v19.00.0213 - 2018-07-04 14:26
    + Configuration | Preview | Mouse Down Blow Up: Added option "Allow dragging 
      items by the thumbnail". Tick it to enable dragging items by the 
      thumbnail. The price you pay for this is a 150 msec delay before you get 
      the blow up (in case you don't drag). XYplorer uses this time to decide 
      whether you intend a drag or a blow up.
      Note that if unticked you can still drag a file in thumbnails view by 
      grabbing it by the caption.
      This lifts the MDBUAllowDragByThumb tweak to the UI.
    * Configuration | Preview | Mouse Down Blow Up: Renamed "On file icons as 
      well" to "Enable blow ups on file icons as well". Had the space and the 
      time.
    * Updated the help file.

v19.00.0212 - 2018-07-03 13:47
    + SC inputselect enhanced: Now you can have it return all items in their 
      current order. Of course, this is only useful when combined with style 16, 
      otherwise the order is always the one from the original listdata.
      Syntax: inputselect(header, listdata, [separator="|"], [style=1], _
                  [cancel], [width=800], [height=400], [windowcaption], [preselect])
        style: 
           16 = Allow user to re-order items with drag & drop. Also Ctrl+Up/Down can be used.
          512 = Return all items in their current order.
      Example:
        text inputselect("Test", "a|b|c|d", 3:=512+16);
    ! Fixed a number of various little glitches and optimized some network 
      related speed issues.

    * List: Now the Ext column shows the extension in the original case. Before, 
      it was shown in lower case.
      If you still want the old behavior there is a new tweak:
        ListColumnExtLowerCase=1
    * SC getpathcomponent(), gpc(): Now component "ext" returns the extension in 
      the original case. Before, it was returned in lower case.
        echo  getpathcomponent(, "ext");
    * SC get(): Now get("curitem", "ext") returns the extension in the original 
      case. Before, it was returned in lower case.
        echo get("curitem", "ext");
    * Tree: Before, when drag-drop-moving a folder to a new parent that parent 
      was expanded afterwards to show the new child. This does not happen 
      anymore. Too smart, too annoying.
      If you still want the old behavior there is a new tweak:
        TreeExpandTargetFolder=1
    * Portable Devices: In Windows Server editions before 2016 portable devices 
      had not been supported by factory default. In such environments XYplorer 
      would greet you with error 429 on startup. Well, not anymore.

    + Toolbar: Now the button push effect (image is shifted 1 pixel down and 
      right on push) is optional. You can toggle it in Tools | Customize Toolbar 
      | Options | Button Push Effect.
      Before, the button push effect was hard-coded to ON. Now the new factory 
      default is OFF. Going with the times...
    + Tools | Customize List | Ignore Articles When Sorting: Now the setting is 
      also applied to Custom Columns. So now you can use it to sort your audio 
      files by artist name, song title, album title etc., ignoring all those 
      "the" and "a".
    + Configuration | General | Sort and Rename | Sort | Natural numeric sort 
      order: Now the setting is also applied to Extra Columns (it had been 
      already applied to Custom Columns).
    ! HTML Preview: App got auto-foregrounded (some "smartness" by the dumb
      WebBrowser control) when the previewed HTML file was changed by another 
      process. Fixed. Now the preview ignores changes by other processes if the 
      app is in the background.
    > Portable Devices: Seems like Windows Server OSs do not automatically 
      support the MTP protocol needed to talk to portable devices. Added some 
      debug info to the error message you will see when starting up on those OSs.

    = MAINTENANCE RELEASE.
  +++ Portable Devices. Microsoft had broken XYplorer's portable devices support 
      with Windows 10 version 1703 (Creators Update), and you could not see or 
      manage files on your phone, tablet, or camera anymore.
      XYplorer v19.00.0200 now successfully works around this bug and restores 
      full portable devices support for all versions of Windows 10.

    * Mouse Down Blow Up and Thumbnails: From now on you cannot left- or 
      right-drag a file by the thumbnail anymore when Mouse Down Blow Up is 
      enabled. Advantage: The blow-up is click-instant now. No need anymore to 
      hold down the mouse for 150 msecs.
      FYI, to drag the file in thumbnails view you can drag it by the caption.
      If you still want the previous behavior you can use this new tweak:
        MDBUAllowDragByThumb=1

    * Size Column Format | Bars: Experimentally the background of all non-empty 
      bars is now drawn in a light-blue. Reason: I found the previous way a bit 
      misleading sometimes. And ugly.
    * Help | Various Information: Improved the Windows version information #2.
    ! Portable Devices: "Paste" commands were greyed out in the Edit menu when 
      they should be available. Fixed.

    * Help | Various Information: Improved the Windows version information.
    * File | Exit without Saving: Ever since we have an Action Log the log file is 
      invariably saved on exit, even on "Exit without Saving". Reason: The Action 
      Log should be in sync with the actions performed on the file system.
      But now I think "without Saving" is "without Saving". So nothing is saved 
      anymore on "Exit without Saving".
    ! Portable Devices: On Windows 10 then auto-refresh on plug in/out did not 
      work. Fixed.
    ! Portable Devices: Fixed a couple of glitches.
