v10.20.0014 - 2011-09-18 12:28
! Toolbar: Drag-and-dropping stuff on a drive button had stopped
working since the introduction of DUBs in v10.20. Fixed.
Note that BETA versions are work in progress and might contain fresh bugs. You have been warned.Code: Select all
v10.20.0013 - 2011-09-17 11:07
+ Auto-Rotate: Added Auto-Rotate to Image Preview, Full Screen
Preview, Thumbnails, and Mouse Down Blow Up.
Digital Cameras with orientation sensors allow auto-rotation of
portrait images by reflecting the positioning of the camera with
respect to the ground in the picture's EXIF data. So, the Auto-
Rotate feature works only with picture files that contain EXIF
data, usually JPEGs and TIFFs (extensions: jpg, jpeg, tif, tiff).
To enable Auto-Rotate for the Image Preview, its Mouse Down Blow
Up, and the Full Screen Preview, tick Configuration | Preview |
Auto-rotate preview.
To enable Auto-Rotate for the Thumbnails and their Mouse Down Blow
Up, tick Configuration | Thumbnails | Auto-rotate thumbnails.
Tip: You can as well toggle Auto-Rotate for the Image Preview in
the orange button dropdown menu on the Preview panel.
* Configuration | File Operations | No progress dialog on intra-
volume moves: The setting now also controls whether the Summary
Report is shown.
! Info Panel | Report: Various Reports did not work anymore after
the ESC key had been pressed. The bug emerged around 20110616.
Fixed.
* Updated the help file.
Code: Select all
v10.20.0012 - 2011-09-14 12:10
+ Configuration | General: Added option "Mixed sort on path
columns". Check to use a mixed sort (mix folders and files when
sorting) always on the columns Path (Search Results) and Original
Location (Recycle Bin).
+ Toolbar | Delete: The button now has a context menu.
* Updated the help file.

v10.20.0011 - 2011-09-13 10:44
+ SC run enhanced: Added parameter "show".
Syntax: run command, [directory], [wait=0], [show=1]
[show]:
0 = Hides the window.
1 = [Default] Activates and displays a window.
2 = Activates the window and displays it as a minimized window.
3 = Activates the window and displays it as a maximized window.
Examples:
::run "notepad <xypath>\startup.ini", , , 0; //hidden
::run "notepad <xypath>\startup.ini", , , 1; //normal
::run "notepad <xypath>\startup.ini", , , 2; //minimized
::run "notepad <xypath>\startup.ini", , , 3; //maximized
Note:
It depends on the called application whether it honors the show
parameter. Some ignore it.
* SC attrstamp: Now the attr argument is case-insensitive. Both
lines work identically:
attrstamp("r", 3); //toggle readonly in selected items
attrstamp("R", 3); //toggle readonly in selected items
! Drop Context Menu: "Create Folder(s) Here" and "Create Branch(es)
Here" both acquired two bugs recently.
- They renamed the top folder on collision. This was not the
original behavior of the commands.
- They would not process multiple selected items at once anymore.
Both fixed.

v10.20.0010 - 2011-09-12 20:22
% List | Multi-line captions: Improved the display (the wrapping) of
long file names without spaces.
Code: Select all
v10.20.0008 - 2011-09-12 15:54
+ Configuration | Thumbnails: Added configurable multi-line
captions. Under "Number of caption lines" you can customize the
number of caption lines shown. This setting affects Thumbnails and
Large Icons views.
Notes:
- Captions without spaces don't wrap around the lines currently.
I'm still tring to understand what's causing this.
- The Spot function does not work very well together with multi-
line captions. I don't think this can be improved easily.
+ Toolbar: Added button "Enable Background Processing". IMO this
button is more useful than the "Queue File Operations" button, the
latter being more of a set-and-forget setting.
! Custom Copy: Drag and drop to another tab while foregrounding the
target tab by hovering it could lead to undesired results since
the last BETA version (v10.20.0005). Fixed.
! Custom Move: Did not suppress the progress dialog on intra-volume
moves triggered by paste from clipboard.
! List Management: The Browse button did not work as expected on
items with a caption. Fixed.
! Catalog | Insert as new category here | Favorite Folders: Did
break at the first "-" item (=horizontal menu line). Fixed.
Code: Select all
v10.20.0005 - 2011-09-07 16:23
+++ Configuration | File Operations: Added option "For all move
operations". Tick it (and also "Use Custom Copy") to use Custom
Copy for move operations instead of the standard Windows Shell
move. This means you now have Custom Move, a fully configurable
move operation with all goodies that Custom Copy has to offer.
Intra-Volume Moves vs Cross-Volume Moves
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Custom Move comprises intra-volume and cross-volume moves. Since
intra-volume moves are just changes in the volume's Master File
Table (MFT) and do not involve any copying of bytes, they are very
fast and notably will ignore some of the configuration options,
namely:
- Verification (not applicable/necessary: no bytes are copied)
- Safe overwrite (not applicable/necessary: no bytes are copied)
- Remove read-only attribute (unlikely to be useful with moves)
- Preserve all item dates (not necessary: they are preserved anyway)
Note, however, that both intra-volume and cross-volume custom moves
optionally provide automatic rename-on-collision, which is a
wonderful thing for everybody who up to now has wasted his life
with the Shell's move implementation.
On cross-volume moves, each file is first copied and then (after
optional verification of the copy's correctness) the source file
is deleted. When all files are moved, the source folders are
deleted (unless they are not completely empty for whatever
reason).
* Configuration | File Operations: Renamed "Use Custom Copy for all
copy operations" to "Use Custom Copy", and added a new checkbox
"For all copy operations". This reorganization was necessary to
accomplish for the new sister option "For all move operations".
+ Configuration | File Operations: Added option "No progress dialog
on intra-volume moves". These moves are extremely fast since no
bytes are copied, so a progress is not really necessary. Instead
you get a summary feedback in the statusbar (at least on
foreground jobs; on background jobs another statusbar message will
overwrite it -- but usually you will exclude intra-volume moves
from background processing anyway because they are so fast).
Note that this setting overwrites the setting of "Show progress
dialog" in the general Custom Copy configuration. (However, if
"Show progress dialog" is off, then unticking "No progress dialog
on intra-volume moves" will not make it show, of course.)
* XYcopy 2.00.0051: Internal changes and fixes.
+ Scripting got a new function.
Name: AttrStamp
Action: Sets the attributes for files or folders.
Syntax: attrstamp([attr], [mode=1], [itemlist])
attr: a = FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ARCHIVE (32)
h = FILE_ATTRIBUTE_HIDDEN (2)
r = FILE_ATTRIBUTE_READONLY (1)
s = FILE_ATTRIBUTE_SYSTEM (4)
They can be combined in any order, e.g. "rah".
mode: 0=get, 1=set [Default], 2=replace, 3=toggle, 4=remove
itemlist: |-separated list of items (full path) to attrstamp;
if empty then current list selections are attrstamped.
return: Old attributes of the last processed item.
Examples:
attrstamp("r"); //set readonly to selected items
attrstamp("rh"); //set readonly and hidden to selected items
attrstamp("r", 2); //set readonly to selected items (any
other existing attributes are removed)
attrstamp("r", 3); //toggle readonly in selected items
attrstamp("r", 4); //remove readonly from selected items
attrstamp("r", , "E:\Test\x"); //set readonly to "E:\Test\x"
If no attributes are passed it just returns the old attributes
of the last processed item. The return value is made from summing
up the attributes bit values. e.g.:
text attrstamp(); //e.g. 5 = 1+4 (readonly and system)

v10.20.0003 - 2011-09-05 15:34
* Toolbar | Find Files: The button now has a context menu.
! Custom Copy: Did not support Undo and Select-On-Paste when target
items were renamed on collisions. Fixed.
Code: Select all
v10.20.0002 - 2011-09-01 10:50
+ Configuration | Extended: Added option "Single click on icon opens
items in list". Tick it to open list items by a left button single
click on their icon. It will trigger the same action as if you
double-clicked the item. The action is triggered on MouseUp.
Note: In Thumbnails view the new Single Click Open works only if
Mouse Down Blow Up (On left mouse down) is OFF, else both features
would conflict.
! Properties tab: The new Compressed Size ("Compress.") display
crashed on compressed files > 2 GB. And the cluster count for
files smaller than the size of one cluster was wrongly shown as
"0" where it should be "1". Both fixed.
Code: Select all
v10.20.0001 - 2011-08-31 19:06
+ Custom Copy: Now it supports Undo.
Note: Undo/Redo here works exactly as with normal shell copy. It's
meant as a last resort safety belt and has to be used with a bit
of care: Undoing a copy generally means deleting the target(s). It
will not magically bring back any overwritten target(s). Also be
aware that on mixed results (some files were copied, others not
for whatever reasons) Undo will delete ALL targets.
Note also that Redo does not use Custom Copy and any of its
settings but is hardcoded to use a foregrounded call to the
CopyFile API for each file, and a foregrounded call to shell copy
for each folder.
* XYcopy 2.00.0049: Internal changes and fixes.
+ The actual size on disk of compressed files is now shown on the
Properties tab of the Info Panel (XP or later only!).
"Space used:" in such cases should now be read as "Space that
would be used if the file would not be compressed:" -- but that
was a bit too long for the UI.
+ SC gettoken: Now it supports negative indices to reference items
from the right end of the list.
text gettoken("one,two,three,four,five", -1, ","); //five
text gettoken("one,two,three,four,five", -4, ","); //two
* Labels: If the back color of a label is white (resp. identical to
the window background color) then the icons in the toolbar and the
dropdown menu show the text color of label instead. The shape
changes from rectangle to square to mark the difference.
! Tree: In a locked Tree the current location was un-highlighted
after toggle-expanding the current folder under certain
conditions. Fixed.

v10.20.0000 - 2011-08-29 12:00
= NEW OFFICIAL RELEASE. Main changes since last release:
+++ Droppable User Buttons. Create custom toolbar buttons within
seconds which point to a location or an executable and function as
drop targets. (Pro Edition Only)
v10.10.0108 - 2011-08-29 11:41
+ Configuration | Advanced | History per tab: Now it's the factory
default.
! Droppable User Buttons (DUB): Couldn't be unset on the fly. Fixed.
* SC folderreport: No more error message when a report correctly
returns nothing.
Code: Select all
v10.10.0107 - 2011-08-24 21:03
+ Configuration | Startup & Exit | Remember most-recently-used lists
| Apply To...: Added item "Tabs Focused Item and Scroll Position"
which lets you control whether each tab remembers the focused item
and scroll position across sessions.
Code: Select all
v10.10.0106 - 2011-08-24 14:20
* List Column Widths: Changed the logic like this:
- BEFORE: All column widths were limited to a max of 1024 pixels.
You could not make them any wider by any means.
- NOW: On manual setting the column widths have no max limit; auto-
sizing columns is limited to 600 pixels.
+ Tweak: Customize the max width for autosized columns in pixels.
AutosizeColumnsMaxWidth=666
The factory default (when you don't use the tweak) is 600.

contained wildcards in the source. Fixed.

v10.10.0104 - 2011-08-23 22:03
! Custom Copy Blacklist: Well, the function was logically reversed.
Shame on me. Fixed.
