v4.50.0052 - 28.03.06 16:42
! Close XY displaying a removable media drive and a filter set. Open
XY with no disk in the drive, and hence the "Currently not
available" message. Change to another folder in the tree (C:\ for
example) and all the files are displayed even though the tab clearly
shows a filter. Fixed.
+ Toolbar: added "Nuke" button. Deletes selected items quick and
permanent: no Confirmation, no Recycle Bin! Take care...

v4.50.0051 - 27.03.06 11:06
! Tab-wise find settings were not saved to disk anymore after a
"Save Configuration As..." operation. Reason: the buffer/flush-INI-
writing technique introduced in v4.00.0133 has never been fully
implemented for those find setting files, and after "Save
Configuration As..." the buffer was active but never flushed.
Fixed (see next point).
+ Buffer/flush-INI-writing technique (to avoid virus-scanner induced
delay when writing INI files) now also implemented for find setting
files (\FindTemplates\tab_*.dat).
This will speed up tab-changes from search results tabs in virus-
scanner environments.
* Menu Go: moved the list of history items one level down to new
submenu "History". Purpose: easier menu hovering.
Code: Select all
v4.50.0050 - 25.03.06 19:50
+ Image Preview: there are some (rare) JPEGs that are not loadable
by GDI+ (and hence cannot be shown for example by Windows Explorer's
internal preview/thumbnails). These can now be correctly previewed
and thumbed by XYplorer.
! Menu File: custom INI file was not remembered between sessions
when loaded via "Save Configuration As...". Fixed.
* Common file Open/Save dialogs: better filter management. For
example, when handling INI files, now you are presented only the
*.ini filter, and not *.txt, *.csv etc. which are useless in this
context.

v4.50.0049 - 24.03.06 14:21
! When renaming a folder in file list -- with column width auto-
adjustment active -- the tree node was updated to a zero length
name. Fixed.
% Another boost to browsing/finding performance, notable if you list
many folders.
% Slight tree browsing speed up for NT/2K/XP.
Code: Select all
v4.50.0047 - 23.03.06 17:34
% Gave another strong boost to browsing/finding performance by
employing a more sophisticated icon retrieval strategy that should
be notable especially in remote environments like folders on
(mapped) network drives.
! Little glitch during edit label rename in the file list: focus
shortly jumped to addressbar or tree or whatever was next in the
focus queue. Fixed.
Code: Select all
v4.50.0046 - 22.03.06 19:01
* Improved resize/layout strategy: now maximizing the info panel
will always leave 2 lines in detail view visible (or 1 line if
horizontal scrollbar is visible), independent of visibility of any
top bars.
! Find Files: Crash after trying to use and invalid RegExp pattern.
Fixed.
+ Toolbar: added "List Management" button, which pops up the List
Management submenu.
Code: Select all
v4.50.0045 - 21.03.06 17:15
+ Menu Tools, List Management: added Favorite Folders.
+ Menu Tools, List Management: added Favorite Files.
Code: Select all
v4.50.0042 - 20.03.06 16:03
+ List Management: added Clear List button.
+ List Management: added Sort button.
! Caught a couple of baby bugs in List Management.
Code: Select all
v4.50.0041 - 20.03.06 11:55
+++ Menu Tools: add submenu "List Management" where you can manage
lists like History, Favorites, Address Bar, Name, Location, etc.
More lists will follow, I'm just starting...
+ Added new keyboard shortcuts to my owner-drawn listboxes (see them
in Customize Toolbar, Preview Formats, Color Filter, List
Management, etc.):
Ctrl+Up: shift selected item up
Ctrl+Down: shift selected item down
Code: Select all
v4.50.0040 - 18.03.06 16:47
! Toolbar context menu "Customize Toolbar..." did not do what it
said but "Open Configuration in Editor...". Fixed.
* All controls with Auto-complete functionality: the drop-down match
list (the list of items that match what you've typed so far) now has
a distinctive forecolor so that you can easily distinguish it from
the normal drop-down list (the list that contains all stored items
in reverse chronologial order).
Code: Select all
v4.50.0039 - 17.03.06 18:25
+ Menu Tools: added command "Open Configuration in Editor...".
Opens the current INI file in whatever application is associated
with *.ini-files. Of course, any changes you do will be applied
only after a restart without saving.
+ Menu File, Save: the command caption now tells the "Save Settings
On Exit" state.

v4.50.0038 - 16.03.06 22:36
$$$ New license policy. Details see nag splash (initial nag screen):
"XYplorer is not freeware. You may evaluate XYplorer for free for a
maximum period of 21 days. If you wish to continue using it after
21 days, you have to register and purchase a license. This trial
version is fully functional, with one exception: the configuration
will be reset to fabric defaults with a chance of 1:5."
- Dropped command "Reset to Defaults..." in menu View.
Outdated feature fossile from the previous millenium.

v4.50.0030 - 14.03.06 22:45
! "Toggle Favorite file" did not work in the toolbar icon if there were
no previous favorite files to start with. Fixed.
! "Command prompt here" icon transparent. Fixed.
Code: Select all
v4.50.0029 - 14.03.06 21:56
+ Added two nice icons made by Mark James to the toolbar:
Register (some green backs) and Unlock (a key). Thanks, Mark!
Check out Mark's site: http://www.famfamfam.com/lab/icons/silk/
* NT/2K/XP only: changed the filter for listing items in the Nethood.
Thrilling question: do you still see what you'd like to see?
Reason: speed and control.
+ Now configuration files (INI files) are remembered between sessions.
+ The name of the current INI is displayed in the title bar.
+ Toolbar: added "Favorite Files" button, which popups the Favorite
Files submenu.
Code: Select all
v4.50.0025 - 11.03.06 20:09
+ Configuration General, Minimize to tray: added option to use a 4-
bit icon for the system tray. Some trays appear to support only 16
colors.
+ Drag'n'drop: before, you could trigger any number of simultaneous
file operations by keyboard shortcuts, menu commands, or toolbar
buttons, but not by drag'n'drop: the source-control of the first
drag'n'drop operation was blocked until the file operation was
finished, and only then you could start the next. Now, you can use
drag'n'drop while the previous job is still on the way.
+ Menu View: added command "Refresh Folder" (Shift+F4). Refreshes
just the current folder, and is thus a bit faster and more to the
point than Refresh Tree.
