a non-empty shortcut target
      prop:#mp3.composer:*Haydn*            Haydn in the MP3 composer tag
      prop:#mp3.title:no*                   an MP3 title starting with "no"
      prop:#Image.Fuji.FilmMode:Classic*    Film Simulation "Classic"
      prop:#AspectRatio: 16:9               an aspect ratio of 16:9
      prop:#Hash.MD5:1092b0ce7d106d3d72e737c66ea20fa1   this MD5 hash
      prop:imagex: > 1500                   a width larger 1500 pixels
      prop:#HardLinks: > 1                  more than one hardlink
      prop:CameraModel:*Canon*              "Canon" in the camera model name
      prop:fileversion:20.40*               file version number 20.40*

  +++ Visual Filters: Now supports "len:" and "lent:" as selectors for filename 
      length (with full path) and file title length (name without path). 
      The syntax is identical to the one of the "size:" selector, so you 
      can use all sorts of numerical comparison operators to define 
      limits and ranges.
      Examples:
        len: > 260    = match all files with a path/name longer than 260 characters
        lent: <= 12   = match all files with a name with 12 or fewer characters
    * Configuration | Other | Shell Integration | 64-bit Windows | Use 64-bit 
      IFilters:
      - Now if the 64-bit IFilter returns nothing then the 32-bit IFilter is 
        tried as a fallback strategy.
      - Now if the 32-bit IFilter returns nothing then the 64-bit IFilter (if on 
        64-bit Windows) is tried as a fallback strategy.
    ! Tabs: After drag-and-drop the mouse could be captured by the tab bar even 
      if XYplorer was not the foreground window. Fixed.

    + File | Rename Special | Set Extension...: Now there is an MRU list with 
      the previously used extensions.
    ! Audio Preview: The current time position was wrong with some files. Fixed.
      Note that there is still an issue with such files: When you click the 
      progress bar to jump to a new position the file will not play from the 
      exact position but somewhat off.

v20.40.0021 - 2019-09-30 19:23
    + Configuration | Colors and Styles | Colors: Added the option "Preserve 
      custom colors". Tick it to show any custom tab colors even when the tab is 
      selected and "Match selected tab with breadcrumb bar" is enabled.
      The factory default is off so the default situation is back to what was 
      before v20.30.0012 - 2019-08-31 13:39.
      Note: This raises the lost tweak TabMatchSelectedWithCrumbPrio to UI (but 
      logically reversed).
    ! Scripting | Step Dialog | Variable on Stack Dialog: The Variables list was 
      all black in Light Mode. Fixed.

    * Mouse Down Blow Up: Right-Click MDBU preview (staying up) (incl. Quick 
      Audio Preview) will now come up instantly on the inactive pane (which is 
      activated at the same time). Before, a short click was eaten by the 
      activation and you needed a longer mousedown.
      You now can as well instantly switch between right-click stay-up MDBU 
      image previews across both panes. Was not possible before.

    * Audio Preview: Now Midi files (*.mid) are previewed through Quartz, not 
      MCI anymore.
    ! Quick Audio Preview: The duration of certain MP3 files was wrongly 
      calculated. Fixed.

    + Configuration | Information | Tags | Toggle tags by column click: Added 3 
      checkboxes to let you control this setting individually for the Label, 
      Tags, and Comment column.
    * Configuration | Information | Tags | Toggle tags by column click: On Full 
      Row Select there was a conflict about how to interpret a click, a 
      mousedown, and a mouse drag on those tag columns when "Toggle tags by 
      column click" was ON.
      Solution: From now on when the clicked item is already selected then 
      "Toggle tags by column click" is ignored on Full Row Select.
    * Configuration | Information | Tags | Toggle tags by column click: On Full 
      Row Select "Toggle tags by column click" is ignored when there is no last 
      Label, Tag, or Comment existing.
    * XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0148.

    * File Move: Now when trying to move items into their own folder the 
      message "Cannot move an item into its own folder." is shown only if true 
      for *all* of the items. Otherwise (only *some* of the items):
      - On Custom Move the non-movable items are silently skipped and all others 
        are moved.
      - On Shell Move (Use Custom Copy = OFF) it's all left to be handled by 
        Windows (you will probably be prompted what to do).
    * Miscellaneous | Go To | Open Folder in Other Pane: When the focused item 
      is not selected then the command will open the currently listed folder in 
      the other pane. Had stopped working like this from 20190226.

v20.40.0016 - 2019-09-25 13:12
    * Scripting: Removed that "A user function of the same name already exists!" 
      error message (added in v20.40.0006 - 2019-09-16 16:33). The script is not 
      terminated anymore, and the function in question is silently ignored (any 
      previous function of the same name is not overwritten by it).
      Reason: The error message was probably poorly implemented. It came up too 
      often and destroyed working user scripts.
    ! Live Filter Box: With "Persistent live filters" OFF and "Cache search 
      results" ON you would get (apparently) live-filtered search results when 
      going back to a search result tab but nothing in the interface told you 
      that a Live Filter was in action. Reason: You were just seeing the cached 
      snapshot of those live-filtered search results. Fixed: Under these 
      conditions the Live Filter will persist now.
    ! Configuration | Find and Filter | Filters & Type Ahead Find | Live Filter 
      Box | Auto-select first match: Also did it when a Live Filter was removed. 
      Wrong. Fixed.
    ! SC load: Could get confused when loading a raw script since 20190919. 
      Fix #2.

    + SC swapnames enhanced: Now you can control via an argument whether to swap 
      names or bases.
      Syntax: swapnames [bases]
                bases   0 = swap names
                        1 = swap bases
                        missing or empty: honor the setting of RenameSwapBaseOnly
      Examples:
        swapnames 0;  //swap names
        swapnames 1;  //swap bases
    * Recent Location Pins: Now the current path pin is drawn fatter than the 
      others.
    ! Custom Copy: When you intra-volume-moved files to a folder that contained 
      subfolders but no files, then you got a wrong "Not enough space on the 
      target drive." warning when those files were larger than the drives 
      available free space. Fixed. Under these circumstances no additional free 
      space is needed so the warning was bogus.
    * XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0147.
    ! Swap Bases: Undo/Redo would not work across changes of the tweak. Fixed. 
      Now "Swap Names" and "Swap Bases" are treated as different actions.
    ! SC load: Could get confused when loading a raw script since 20190919. 
      Fixed.
