Change Log for the latest
XYplorer BETA version (64-bit):
Code: Select all
v28.30.0701 - 2026-06-08 17:26
* Startup: Now, the main menu bar is hidden by default. This is because menus are seen
as old-fashioned, or even completely outdated, by younger users. But don't worry,
it's easy to get it back (see the next point).
* Toolbar | Show Menu Bar: This button now toggles the "modern menu bar" by default,
i.e. the one that is part of the toolbar and that obeys to Dark Mode.
Notes:
- The button doesn't have a pressed state anymore. It's not necessary here and it
doesn't look as cool.
- It's easy to go back to the old way of doing things (see the next point).
+ Toolbar | Show Menu Bar: Now, when you hold down CTRL, the button has a special
right-click menu where you can change the button's functionality:
- Use Classic Menu Bar: Check it to have the button toggle the classic
menu bar (the one that doesn't obey to Dark Mode).
There are also toggle commands for the classic and the modern menu bar:
- Toggle Modern Menu Bar
- Toggle Classic Menu Bar
* Miscellaneous | General Functions | Toggle Main Menu: Also this function (and its
keyboard shortcut) is now controlled by the setting of "Use Classic Menu Bar".
! Configuration | General | Menus, Mouse, Usability | Mouse | Point to select: In
Details view, the selection happened even when pointing beyond the file name or
icon. Probably since 20260419. Fixed.
