v10.70.0201 - 2012-01-03 11:57
    + Status Bar: Added a button to the right of the Status Bar which 
      serves to toggle the Info Panel. The button's right-click menu has 
      a couple of related commands.
    * Menu Window: Renamed "Show Background Bar" to "Show Status Bar 
      Buttons".
    ! Visual Filters: Unfiltered tabs in the inactive pane could 
      silently inherit filters from the active pane on startup and on 
      copying files to the inactive pane. 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 | Backup your Application Data Folder)
before running a new BETA version. This will also help in fixing any fresh bugs.

Summary of the latest XYplorer Official Release.

Download: http://www.xyplorer.com/download.htm

Code: Select all

v10.70.0000 - 2011-12-21 12:00
    = NEW OFFICIAL RELEASE. Main changes since last release:
  +++ Tabsets. Now you can save and load the tabset of a pane, that's 
      all tabs including their layout (tab settings and tabwise list 
      settings) and contents (cached search data, find settings, homes, 
      history, etc.). (Pro Edition Only)
  +++ Visual Filters. Now Visual Filters support environment variables 
      and XYplorer native variables.
  +++ Flat View. Renamed it to "Branch View". Reason: "Flat View" had 
      been trademarked by a competing product.
  +++ Branch View and Name Search. Now you can branch view and search 
      whole servers.
  +++ Sorting. The new command Previous Order allows you to toggle 
      between the two recent sort orders.

v10.60.0135 - 2011-12-21 09:56
    * Updated the help file.
    ! Menu View | Views: Checkmarks were not updated. Fixed.

    * SC tabset: Operations "openas" and "loadas" have been removed. 
      Clones are now passed in the "name" argument using the "as:"-
      syntax. At least one space needs to be before and after "as:".
      New Syntax: tabset([operation=open], [name], [pane=a])
      Examples:      
      //Select a tabset and load a clone of it named "clone1":
        OLD: tabset("openas", , , "clone1");
        NEW: tabset("open", " as: clone1");
      //Select a tabset and load a clone (name is prompted for):
        OLD: tabset("openas");
        NEW: tabset("open", " as: ");
      //Load tabset "work" as clone named "clone1":
        OLD: tabset("loadas", "work", , "clone1");
        NEW: tabset("load", "work as: clone1");
    + SC tabset enhanced: Now also "browse" supports the "as:"-syntax.
      Examples:      
      //Browse for a tabset and load a clone of it named "clone1":
        NEW: tabset("browse", " as: clone1");
      //Browse for a tabset and load a clone (name is prompted for):
        NEW: tabset("browse", " as: ");
      //Browse for a tabset in E:\Test and load a clone of it:
        NEW: tabset("browse", "E:\Test as: ");
    ! Calculating Folder Sizes could get confused when the list was 
      resorted while the calculation was in progress. Fixed.

v10.60.0130 - 2011-12-15 12:02
    * Tabsets: Now tabsets opened as clone via Open As are stored as 
      such in the MRU list. Original source name and clone name are 
      separated by " as: ", e.g. "work_1 as: clone1". If you select such 
      a "clone item" from the MRU list, the cloning is repeated exactly 
      as it was done the first time. This makes it very comfortable to 
      work with different cloned (effectively read-only) tabsets.
      Tip: If the current tabset has been loaded as a clone then 
      selecting the first MRU item amounts to a "Revert to Saved".
    + SC tabset enhanced: The above syntax is also supported by both 
      "open" and "load". Remember that "open" offers you a list of 
      tabsets to choose from, whereas "load" directly loads a specific 
      tabset.
      Examples for "load":
      // open tabset "work_1" as "clone1"
        tabset("load", "work_1 as: clone1");
      // open current tabset as "clone1"
        tabset("load", " as: clone1");
      // open tabset "work_1" as clone (prompt for name of clone)  
        tabset("load", "work_1 as: ");
      // open current tabset as clone (prompt for name of clone)  
        tabset("load", " as: ");
      Examples for "open":
      // select a tabset in E:\Tabsets and open as "clone1"
        tabset("open", "E:\Tabsets as: clone1");
      // select a tabset and open as "clone1"
        tabset("open", " as: clone1");
      // select a tabset and open as clone (prompt for name of clone)  
        tabset("open", " as: ");
    * Menu View | Folder View Settings: Renamed two commands to 
      something less confusing:
      - OLD: Save Folder View As...
        NEW: Apply this Folder View Also To...
      - OLD: Save Folder View As Default
        NEW: Define this Folder View as Default

    * SC resolvepath: Before, under Vista/Win7 a relative path was 
      returned with a leading ".\", e.g.:
      ::text resolvepath ("C:\Apps\XY\XYplorer.exe", "C:\Apps\", 1);
        Win7: -> .\XY\XYplorer.exe
        XP:   -> XY\XYplorer.exe
      Now under all systems the relative path is returned without ".\".
    * Tabsets: The change above (relative paths format) also affects how 
      tabset names are displayed in Vista/Win7, namely now w/out ".\".

v10.60.0128 - 2011-12-14 14:10
    + Menu Tabsets: New command "Open As..." allows you to open a tabset 
      as clone. Useful if you want to keep your original tabsets 
      unchanged.
      The name for the clone is prompted for (defaults to "Clone#", where 
      # stands for the number of the current pane). Note that any 
      existing tabset of the same name as the clone will be overwritten 
      without any warning!
    > Toolbar | Tabsets: Hold CTRL when selecting a tabset from the MRU 
      list to load it as a clone.
    + SC tabset enhanced. New operation "openas" allows you to select a 
      tabset from a folder of your choice and load it as a clone under a 
      name of your choice. Just like with loadas, no overwriting prompt 
      will appear before any existing tabset of that name is 
      overwritten.
      Syntax: tabset([operation=open], [name], [pane=a], [nameofclone])
          "openas" = Open/Load a copy of a stored tabset under a new 
                  name, in other words: load a clone.
                - Parameter "name" points to the folder from which to 
                  select the source tabset. Defaults to the tabsets 
                  folder (<xydata>\Panes).                
                - Parameter "nameofclone" is used to state the name 
                  of the clone. The name is resolved relative to the 
                  tabsets folder.
      Example:
      //Select a tabset and load a clone of it named "clone1":
        tabset("openas", , , "clone1");
      //Select a tabset and load a clone (name is prompted for):
        tabset("openas");
    * SC tabset: Operation "loadas" does not prompt for overwriting 
      anymore even if the name for the clone was prompted for.
    ! List & Tabs: The current tab could get temporarily out of touch 
      with reality after changing list modes, which under certain 
      conditions surfaced as suddenly all columns being shown. Fixed.
To download the latest BETA version choose a download package: (1) Installer Package, (2) No-Install Package.

    + Visual Filters: Now the VF Toolbar button's tooltip and the Status 
      Bar first section's tooltip both show the current Visual Filter 
      pattern, which is the active pattern after any variables have been 
      resolved.
      This is useful when you have a VF like this and want to know what 
      your filter actually looks like:
        "Matching Clipboard" <clipboard>
    ! Visual Filters: For about five weeks (since Sticky Section) 
      toggling different VFs on different tabs did not work as it 
      should. Sometimes the last filter from another tab was applied. 
      Fixed.
