Download the latest XYplorer BETA version (v5.00.0064, 23-jul-2006).

Code: Select all

v5.00.0064 - 23.07.06 19:02
    + Info Panel/Find Files/Name & Location: added a Browse button to 
      the Location field.
    + Info Panel/Find Files/Excluded Folders: added a Browse button here 
      as well.
    - Info Panel/Find Files/Name & Location: removed the "Boolean Logic" 
      checkbox because it was superfluous and confusing. To mark a search 
      term as Boolean expression, i.e. as containing Boolean operators 
      like "not", "and", "or", "&", "|", simply prefix it with a colon 
      (":").
    * Menu Window/Show Tree: removed shortcut Ctrl+Shift+F4.
    * Menu View/Refresh Folder:
      - Added shortcut Ctrl+Shift+F4.
      - Renamed it to "Refresh Current Folder".
    ! Info Panel/Find Files/Date: crash when using "1d20h" or other 
      strings containing "d" followed by a larger number in the and/add 
      field. It's not a legal entry but I fixed it anyway.

Code: Select all

v5.00.0063 - 23.07.06 12:58
    + Menu View/Tab/Set Visual Filter...: if currently no filter is 
      active the globally last used filter is now preselected in the 
      dialog. (Per-tab last filters will be treated next time...)
    + Configuration/Previewed Formats: now you can choose which font 
      formats you (don't) want to preview.
    + Here's a new INI file trick (hidden feature; no config interface):
        [Settings]
        PopupFullFavMenu=1
      If PopupFullFavMenu=1 then the full Favorites menu is popped up on 
      a right-click in the tree's white space. Else (default) you only 
      get the "Favorite Folders" submenu.
      This feature is tributed to jacky ;)
    * Menu Favorites/Special System Folders: "Desktop" and "My 
      Documents" now point to the *real* paths, for example:
        C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Desktop
      and not to the Special Tree nodes under MyComputer like:
        Desktop

Code: Select all

v5.00.0062 - 22.07.06 12:11
    + Menu View/Views: added command "Toggle Details/Thumbnails 1". 
      Function identical to the toolbar button.
    ! Configuration/Advanced: if you checked both "Use generic icons for 
      faster browsing" and "But only in network locations" then, after 
      switching back from a network to a local location, the icons kept 
      being generic. Fixed.
    + Configuration/Advanced: added option to "Suspend refresh during 
      file operations". The corresponding INI key (NoWatchDuringFileOp) 
      has been already existing since v4.20.0046 as a hidden feature, 
      i.e. without interface.
      If you activate this option then auto-refresh is suspended while 
      file operations are going on. Reason: consecutive refresh 
      activities do slow down the file operation itself. This is notable 
      especially when moving many items and many bytes.

Code: Select all

v5.00.0057 - 21.07.06 10:52
    + Menu Edit/Paste Special: added "Edit Clipboard...". Allows you to 
      view what's currently sitting in the clipboard and to manually edit 
      it. Cool, if you ask me.
      The identical interface can be invoked via menu Tools/List 
      Management/Files on Clipboard...
      Note: if the clipboard is empty and you manually add items, a 
      later Paste defaults to Copy.
    * Menu View/List Style: renamed "Column Width Auto-Adjustment" to 
      "Autosize Columns".
    * Menu Edit/Paste Special: undid this rename from v5.00.0055
        "Paste (Move)" to "Paste As Cut"
        "Paste (Copy)" to "Paste As Copy"
    + Catalog, context menu: "Add New Category Here..." now immediately 
      creates a "New Category" item and pops up the properties dialog. 
      "New Category" is auto-removed if Properties dialog is immediately 
      canceled.

Code: Select all

v5.00.0055 - 20.07.06 10:24
    * Menu Edit: reorganized some items into new submenu "Paste Special".
  +++ Menu Edit/Paste Special: added "Paste Here To New Subfolder...". 
      Lets you paste any files currently found in the clipboard to a newly 
      created subfolder of the current folder (the one that's displayed in 
      the main title bar).
      Keyboard shortcut: Ctrl+Shift+V.
      Very nice feature. In fact, I'd say: Once again pioneering file 
      manager XYplorer delivers an innovative friction-lessening high-
      efficiency solution that skyrockets the art of file management into 
      yet another orbit of usability!
    * Menu Edit/Paste Special: renamed
        "Paste (Move)" to "Paste As Cut"
        "Paste (Copy)" to "Paste As Copy"
      By these commands you can Cut & Paste or Copy & Paste clipboard 
      contents independent of the way (Cut or Copy) those contents have 
      been sent to the clipboard in the first place.            
    * Renamed menu View/Show Columns/Adjust All Column Widths
      to "Autosize Columns". It's shorter ;)
    ! Catalog: pasting from Clipboard into Catalog using Ctrl+V did 
      actually paste into the current tree location. Fixed: now it pastes 
      into the selected catalog item's location (if it is a valid target).
    + Now Ctrl+Shift+V ("Paste Here To New Subfolder...") works in the 
      Catalog, too, if the selected item is a valid target.
    + Catalog: to select an item without further action use Alt+Click.

Code: Select all

v5.00.0054 - 19.07.06 09:43
    + Toolbar: added button "New Folder" (Ctrl+N). A little reminder:
      - The new folder's default name is defined and editable in this
        INI key:
          [NewTemplates] 
          Folder0=\N\e\w \F\o\l\d\e\r
      - The new folder's default name's numerical suffix is defined and 
        editable in this INI key:
          [General] 
          PostfixNum=-00 
    ! Pressing Ctrl+N (create new folder) in MyComputer (drives listing) 
      would crash XY. Fixed.
    * Catalog context menu: changed two captions:
      - Old: Add Current Folder Here
        New: Add Selected Tree Item Here
      - Old: Add Current List Item Here
        New: Add Selected List Item(s) Here
      And in the latter case, the functionality obviously changed too: 
      now you can add multiple items at once (you could do this before 
      already by drag'n'drop). 
    ! Win2K, since 5 days ago: Updating network resources would raise 
      "Run-time error '453' can't find dll entry point IsNetDrive in 
      shell32". Reason: Contrary to the official docs IsNetDrive is 
      *not* available in Win2K. Fixed: Now only XP uses IsNetDrive.

v5.00.0052 - 18.07.06 17:45
    ! Menu Help/User Forum (Online)...: outdated link. Fixed.
    ! List view: crash if deleting all items in a folder when vertical 
      scrollbar is visible and top index is > 1, i.e. if the list is 
      scrolled down at least one line. Fixed.
    ! Catalog: after OK-ing the Item Properties dialog once the OK flag 
      was not properly reset leading to surprising behavior after 
      Canceling any subsequent Item Properties dialog via the red-cross 
      title bar button. Fixed.

    ! Catalog: You could not move an item to the last category if it was 
      an empty one. Fixed.
    ! Start up: Issues with certain combinations of configuration values 
      concerning control and window dimensions. Fixed.
    ! List view: When changing the main content font (menu 
      View/Font/Tree...) in thumbnails view mode all the captions would 
      disappear. Fixed.

    + Now you can restore the connection of any mapped network drives 
      that are currently unconnected (may happen after booting up) by 
      simply refreshing the tree (F4). Works for NT/2K/XP only.
    * Statusbar: on searching, the currently searched folder now is 
      drawn path-elliptic (with "..." dots somewhere in the middle), so 
      that you can actually read the scanned subfolder.

Hey, I could not resist to add this extremely valuable feature before summer.

Download the latest XYplorer BETA version (v5.00.0045, 11-jul-2006).

Code: Select all

v5.00.0046 - 11.07.06 11:31
  +++ Menu View/Tab: added checkable item "Lock Home Zone". First you 
      have to define a home, then you may lock your tab to the Home Zone, 
      which includes the home path and all its subfolders (in other 
      words, the home branch). You can freely move inside the home zone 
      and stay inside the tab, but if you browse to a destination 
      outside the home zone, the tab stays where it is and a new tab 
      will be automatically opened.
      Home-zoned tabs are recognizable by a dotted underline.
      
      And now's summer-time, bye! :)

    + Menu Edit: added command "Search Templates... (Ctrl+F9)", hereby 
      also available in the list's white space context menu.
      The same command is repeated in menu Tools.
    + Configuration/Advanced: added option to "Activate left tab on 
      closing current". If unchecked then the tab to the right of the 
      current tab is activated (selected) when the current is closed.
    * List view: if you have grid lines turned on the grid now is drawn 
      only in lines containing data.
    ! Catalog: MiddleClick to "Open in New Tab" now actually works.

v5.00.0043 - 09.07.06 12:28
    ! Catalog: dbl-clicking an item (currently a non-functional 
      activity, apart from expanding/collapsing categories, which 
      actually works now) would remove any selection, and a subsequent 
      <enter> would crash the app. Fixed.
    + Catalog: added MiddleClick to "Open in New Tab"; equivalent to 
      Shift+LeftClick.
    + Now checkboxes in checkable lists finally *look* disabled if the 
      lists *are* disabled. Try for example Configuration/Colors/Apply 
      checked color filters.

Download the latest XYplorer BETA version (v5.00.0040, 08-jul-2006).

Code: Select all

v5.00.0040 - 08.07.06 12:52
  +++ Configuration/Colors/Color Filters: added color coding by file 
      attributes, i.e. by attribute- controlled color filters. You add an 
      attribute pattern by simply adding the name of the attribute, preceded 
      by a forward slash, to the color filters list (tip: stating the first 
      letter is enough; case is ignored). 
      These are the available attributes:
        /readonly   (or /r) -> matches all items with READONLY set
        /hidden     (or /h) -> matches all items with HIDDEN set
        /system     (or /s) -> matches all items with SYSTEM set
        /directory  (or /d) -> matches all items with DIRECTORY set
        /archive    (or /a) -> matches all items with ARCHIVE set
        /normal     (or /n) -> matches all items with NORMAL set
        /temporary  (or /t) -> matches all items with TEMPORARY set
        /compressed (or /c) -> matches all items with COMPRESSED set
      Attribute patterns can be freely OR-combined with each other and 
      with name patterns into one filter definition, e.g.:
        /c;/r       -> matches all items that are compressed or readonly 
        /d;*.txt    -> matches all directories and TXT files
      Note that all filter-controlled color-coding is confined to the 
      list view and does not show in the tree view.
    + Configuration/Colors/Color Filters: now the filters can be 
      in/excluded individually.
