It means that if I wonder away from the established tabs in Tabset 01 this will bring me back to the established tabs: correct?

This seems to happen with my experimenting.

So I can avoid the Open As now?

However Open As... will still exist, right?

Here is a Steel's wish, which I do not think has been implemented (I was hoping for that too, although there is a script solution):

It would also be nice to have a dropdown menu with existing Tabsets names in the Save As window cause I have created many Tabsets but don't remember by heart all their names.

(Also in Save Copy As, please.)

Here is my wish, which I also do not think has been implemented:

Tabset dialogs to remember their position and size.

I would say that both of these wishes are a "very nice to have".

Well, for now I'm done with Tabsets. I keep these wishes in the back of my mind.

"Save Copy As... : savecopyas"
  setting "BackgroundFileOps", 0;
  global $TabsetBase;
  perm $TabsetBase;
  $TabsetList=listfolder("$TabsetBase", "*", 4, "|");
  $TabsetList="Save Copy As New Tabset...;new:|-|" . $TabsetList;
  $SaveAsName=popupmenu("$TabsetList");
  if ($SaveAsName=="new:") {
   tabset("savecopyas");
  } 
  elseif ($SaveAsName=="") {
  status "Save copy as cancelled.", "FF0000";
  }
  else {
   delete 0, 0, "$TabsetBase" . "\" . "$SaveAsName";
   tabset("savecopyas", "$SaveAsName");
  };

Yes, it is already there in my previously published scripts set in this thread.

Borut wrote:BUT, this was all for the versions before v10.70.0205! Although it still works for the later versions, one is loosing some good features of the v10.70.0205-concept (for instance the ability to display the name of the currently loaded tabset in the XYplorer's window title).

Borut wrote:So, I plan to adapt these things to the new situation. Also, I shall try to support easily changeable tabset base folders and at the same time not loosing the portability features (which is now the case in this current set of scripts). Although some of these things are already working at my place it will take some time for it to ripe and be substantially tested under the real world conditions. If I am happy with the result, I'll probably publish something in the "Script Exchange" area (where the script gurus will no doubt be able to make it still better).

Tabset '1' is already open in the active pane.
Would you like to make and load a clone?

Tabset '1' is already open in the active pane.
Would you like to revert to saved?

Is that still needed?

It is working here: a pop up menu should appear. The prerequisite is that you previously use the script "Set Tabsets Folder" and set the tabsets folder to where your tabsets are (default is <xydata>\Panes).

Look in Configuration|Templates|Titlebar. There you can use (among other things) <tabset1> and <tabset2>.
