v19.10.0008 - 2018-07-14 17:36
    * Floating Preview | Previews of type Text, Office, Web, and Font: You 
      now have to use Ctrl+Wheel (instead of just Wheel) to switch to the next 
      file. What actually happens when wheeling inside the preview area depends 
      on the viewing preview handler and the input focus. Ctrl+Wheel will in any 
      case switch to the next when used over the title bar or the status bar of 
      the Floating Preview.
    ! Editable Small Lists: Font went small in inline rename since 20180709. 
      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.

    + Scripting got a new command.
      Name: DLog
      Action: Pops a dialog showing the current debug log.
      Syntax: dlog
      Remarks:
        - It's basically a shorthand for:
            text get("debuglog");
          but with a little more information in the header.
        - The debug log does not grow forever but auto-purges
          IF ((15 minutes since last logged event AND > 256 lines) OR > 1024 lines)
      Example:
        dlog;
    * Breadcrumb Bars: The "Windows Theme Style" (in "Configuration | Colors and 
      Styles | More Colors | Selections") did not work well with the colored 
      dropdown menus. From now on these menus always use the "XYplorer Classic 
      Style".

v19.10.0004 - 2018-07-13 14:53
    + Portable Devices: Added tweak WatchDevices, factory default is 1 (= ON). 
      It controls whether XYplorer reacts on messages sent out by Windows when 
      USB devices or Portable Devices are plugged in or out. On some Windows 10 
      systems there seems to be an abundance of such messages leading to 
      frequent (mostly unnecessary) refreshes of the tree. You can stop this now 
      by tweaking:
        WatchDevices=0
    ! Preview Pane: Since v19.00.0007 audio and video files with no associated 
      preview handler are still previewable using DirectShow/quartz.dll. 
      However, such videos would not resize on the fly on resizing the Preview 
      Pane. Fixed.
    ! Portable Devices | List: Since v19.00.0208 the Ext column shows the 
      extension in the original case. Did not work yet on Portable Devices. 
      Fixed.
    ! Portable Devices: Renaming items did not work. Fixed.
    > FYI, the ellipsis (...) of cropped texts in the list columns does not 
      work correctly in Win10 anymore: The ellipsis sets in too late. This is 
      not an XYplorer bug but a Win10 bug. File Explorer has exactly the issue.

    + SC inputselect enhanced: Now you can show line numbers in the list, just 
      pass bit 4096.
      Syntax: inputselect(header, listdata, [separator="|"], [style=1], _
                  [cancel], [width=800], [height=400], [windowcaption], [preselect])
        style: 
         4096 = Show line numbers in the list.
      Examples:
        text inputselect("Test", listfolder(), , 1 + 2048); //no line numbers
        text inputselect("Test", listfolder(), , 1 + 2048 + 4096); //line numbers
      Remarks:
        Before, showing line numbers had been hard-coded to YES. Now it's NO by 
        default, but you can turn it on if you want it.
    ! SC inputselect: Style 256 had no effect when the icons where internal 
      graphics (toolbar icons) referred to by keys. Fixed.
      Syntax: inputselect(header, listdata, [separator="|"], [style=1], _
                  [cancel], [width=800], [height=400], [windowcaption], [preselect])
        style: 
          256 = Show large (32x32) icons. In case of internal graphics: 24x24.
      Example:
        text inputselect("Test", "Delete||:del<crlf>Ghost||:ghost", <crlf>, 1 + 256 + 1024);
    ! Scripting: Some toolbar button keys could not be used to refer to toolbar 
      graphics. This issue concerned buttons with various graphical states 
      (on/off, vertical/horizontal, and the like). Not exactly a bug, but fixed 
      anyway. Now all toolbar button keys refer to a button or a state of a 
      button.
      Note that you can also explicitly show the icon for a particular state of 
      such buttons. These keys are no documented AFAIK, so ask me if you need one.

    + SC urlencode enhanced: Now you can URL-encode (aka "percent-encode") all 
      non-ASCII characters as their UTF-8 equivalents.
      Syntax: urlencode(string, flags)
        flags: (bit field)
          1 = URL-encode according to RFC 1738 (space => %20)
              Else (no 1):
                  URL-encode according to RFC 1738, except space => +
          2 = URL-encode all non-ASCII characters as their UTF-8 equivalents 
      Remarks:
        Acc. to MS docs this flag (URL_ESCAPE_AS_UTF8) is Win7 (sic!) or later.
      Example:
        text urlencode(<clp>, 2); //encode some non-ASCII characters in the clipboard
    + SC urldecode enhanced: Now you can decode strings that were encoded by 
      using the URL_ESCAPE_AS_UTF8 flag.
      Syntax: urldecode(string, flags)
        flags: (bit field)
          1 = URL-decode according to RFC 1738 (%20 => space)
              It will NOT convert + => space
              Else (no 1):
                URL-decode according to RFC 1738, except + => space
                But it also converts %20 => space
          2 = URL-decode strings that were encoded by using the 
              URL_ESCAPE_AS_UTF8 flag.
      Remarks:
        Acc. to MS docs this flag (URL_UNESCAPE_AS_UTF8) is Win8 (sic!) or later.
      Example:
        text urldecode("%E5%8C%97%E4%BA%AC", 2);  //returns "Beijing" in Chinese characters

    + SC inputselect enhanced: Now you can list a bunch of files and show them 
      with the icon but without the path. Fully automatic, just pass bit 2048.
      Syntax: inputselect(header, listdata, [separator="|"], [style=1], _
                  [cancel], [width=800], [height=400], [windowcaption], [preselect])
        style: 
         2048 = Show file items without the path (filename only).
      Remarks:
        The full path is returned for selected list item on OK.
      Example (lists the current folder):
        text inputselect("Test", listfolder(), , 1 + 2048);
    + SC inputselect enhanced: Now you can define up to three predefined fields 
      in the listdata, separated by |: Caption|Data|Icon
        Caption:  Caption to display in the list.
        Data:     String returned for the selected list item on OK.
                  If the Data field is missing/empty the Caption field is returned.
        Icon:     Full path to a file item used for the icon that's shown in the list.
                  If the Icon field is missing/empty the Data field is used for the icon.
                  If the Data field is also missing/empty the Caption field is used for the icon.
                  Note that "style" needs bit 1 to actually show any icons.
      Remarks:
        - Bit 1024 has to be set in the "style" argument to enable this feature.
        - You obviously cannot use the default separator "|" to separate the 
          items from each other when you use these "|"-separated fields. Any 
          separator without the "|" character will do.
      Syntax: inputselect(header, listdata, [separator="|"], [style=1], _
                  [cancel], [width=800], [height=400], [windowcaption], [preselect])
        style: 
         1024 = Listdata has fields.
      Example:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
  $list = <<<>>>
C:\Program Files (x86)\7-Zip\7zFM.exe
7-Zip|C:\Program Files (x86)\7-Zip\7zFM.exe
7-Zip|7-Zip Selected|C:\Program Files (x86)\7-Zip\7zFM.exe
>>>;

  text inputselect("Test: Caption|Data|Icon", $list, <crlf>, 1 + 1024);

  // 1st entry: Caption           -> Caption, Return, Icon: C:\Program Files (x86)\7-Zip\7zFM.exe
  // 2nd entry: Caption|Data      -> Caption: 7-Zip; Return, Icon: C:\Program Files (x86)\7-Zip\7zFM.exe
  // 3rd entry: Caption|Data|Icon -> Caption: 7-Zip; Return: 7-Zip Selected; Icon: C:\Program Files (x86)\7-Zip\7zFM.exe
------------------------------------------------------------------------
    ! Tree: After an auto-refresh of a (non-mini) tree due to plug in/out of USB 
      drives or portable devices any expanded network branches came back fully 
      collapsed. Fixed.
    ! List: Dbl-clicking a folder with extension "LNK" (eg: "folder.lnk") would 
      not open it but jump to "This PC". 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.
