WHAT!? I didn't know this was possible! Nice one!

Me not knowing that is possible = casual; even the Dev not knowing that's possible = wait a minute... what magic is that?!
Really Needs to be mentioned in Help!!

Next beta.

Awesome, that works great! Useful as both a flexible spacer and for custom separators!

It took me a minute to realize the usage is slightly different between spacers and separators. For anyone else trying this...

Spacers/Labels: Uses text: and spaces to add width (or your label)...

Name: text:DIS::

Separators: Uses just the new keyword (so that your icon still shows up)...
Name: DIS::FancySeperator

Wow! Again, you found something that I didn't originally intend to work, but it's good.

I'll be honest, I think that's a bug, because this also works...

WirlyWirly:FancyPants

I assume you're using some kind of regex? If it's the same flavor as the SC functions, I know it can be quite limiting for more complex patterns... I'm really crossing my fingers that TB will put-out with a better regex engine someday

"... this also works..." works? In what sense?

@WirlyWirly
Sorry you lost me on these, can you explain further?

text:DIS::
DIS::FancySeperator

@TestMeister
Those examples I showed would go into the Name: field when editing a CTB. I was just highlighting some usage, but in practice use DIS:: in the name field for your separator CTB. That way it doesn't respond to any mouse-over actions and is just an icon.

@Don
I think I mistyped that example. Using WirlyWirly:DIS::FancyPants works the same as DIS::. Not really a problem, since the result is the same; Including DIS:: anywhere in the name field will disable the CTB.

@ WirlyWirly

I must be missing something as I still see the float
.

DIS:: is only available on the latest XY beta. You can check for and update to the latest beta with this command...

::update 1 + 16 + 32

Ah, sure. Will be fixed in next beta. It must be either text:DIS::[text] or DIS::[text].

Hm. Wouldn't it be better have the DIS:: at the beginning in all cases? --> Either DIS::text:[text] or DIS::[text].

Hm 2. Wouldn't it be better still to just add a checkbox "Enabled" to the Edit User Button dialog?
