v5.20.0022 - 08.10.06 11:40
+++ Added Drop-Text-To-File, yet another revolutionary XYplorer-only
feature. Now you can drag & drop a text chunk onto Tree and List,
where it will be automatically converted into a *.txt-file called
something like "DroppedText-20061007.txt". The "-20061007" part is
the date now (format defined in INI at key PostfixDate). After
creation of the file, rename-mode is invoked. Try it, for example,
with your web browser. Select a piece of text on a web page and
drag it onto XYplorer...
- Removed feature (v5.00.0020 - 10.06.06 10:06): "Now you can create
internet shortcuts by dropping URLs onto the file list."
Reason: potential conflicts/confusion with the above Drop-Text-To-
File feature.
* Dropping items from Outlook/Outlook Express: If dropping exactly
one item it will be suffixed with an auto-incremented number if a
file of the same name already exists in the target destination. So,
contrary to Explorer and to dropping more than one item at once, you
will not get the "overwrite-or-cancel" dialog.
>>> Tips: since the recent enhancements in droppability you can do
some pretty amazing things, for example:
- You can drag-drop selected text bits from XYplorer's own Web and
Office preview!
- You can drag-drop selected text bits from PDF documents and they
will be saved as "Untitled[-##].rtf"!
- You can even drag-drop selected image bits (details of embedded
images) from PDF documents and they will be saved as a BMP named
to the full path/file of the source file!
- You always could drag-drop images directly from web pages (I
just remind you here).
+ Preview tab: added the following file type to "Web & Office
preview" (i.e. files viewed through IE):
*.zip
Believe or not, yes, XYplorer now can preview zip archives by
abusing IE's power to do so. It's not extremely comfortable: you
can't drag-extract from there, settings are not remembered... but
hey, at least you can now see the contents of an archive.
+ Win95 compatibility: I fixed some minor issues with Win95 and it
seems to work quite well now in the previous millenium's
environment. I won't officially recommend or promote it though,
since I did not thoroughly test everything under Win95. At least
you know: if you happen to get thrown back that far by some time
machine, XYplorer is with you even then.
% Super-fast thumbnail creation again 10-20% faster depending on
images sizes (smaller images are now faster due to reduced
overhead).
