Download the latest XYplorer BETA version (v4.60.0014, 05-may-2006).

Code: Select all

v4.60.0014 - 05.05.06 20:45
    + Added wheel support for all the lists in the Configuration window.
    + Now you can "scroll" through all tabs (Info Panel etc) using the 
      mouse wheel. However, it's not always a satisfying experience 
      because certain controls grab the wheel message (dropdowns, 
      multiline editboxes...). Anyway, your choice.

Code: Select all

v4.60.0017 - 06.05.06 10:46
    + Menu View/Style Tree: added Narrow Tree. Reduces the tree level indent 
      from 19 to 10 pixels. Saves a lot of horizontal space if you work in 
      deeply nested folders.
      This is step 4 towards the next big feature: the catalog!

    + Added zoom by Ctrl+MouseWheel: now you can easily set the tree,

      anywhere on the screen.

Download the latest XYplorer BETA version (v4.60.0021, 07-may-2006).

Code: Select all

v4.60.0021 - 07.05.06 21:23
    + Added the catalog (still empty) to the overall layout. You can 
      show it, hide it, size it.
    * Reorganized the View menu.
    ! Tree and List: improved visibility ensurance. Before, when the 
      viewport height was smaller than one row, a selected item jumped 
      upwards out of the viewport. Does not happen anymore.
    * Addendum to Zoom by Ctrl+MouseWheel: it's more fun when you select 
      a scalable font (TrueType, OpenType, Type1) first.
v4.60.0020 - 07.05.06 09:39
    ! Wheel scrolling: the lines-to-scroll user setting of "one page per 
      notch" was not consistently supported. Fixed.

Download the latest XYplorer BETA version (v4.60.0022, 08-may-2006).

Code: Select all

v4.60.0022 - 08.05.06 16:16
    + Added a little life to the catalog: you cannot edit anything yet but 
      you can jump to your favorites (auto-filled-in at startup) from 
      here. The egg is laid...
    ! Toolbar: "Views" button popped up "Tabs". Fixed.
    * Zoom by Ctrl+MouseWheel: better handling of non-scalable fonts.
    * Zoom by Ctrl+MouseWheel: now finer theoretical resolution of 0.25 
      points. The actual resolution depends on the font (e.g. Tahoma 
      increases by 0.75 points: 8.25, 9.00, 9.75, 10.50 ...).

Download the latest XYplorer BETA version (v4.60.0024, 11-may-2006).

Code: Select all

v4.60.0024 - 11.05.06 13:54
    * New Splitter Cursors.
    ! Fixed a tiny display glitch with splitter movements.
    + Shift tabs by Shift+MouseWheel over tabs.
    + The Catalog now
      - shares the font of Tree and List
      - now knows the wheel
      - stores its settings in a bibary file called catalog.dat in app 
        path
      DblClick the categories (bold at the moment) to toggle-expand.
      You cannot edit anything yet (it's auto-filled-in at startup).      
      Wait with your wishes until I call for them. This is work in 
      progress and I've hardly started...

Code: Select all

v4.60.0025 - 11.05.06 22:33
    ! Shift tabs by Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right did not correctly work when 
      tree had focus. Fixed. Now it works when tree or list have focus.
    + Catalog: you can now rename items via F2 (the destination remains 
      unchanged). If anything goes wrong simply delete catalog.dat and try 
      again... ;)
      You can also walk the catalog by up/down arrows and select a 
      destination by <enter>.

Download the latest XYplorer BETA version (v4.60.0026, 12-may-2006).

Code: Select all

v4.60.0026 - 12.05.06 15:53
    + Catalog: now you can delete items and categories via DEL key.
    + Catalog: now you can add categories via right-click ctx menu.
    * Catalog: during the development phase it will not use catalog.dat 
      at start-up but always auto-fill in the current favs. This is less 
      risky since the data structure of catalog.dat is still in constant 
      change.
    ! Shift tabs by Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right did work logical but 
      insterestingly not as expected when the shifted tab did cycle around 
      the left/right edges. Fixed: now it is less logical but feels better.
    * Now you can shift tabs by Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right also if focus is 
      on Catalog or on Address Bar.

    + Enough old-school drag-drop-and-see-what-happened-splitting! I 
      couldn't stand it no more and built in live splitting within 90 
      minutes, yeah!
    + I was crazy enough to waste another 60 minutes of my life to add 
      shifting tabs by drag'n'drop! No time to design a proper insert-
      position icon yet -- you'll see what you get instead... :)

v4.60.0028 - 13.05.06 10:29
    * Shifting tabs by drag'n'drop: new insertion point icon. Actually I 
      had designed a much better one but could not manage to display an 
      irregular form on top of everything. Shit.
      Also fixed a number of bugs here.

Download the latest XYplorer BETA version (v4.60.0030, 14-may-2006).

Code: Select all

v4.60.0030 - 14.05.06 20:18
    + Menu View/Date Column Format: now some of the time formats (namely 
      menu-position 3, 4, and 5) are user-configurable.
      If you are advanced enough to know how to edit an INI file, open 
      XYplorer.ini, and go to this section:
        [ListTimeFormats]
        Version=1
        3=hh:nn am/pm
        4=hh:nn AM/PM
        5=hh:nn:ss
      For example, to suppress leading zeros use single letters:
        3=h:n am/pm
      You can also change ":" into another separator.
    + Configuration/Advanced: add "App load time" information. This is 
      the time XY's own code takes from the first executed line until the 
      full completion of the load process (the ready state). It does not 
      include the loading of the VB run time library which has to happen 
      before.
    + Configuration/Advanced: added option "Custom items in shell 
      context menu". Uncheck it to turn off XYplorer's custom context menu 
      items and just use the normal shell.
      *** ATTENTION: if an INI file is existing the new checkbox is 
      initialized to 'unchecked', so upgrading users have to check the 
      box to see the custom items as they are used to!
    + Menu File, Move/Copy/Backup To: reorganized the submenus, and 
      added new submenu "Current Tabs": now you can trigger file ops to 
      tabs without the mouse.
    + New keyboard shortcuts:
        Menu View/Show Catalog:           F8
        Menu View/Date Column Format/Age: Ctrl+Shift+E
        Menu View/Refresh Thumbs Cache:   none
      This command has no menu interface (where should I put it??):
        Show hidden files and folders:    Ctrl+Shift+H
    ! Shifting tabs by drag'n'drop: wrong insertion point icon position 
      when tab strip did not touch the left window border. Fixed.
