loads of new power features.
Version 4.2 is tributed to Douglas Adams.
+ MP3 Info Tips: added MP3 length field (playing time).

%%% Well, I finally did what many others are doing, too: take a rather
streaming approach to file listing, ie retrieve certain hard-to-get
parts of the information (namely the icons) only when needed. This
leads to dramatic speed improvements at gathering files (browsing
and finding):
- 5 to 10 times faster on first file listing (hard disk access).
- Double speed on non-first file listings (OS cache access).
Hardly notable price: first-time scrolling long lists might feel a
bit sticky now, since the icons are collected on the fly.

! Browsing tabs had a little refresh problem for 3 hours. Fixed.

+ Zip-extraction per drag'n'drop now also works on tab headers.
! Fixed some minor glitches concerning tab hover selection.

v4.00.0192 - 28.09.05 11:10
+ Drag'n'drop on tab headers now can select a tab: if you hover your
dragging mouse over a tab header for a second the tab will gain
focus. Let's call it "Delayed Dual-Pane" (infact Multi-Pane): you
can see where you drop, and you can drop your packet into any of
the tab's listed subfolders in one smooth move without clicking.
+ Configuration, General: added checkbox "Remember find mode between
sessions". Was hard-coded to True before, which means: when you
close the app in find mode it will start up in find mode the next
time and immediately re-run the last search.
! When dragging from another app onto TrackerV3 the mouse cursor was
not responsive to holding Shift or Ctrl keys, and it was generally
showing the wrong symbol (namely the shortcut symbol). Fixed.

v4.00.0191 - 27.09.05 11:08
! Zip-extraction per drag'n'drop now works.
! Incorrect auto-adjustment of column widths if using a proportional
font and depending on sort order. This bug slipped in with natural
numeric sort order. Fixed.

v4.00.0190 - 26.09.05 20:54
* No more file info tips are shown for shared files. I found that
those tips are a source of slowness.
+ We finally have zip-extraction per drag'n'drop!

v4.00.0189 - 26.09.05 13:15
!!! The Favorites under Move To, Copy To, and Backup To in the context
menu would all invariably trigger a Move operation (not a Copy or
Backup). Fixed.
! Whenever you entered a non-existing shared drive into the Goto
box, all existing tree nodes of that server would be duplicated.
Fixed.
! Clicking on the tree while it was being rebuilt could generate a
crash. Fixed.
* The file operation progress window is now shown modeless. Which
effectively means that you can go on working while files are being
moved or copied in the background.

v4.00.0186 - 25.09.05 21:29
+ Added Favorites to Move To, Copy To, and Backup To menus. Now you
can easily move, copy, and backup to your Favorites.

v4.00.0180 - 20.09.05 20:22
+ Menu View, Show Columns: added command "Set Line Number Column
Width..." (measured in digits). Before, you could change this value
only by editing the INI file. Now you can set this value from the
GUI, choose between 3 and 8 digits, and thus display line
numbers up to 99,999,999. Well, I did not actually *test* this ;)

v4.00.0178 - 19.09.05 10:30
! Fixed scrolling problems with file listings larger than 32767 items.
! Some tree context menu commands were missing with shared folders. Fixed.
This is great! Gotta admit it does work way faster now!!admin wrote: % Faster access to network drives.
I used to have to wait a few seconds before I actually got the file list, now it's basiclly as fast on my local drives! Well done
