v25.90.0150 - 2024-05-16 20:45
    + SC ControlPosition enhanced: The Preview Pane can now be referenced by "PP".
        echo ControlPosition("PP");  //Preview Pane
    * Hover Box | Rounded Corners: Now ensures a minimum frame width when rounded corners 
      are enabled, otherwise it looks unbearably bad.
    % Tree | Rapid Access: Existing RAFs are no longer completely collapsed when removing 
      some of them, but remain untouched.
    % Tree | Rapid Access: Existing RAFs are no longer completely collapsed when renaming 
      one of them in Tree or List, but remain untouched.
    ! Toolbar | Bookmark Buttons: A bookmark to Rapid Access started without icon. Fixed.

v25.90.0149 - 2024-05-16 13:14
    + Drag Status Box Colors (Tweak): The colors for dragging over Bookmarks and Rapid 
      Access have been appended to the default values of the tweak DragStatusClasses, so 
      you can now control them.
      This is now the factory default (slightly changed the Rapid Access color):
        DragStatusClasses=5495DC|FEA311|81409C|A0A0A0|C7E6B7|62A0B1|4AB3A3
      Should work nicely for upgraders; nothing to do.
    + Catalog: Now you can add folders to RAF by dropping them onto a catalog item 
      pointing to "Rapid Access" (or locale-independent %rapidaccess%).
    + Catalog | Item Properties | Edit: Now the state of "Word wrap" is remembered across 
      calls and sessions.
    % Tree | Rapid Access: Now existing RAFs are not completely collapsed when adding a 
      new one, but remain untouched.
    ! Rapid Access: Fixed a couple of glitches concerning tree refresh and location.
    ! Opening Items With Overlong Filenames (> 259 Characters): Did not work yet for 
      multiple items. Fixed.
    ! Overlong Filenames: Items with overlong names did not always get the correct generic 
      icon in various parts of the interface. Fixed.

v25.90.0148 - 2024-05-15 23:00
    * Opening Items With Overlong Filenames (> 259 Characters): They are now converted to 
      DOS 8.3 short filenames before being passed to the opening application, because many 
      applications still cannot handle overlong filenames.
      Note that DOS 8.3 short filenames must be enabled on the volume for this to work.
    ! File | To Clipboard | Item Short Path/Name(s): Has stopped working properly some 
      weeks ago. Fixed.

v25.90.0146 - 2024-05-15 15:10
    + Scripting got a new function.
      Name: RAF
      Action: Sets, adds, or removes Rapid Access Folders.

          r: Remove from current RAF.
             First it compares the passed items with the display names (left of ">" in the 
             definition). If there is no match, it compares them with the target paths 
             (right of ">" in the definition).
          s: Set as new RAF (dump previous).
        separator: List separator. Defaults to CRLF.
        return: The current RAF, separated by separator.
      Examples:
        raf("C:\Windows"); //add Windows folder
        raf("C:\Windows|Downloads", a, "|"); //add Windows and Downloads folder
        raf("<xydata>"); //add XYplorer data folder (automatic display name)
        raf("XY Config><xydata>"); //add XYplorer data folder (explicit display name)
        text raf(<clp>, s); //set whatever is in the clipboard, return current RAF
        raf("Windows", r); //remove Windows folder (by display name)
        raf("C:\Windows", r); //remove Windows folder (by target path)
        text raf(); //just return current RAF
    ! Tree | Rapid Access: MUSD on VFO RAF got the bottom item wrong. Fixed.
    ! Hover Box: Various Hover Boxes over special items in RAF, MUSD on RAF, and 
      Breadcrumb Dropdowns, did not work alright. Fixed.

        path: [optional] The path to show.
              If missing the current path is shown (moved into view).

v25.90.0137 - 2024-05-08 15:48
    + Batch Rename | <name>: Now you can extract parts left or right of a specified 
      separator.
      Syntax: <name [length=0] [start=1] [part=b]>
        start:  Start position of returned string.
                1 = 1st position; negative numbers for the position from the right end.
                Can be *xxx or xxx* for the part left or right of xxx.
     For example, this will move files to a subfolder named by the part of the filename to 
     the left of the first "-":
        <name 0 *->\*
    + Rapid Access: The tricky ambiguities between RAF folders and Shell Special Folders 
      have been resolved without adding numbers to the RAF. So now you can add 
      "Documents", "Downloads", etc. to the RAF and Tree Path Tracing will not get confused.
    ! Rapid Access: Fixed many other glitches.
    ! Hi-Res: Some internal icons (RAF, PF, VFO) were drawn too small at 125% and 150%. Fixed.
    ! MLS: Term "Rapid Access" was not translated on language switch. Fixed.
    ! MLS: For a while, most toolbar button captions and tooltips were not translated 
      immediately when switching languages, but only after a restart. Fixed.

    + Batch Rename: The interesting new variable <name> can be used for otherwise 
      difficult self-referencing batch renaming tasks.
      Syntax: <name [length=0] [start=1] [part=b]>
        length: Number of characters; 0 = all; negative numbers for portions from the right end.
        start:  Start position of returned string; 1 = 1st position; negative numbers for 
                the position from the right end.
        part:   Part to return; a = all, b [default] = base, e = ext, n = name (base.ext), p = path.
      For example, if you have a bunch of files named "yyyy-mm-dd - xxx.xxx" this pattern 
      will move them into new folders named by the first four characters of the file's base name 
      (yyyy):
        <name 4>\*
      This would use the last four characters of each file's base name: 
        <name -4>\*
      This would characters 2 and 3:
        <name 2 2>\*
      This would use the last two characters of each file name including the extension:
        <name 0 -2 n>\*
      Note that "Configuration | General | Sort and Rename | Rename | Allow move on 
      rename" has to be enabled for the above examples to work.      
      You can also move parts of the filename, e.g. move the first four characters to the end:
        <name 0 5><name 4>
    * Rapid Access: Icon greener.

    + Toolbar: Added button "Rapid Access". Clicking it brings you to "Rapid Access", the 
      right-click menu has some useful stuff.
    + Address Bar: The icon context menu now has the commands "Go to Real Path" or "Go to 
      Special Path", if applicable.
    + Breadcrumb Bars: The component context menu now has the commands "Go to Real Path" 
      or "Go to Special Path", if applicable.
    * Tree | Rapid Access: Now the Rapid Access Folders have precedence over the shell 
      special folders, meaning that when you go from a real path to a corresponding special 
      path, the tree will select the Rapid Access Folder.
      For example, this is you RAF definition:
        Hollywood>C:\Users\%username%\Downloads\Hollywood
      That path is now mapped to "Hollywood", but it is also mapped to the shell special 
      folder "Downloads\Hollywood". Now "Go to Special Path" will bring you to "Hollywood" 
      in the Rapid Access section, not to "Downloads\Hollywood".
