    + Configuration, Preview: added option "Mouse Down Blow Up: Shrink 
      larger originals to fit window". Check to avoid scrolling around 
      larger images.
    * Image preview, Mouse Down Blow Up: the blown up view is now 
      centered in the main window. Before it was shown in the lower left 
      corner.
    + Have a small screen? Added more thumb sizes: 30, 40, 54 pixels!
    + Status bar: if hidden files are not shown by configuration, the 
      status bar now tells you the total number of items in the format 
      "shown files/total files". A hint at what you are missing...

    * Find Files tab, Results to tab: now XYplorer does exactly what 
      it's told.
      (1) Current tab
          ... sends the results to the current tab.
      (2) New tab
          ... always opens a fresh new tab for the results.
          (before it stayed at the current tab if it was in Find mode)
      (3) Search results
          ... sends the results to the tab that's named "Search results" 
          (this rule is hardcoded). If none of that name is existing, it 
          is automatically created.
          (before it stayed at the current tab if it was in Find mode)
    + Configuration: added a context-sensitive Help button which 
      provides tabwise help.

    * Worked hard on the help file. It's pretty up-to-date now. If you 
      still see something wrong or missing: tell me!
    * Configuration/Advanced: simplified auto-refresh configuration from 
      5 (which had been introduced for debugging only) down to 2 options:
      - Auto-refresh on file system changes: Automatic refresh (of tree 
        and list) on file system changes.
      - Include network locations: Auto-refresh network locations as 
        well, including mapped network drives. Unchecking this option will 
        speed up network access on some systems.        
    ! Paste worked via Shift+Ins (good) and via Ctrl+Shift+Ins (bad). 
      Fixed. Now only Shift+Ins does it and Ctrl+Shift+Ins currently does 
      nothing.

    + Find Files tab: Name and Location combos now have the same nice 
      auto-complete feature as the address bar.
    + Name and Location histories now hold up to 64 items.
    + Added XYplorer custom options to MyComputer's tree context menu.
    + Menu Favorites/Special System Folders:
      "My Computer", "Desktop", "My Documents" are back. Don't ask ;)

Thanks!

[admin]

BTW: What ist the best way to update my existing XYplorer? Should I uninstall and then reinstall? What will happen to my settings? Or can I just install the new (BETA) version?

v4.40.0051 - 17.01.06 10:58
    - Removed "My Computer", "Desktop", "My Documents" from menu 
      Favorites/Special Folders. Reason: superfluous, because easily 
      available in the tree all the time.
    - Removed 3 outdated bitmaps from help file making it and the whole 
      download package 100 KB smaller.
    + Newly assigned keyboard shortcuts:
        F6: Move focus among Tree, Address Bar, and List.
        Ctrl+Shift+F4: Show Tree
        Ctrl+E: Go Home (Tab Home)
        Ctrl+Shift+G: Go/Go to from Here...
    ! Tree/List splitter height was not always adjusted correctly. 
      Fixed.

Ctrl+Shift+F4: Show Tree

Done

Thank you.

Ctrl+Shift+F4: Show Tree

Done

Code: Select all

    * Newly assigned keyboard shortcut:
        Ctrl+Shift+F12: Show Address Bar (previously "Show Tree")
      Reason: showing/hiding the tree is presumably less often needed. 

As usual, I have to be different, and don't agree. I switch the tree on and off on a regular basis in order to see very long files names.
Ctrl+F4 is "Rebuild Tree" so Ctrl+Shift+F4 (which I think is not used) would be a better solution for me.

    * Newly assigned keyboard shortcut:
        Ctrl+Shift+F12: Show Address Bar (previously "Show Tree")
      Reason: showing/hiding the tree is presumably less often needed. 
    * Little orange arrow context menus on Find Files Date, Preview, and 
      File View: now they open on LeftMouseDown thus allowing for the 
      elegant mousedown-and-select-on-mouseup motion.

    + Preview Tab, tool menu for audio/video: added checkable commands 
      "Autoplay" and "Loop Audio/Video". These options are as well to be 
      found in Configuration/Preview.
    * Preview for audio/video: when "Loop Audio/Video" video is off and 
      the medium has played to the end, now you need just press <space> 
      once to restart it. Before you needed one for rewind plus one for 
      start.
    + Address bar: note that you can also paste files (with full path)
      into the bar. They will be selected in the file list when you go 
      there.
    ! Address bar: crash when using up/down arrows on an empty but 
      visible match list (happens after all items have been deleted). 
      Fixed.

   *! Address bar: improved deleting items (and removed a crash bug). 
      Now after deletion selection moves on to the next item. Makes it 
      easy to quickly delete a whole series of items.
