v13.10.0138 - 2013-10-27 13:30
    + Breadcrumbs: Added context sensitive commands "Copy Real Path" 
      (only visible when the current path is a special path) and "Copy 
      Special Path" (only visible when the current path is a real path 
      that has a special path counterpart). For example:
        Special Path: Desktop\Desk\
        Real Path: C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\Donald\Desktop\Desk\
    % Breadcrumbs: Smoother switch between dropdowns of the same 
      breadcrumb. Attempt #2.
    ! Breadcrumbs: After "Go Here in Other Pane" or "Swap Panes" the BC 
      bar in the inactive pane ended up with the active colors. Fixed.
    ! Outlook Drop: Tried to fix some obscure problems with some 
      systems. Shot into the dark.
    ! Locked Mini Tree: On hovering a wrong Tree Path Tracing and Open 
      State Icon was drawn when the tree did not contain the currently 
      browsed path. Fixed.

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.

    ! Breadcrumbs: In the last version they had lost their shadows. 
      Fixed.
    ! Breadcrumbs: Wrong downward path possible with "Configuration | 
      Refresh, Icons, History | History | History per tab" OFF. Fixed.

    % Breadcrumbs: Smoother switch between dropdowns of the same 
      breadcrumb.
    + Command Line Switches: Added switch /hwnd. If feeding a script 
      into XYplorer you can pass the window handle of the target 
      XYplorer instance with this switch if you know it. If you want to 
      feed the script into this XYplorer, you can simply use the 
      variable <hwnd>, for example:
        run "<xy> /script=""::msg 'Hi!';"" /flg=2 /hwnd=<hwnd>", , 0, 0;
      But, of course, to run this script in this XYplorer you could also
      simply do this:
        msg 'Hi!';

v13.10.0127 - 2013-10-25 14:56
    + Breadcrumbs: Added command "Paste and Go" to the context menu of 
      the BC. Goes to the current clipboard contents (can be a folder or 
      file, or folder or file name).
      When hovering the command, the Status Bar displays the text found 
      in the clipboard.
    + Breadcrumbs: Added command "Paste and Search" to the context menu of 
      the BC. Searches the current path for the current clipboard 
      contents.
      When hovering the command, the Status Bar displays the text found 
      in the clipboard, prefixed with a "?".
    * Configuration | Tree and List | List | Select last used subfolder: 
      Now only takes effect when browsing by the list or by history, or 
      when going up or down. Before, also the breadcrumb menu did it.
    * Tabs: Slightly changed the drawing of tabs in XYplorer Classic 
      style. Less horizontal lines at the bottom.
    ! Breadcrumbs: Did not auto-update the downward path if any of the 
      contained folders was renamed. Fixed.
    ! Wrong icons in popup menus were possible for items ending in 
      numeric extensions (e.g. *.7). Fixed.
    ! Breadcrumbs: Ctrl+Wheel over List would not affect the BC font 
      size when it should. Fixed.
    ! Toolbar: The empty end of the toolbar was partly sensitive to 
      clicks, hovering, and dragging. Fixed.
    > Tip: Run a 2nd instance with factory defaults via Address Bar:
        ::run """<xy>"" /fresh";
      Improves on a tip given in v12.40.0212. Now the <xy> path can have 
      spaces in it.

v13.10.0122 - 2013-10-24 13:58
    * Breadcrumbs are now called "Breadcrumb Bars".
    ! Configuration | Fonts | Main Contents: Would not affect the 
      Breadcrumbs font size. Fixed.
    ! Configuration | Colors | Reset Colors: Some colors were not reset. 
      Fixed.
    ! Breadcrumbs: Dropdowns did still not pop for certain locale 
      settings. Fixed.
    ! Breadcrumb menu was not always in sync with Breadcrumb Bar. Fixed.
    ! Branch View: Sorting by Path could go wrong when files and folders 
      with the same title (name minus extension) existed in the same 
      location and with "Sort filenames by base" enabled. Fixed.
    ! Tree: After visiting a tab with a non-available path and then 
      returning to an available path tab custom file icons would not be 
      displayed as expected after certain operations. Fixed.
    ! Open in New Background Tab used wrong auto-default folder view 
      setting. Fixed.
    * Directional formatting codes protection: Before it was like this:
        When opening a file containing any DFC, you are warned.
        NOTE: Because this is the most dangerous part, this warning 
        cannot be turned off! You get it independently of the setting of 
        "Directional formatting codes protection".
      However, this lead to unwanted warnings with files with Arabic 
      names. So from now on, you get this warning only if "Directional 
      formatting codes protection" it enabled.

v13.10.0120 - 2013-10-23 11:50
     + Various information dialogs: Now you can right-click the header 
       zone and choose "Copy Subject to Clipboard" from the context 
       menu. Might be helpful sometimes.
     * Breadcrumbs: Improved color contrasts on extreme user-defined 
       color configurations.
     ! List: Since v9.11.0009 - 2010-05-25 20:33 there were too many 
       auto-refresh events happening in the list due to a too generous 
       logic. Typically notable on drive C: where background processes 
       might be doing internal file affecting tasks in some deep 
       subfolder. Fixed.

     + Configuration | Colors: Now you can configure the Breadcrumbs 
       colors.
     + Breadcrumbs: Now the setting of "Configuration | Menus, Mouse, 
       Safety | Mouse | Middle-click opens folder in new tab" is honored.
     ! Breadcrumbs: Dropdowns did not pop for DBCS languages and some 
       other locales (Hungarian; Vietnamese). Fixed.
     ! Breadcrumbs: When a folder in the downward path was deleted the 
       current folder was falsely colored as being part of the downward 
       path. Fixed.
     ! Breadcrumbs: Dropdown vanished when list was auto-refreshed. 
       Attempt to limit this somewhat.

     + Address Bar, Breadcrumbs: Now the setting of "Show hidden files 
       and folders" and "Show system files and folders" is honored by 
       the dropdowns.
     + Breadcrumbs: Added option "Show Drive Labels".
     * Breadcrumbs: When space is too small and paths fall off the left 
       edge of the BC, now upward paths get priority over downward paths.
     ! Breadcrumbs: Added debug option "Fix Hong Kong Traditional Bug" 
       for those who still have problems popping the dropdowns. Please 
       tick the options and see whether it helps.

    + Breadcrumbs: Finally solved the problem of too many subfolders 
      leading to oversized menus. After plan A to E failed I opted to 
      write a new control class from scratch, argh. But hey, there will 
      be use for this in many other places later.
      It *almost* works like a scrollable menu, with a couple of subtle 
      differences, but nothing of any gravity IMO. Tested for XP (non-
      classic) only at the moment.
    + Breadcrumbs: Improved smartness of component ellipsing. Now 
      components > 20 characters can be ellipsed, but this is only done 
      when necessary, i.e. when the whole path does not fit in the 
      space.

    + Breadcrumbs: Now you can modify the font size of the Breadcrumbs 
      on-the-fly by Ctrl+Wheel over any of the Breadcrumbs. Cool!
    - Tweak CrumbMiniFontMilliSize removed.
    + Breadcrumbs: You now can configure whether an icon is shown and 
      whether the font is bold.
    + Breadcrumbs: Components > 32 characters are ellipsed. A tooltip 
      shows the full name. Yes, yes, will be improved later...
    + Breadcrumbs: If you show the downward path, the existence of the 
      path is now checked and only the existing parts are shown.
    * XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0037.      
    ! Menu File | Open Focused Item: Using the default shortcut 
      Ctrl+Enter for this item would wrongly bypass any Portable File 
      Association and open the file by the OS associated application. 
      Fixed.
