! Fixed some remaining issues with OS color schemes.
! Rename edit boxes in Catalog and List Management made beep/ding
sound on ESC key. Fixed.
+ Added (optional) path name completion to Find Files Location.
Naturally, in this case only folders are suggested (not files or
URLs as in Address Bar).
Configurable in Configuration|General.
* Menu View: renamed submenu "Show Columns" to "Columns".
* Menu Edit: renamed "Select Focused File Type" to "Select by Focused
Type", and changed the functionality: now it goes by Type, not by
Extension (unless no the focused item has no Type in which case it
does go by Extension).
To select by type is better because it now also handles folders
(type "file folder" or whatever your local language gives you
here) and drive types ("Fixed drive", "CD-ROM drive" ...).
+ Menu View|Tab: added command "Filter by Focused Extension". Will
show only items with the same extension as the currently focused
item.
* Keyboard shortcut [Ctrl+Del] (Delete (Skip Locked)) now only works
if either Tree or List have the focus. Before it also caught
keyboard events meant e.g. for the Catalog, potentially leading to
confusion.
+++ Catalog: now you can copy all items contained in a Catalog
category! Simply select a category and press Ctrl+C. Or choose the
new "Copy All Items in Category" command in the category's context
menu. Note that, of course, only files and folders are copyable,
but not drives, name searches, or web-URLs.
This little feature is a revolutionary new way to quickly and
repeatedly copy distributed items onto the clipboard by a single
click. You just have to collect them one single time under a
catalog category, and they are ready for repeated joint copying.
Note: of course, if you happen to have same-named items (from
different locations, naturally) on the clipboard you'll run into
a collision-situation when pasting them.
* Catalog|Items' Context Menu: changed caption "Remove" to "Remove
from Catalog" just to make clear that not the referred item but just
the reference is deleted.
+ Catalog|Items' Context Menu: added "Remove from Catalog (no
Prompt)" [Shift+Del]. The functionality was there already, but the
menu item has been missing.
* Catalog: when adding a new item to a category while the category
itself is focused, this item is now added to the *top* (first
position) of the category's items, not to the bottom as before.
Gives better visual feedback because the top is usually visible
while the bottom often is hidden.
* Catalog: changed selection style to "heavy" (using the dark-blue
background), but kept the little colored arrow to hold the color
information of the focused/selected (folected?) item.
It's more expected like this, the folected catalog item is easier
recognizable, and the focused control is easier spotted as well.
Good reasons galore!
* Configuration|Preview: changed option "Preview static frame, skip
n seconds" to "... milliseconds". Reason: the fractional values
(e.g. 2.123 sec) that were allowed before could lead to
misinterpretations on systems with different localization (different
decimal separator, as for example "," in Germany). Now with 2123
msec, this potential issue is history.
