v18.60.0102 - 2018-01-10 15:59
    * Status Bar: Changed warning text red color to a more readable darker red.
    ! Scripting: The recent change to allow literal dots in unquoted XY-native 
      variables was not yet perfectly implemented. These examples did not work:
        echo "now: " . <date hh:nn:ss.fff>;
        $ms = "fff"; echo "now: " . <date hh:nn:ss.$ms>;
      Fixed. Now they do.

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.

v18.60.0101 - 2018-01-09 15:17
    * Scripting: Since v16.80.0006 - 2016-05-25 13:35 you had to quote XY-native 
      variables if they contained any dots (to prevent that the dots were treated
      as string concatenators). From now on this is not necessary anymore. Dots 
      inside XY-native variables are not treated as string concatenators (and 
      hence cannot be used as string concatenators here!) anymore.
      So this works now as expected:
        echo <date hh:nn:ss.fff>;
        echo <prop #audio.bitrate>;
      But quoting them works as well, of course:
        echo "<date hh:nn:ss.fff>";
        echo "<prop #audio.bitrate>";
     * Scripting: Experimentally you now can use script variables inside native 
       variables, for example:
         $ms = "fff"; echo <date hh:nn:ss.$ms>;
         $g = "genericfiletype"; echo  <get $g '{:Image}'>;
       But remember that the dot as string concatenator does NOT work here. So 
       this will NOT work:
         $g1 = "generic"; $g2 = "filetype"; echo  <get $g1.$g2 '{:Image}'>;

v18.60.0014 - 2018-01-08 18:36
    ! Custom Copy: In a Rich Copy situation (source files are from multiple 
      locations, some of them have the same name), and you decline to perform a 
      Rich Copy, and you configured any collisions to "Affix last modified date 
      to existing", the latter would not have happened successfully if the 
      target folder was completely empty. Fixed.
    * XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0125.
    * Updated the help file.

    ! Auto-Refresh: Auto-Refresh is auto-suspended while a deletion is going on 
      since v13.60.0011 - 2014-01-15 14:42. But since 20170914 the suspended 
      state was not undone anymore afterwards. Fixed.

v18.60.0011 - 2018-01-06 15:51
    + Help | List All Commands...: In this list (and other lists where TAB 
      characters are used to create columns) the right-click menu now offers 
      commands to copy the individual columns to the clipboard.
      Example:
        Copy Column: #101
        Copy Column: File | To Clipboard | Item Path/Name(s)
        Copy Column: (Ctrl+P)
    + Help: Added tweak to specifiy a custom help file to use instead of the 
      default "<xypath>\XYplorer.chm". Can be used to for translated versions of 
      the help.
      State the full path to the custom help file, or relative to app path, e.g.:
        HelpFileCustom=XYplorer_ru.chm
    > Tip: This script will return the current help file full path:
        echo get("help");
    + Folder Thumbs: Added another key to specify a border color for the folder 
      thumbnail background. Looks a bit better with a light border IMO.
        clrFolderThumbsBorder=14737632
      It's only used when it's not 0 (zero) AND when the background coloring 
      tweak is used as well (clrFolderThumbs1, clrFolderThumbs2).
    * Tabs: Now a start path passed by command line will try to reuse any 
      existing tab that already points to that path. Unless "Configuration | 
      Startup & Exit | Open command line start path in new tab" is ticked, of 
      course.
    ! Auto-Refresh: Would auto-refresh the list after a completed file operation 
      even if "Auto-Refresh" was off or "Suspend Auto-Refresh" was on. Fixed.

v18.60.0010 - 2018-01-05 23:27
    + Folder Thumbs: Now you can tweak the background coloring of folder 
      thumbnails. It's a vertical gradient, the 1st color is the top, the 2nd 
      color is the bottom. This e.g. would be a light grey gradient:
        clrFolderThumbs1=15461355
        clrFolderThumbs2=15132390
      Those numbers are color decimals.
      Tip: To convert HTML #RRGGBB colors to color decimals use this formula:
        echo 0xBBGGRR;
      If both of those values are 0 then the default colors are used (the crass 
      traditional yellow).
    % Custom Copy: Estimation of the remaining time improved.
    * XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0124.

v18.60.0009 - 2018-01-04 20:55
    * Custom Copy: I always found it a bit off-putting that, if only one item 
      was copied/moved, the final dialog did not show the filename of that one 
      copied/moved/skipped file. Now it does.
    % Custom Copy: Estimation of the remaining time is now only shown from 25% 
      of total bytes and 100 files onwards. Earlier guessing simply doesn't cut 
      it.
    * XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0123.

    % Custom Copy: Attempt to improve the estimation of the remaining time.
    ! Quick Audio Preview: Little drawing glitch with fonts that have variable 
      digit widths. Fixed.
    ! Custom Copy: With "On name collisions" set to "Suffix increment to 
      existing" or "Affix current date to existing" or "Affix modified date to 
      existing" (all 3 result in a rename of the source file) the copy did not 
      happen when source and target file were identical, i.e. when you attempted 
      to duplicate a file in the original location. Just the rename happened.
      Fixed. Now the file is first renamed, then the renamed file copied back to 
      its original name.
    ! Rename: Since Win8 mapped drives cannot be renamed anymore (i.e. the 
      previous method stopped working and nothing else is in sight). But you 
      still could enter rename mode. Fixed.
    * XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0122.

    ! View | Show Items | Hide Protected Operating System Files: Toggling it did 
      not have immediate effect anymore. Fixed.
    ! Find Files: The change in v18.60.0005 had the undesired side effect that 
      toggling to Branch View would also invoke a Quick Search for "*". Fixed.
    ! Tabs: A locked startup tab was overwritten by a command line startup path 
      if the Tree was locked as well. Fixed: A new tab is opened.
    ! Tabs: A startup tab was overwritten by a command line startup path if the 
      Tree was locked, even if "Configuration | General | Startup & Exit | Open 
      command line start path in new tab" was enabled. Fixed: A new tab is 
      opened.

    * Find Files: Stating no pattern was ever since equivalent to stating * as 
      pattern (match all). Now this auto-wildcard is also shown in the Search 
      Information Bar in the List, and in the <get find_queryparsed> variable.
    ! Hover Box: Would sometimes pop when cursor had already left the list. Fixed.
    ! Thumbnails: Wouldn't create TIF thumbnails in quality "Smooth" if "Show 
      thumbnails for RAW files" was OFF. Fixed.

    + ContextMenu64: Now holding the SHIFT key while triggering the menu will pop 
      the "extended" 64-bit context menu (using the CMF_EXTENDEDVERBS flag).
      FYI, the same always worked with the 32-bit context menu.
    * ContextMenu64: New version 1.2.5.0.
    * SC quicksearch: Now it ignores any of the following settings that may hide 
      stuff from the list. They cannot hide anything from SC quicksearch anypore:
      - Configuration | Tree and List | Items in Tree and List | Show hidden files and folders
      - Configuration | Tree and List | Items in Tree and List | Show system files and folders
      - Configuration | Tree and List | Items in Tree and List | Hide protected operating system files
      - Configuration | Tree and List | Items in Tree and List | Show junctions
      - View | Show Items | Show Folders in List
    + Configuration | Startup & Exit | Save changes to disk immediately: Added 
      option "Configuration" to the "Apply To..." button. Will save the INI file 
      to disk after you OK the Configuration dialog.
    - Configuration | Startup & Exit: Removed option "Autosave settings after 
      this many minutes". It has been replaced by the more powerful and easier 
      to understand "Save changes to disk immediately".
