(Additionally, I would be really excited to see how a row could look like, for example, framed in full length.)
I thought about it, but thought it was a bit overkill. Maybe later.

Hi Don, I noticed when changing the InterfaceColors that the tweak info line in the XYplorer.ini file states

Code: Select all

; Tweak: RRGGBB[|RRGGBB] (Back|Text)
InterfaceColors=
Should be Text|Back as in the release notes.
Why doesn't that InterfafeColors= value change in the ini file? Still a work in progress? By the way, I do like changing the foreground text color and leaving the background the same as the normal background, whatever it is. :tup: :)

These tweak notes are outdated and can be removed.

There are different INI keys for SC interfacecolors.

OK Don, I see that now. FolderRowColors= It looks like Customize List > Show Folder Row Colors works specifically for the current folder(s) (i.e., you can turn the feature on for a particular folder(s) and off for a different folder). :tup:

No, it's a list style and follows the settings for those. See Configuration | Colors and Styles | Styles | Apply list styles globally and Configuration | Colors and Styles | Styles | Remember list settings per tab. Of course, you can bind it to particular folders via FVS.
