All fixed.

Now, if you would expose the undocumented PFAllowZombies tweak to the undocumented tweak command, I can retire my papyrus script.

On a single pane view,
If you drag a file from one tab to a paper folder the (+) shows but when the tab switches to view the paper folder, the (+) in the main list section disappears unless you press CTRL (copy).
It does allow dropping on the actual paper folder tab (add to folder) but not in the main folder i.e. not a valid drop target or something.

Also noticed on dual pane mode, not specific to paper folders;
When dragging from one pane to the other pane with a non active tab, the (+) shows on the tab, but the tab does switch in that deactivated pane, drop still works on the tab,
but it doesn't activate/show the tab where you want to drop the file.

Also could you build in an option to warn users i.e. me that the DELETE button in a paper folder will delete the actually file, or provide a setting to prevent real files being deleted accidental, another option would be to change the DELETE default behaviour for a paper folders to remove the item from the paper folder instead of actually deleting the file being pointed to.

I am sure at some point I will hit delete thinking I am removing the item from the paper folder.

Have tried it with tweaking to the absolute path and it works great. Many thanks!!

Maybe it would be a good idea to document the "tweakability" of XY variables in the help one day. I think that it is currently not mentioned there (or I overlooked it).

Also Don, once again, can you implemented the new PaperPath to be used in Admin.ini?

Also curious but can you perhaps implement a variable for layouts (toolbars and columns?)? Regarding toolbars and columns, It seems like a good idea to implement a menu item for it to save and load just like how you did it with layouts. Basically updating these to a GUI friendly way.

1. Confirmed and fixed.
2. Known and not fixed (technically uber-tricky).
3. Yes, added an option.

Ok!

Also, the "l" parameter for the SC PaperFolder, I still don't get what it does. The changelog is a bit vague. I have a PaperFolder named Temp that I have various files in it. Tried playing with the "l" parameter but could not figure out what it does.
PaperFolder("Temp", , , "l");

When pressing Ctrl+B to add a paper folder to Favorites, the result shown were inconsistent.
Firstly I only saw the following message when I pressed Ctrl+B and no entry of paper:NAME was created in Favorites Then suddenly, it started to work but now Ctrl+B instead of toggling favorites status started adding duplicates favorites of paper:NAME

Yep, bug. Coming...

Code: Select all

unset favorite: paper:NAME

Confirmed. Fix comes.

But, when going from a tab with a paper folder to another tab with a normal folder, the path column stays active (in all tabs actually). Not good, I would say.

"Always Show Path Column" has no effect on me. "Path" is still not shown
Win7 x32, Classic theme

There are certain conditions/priorites. E.g. it does not happen on tab switch (tabs remeber ther columns anyway). Try to change locations within a tab...

Bug:
1. set Always Show Path Column
2. goto a paper folder
3. Untick the Always Show Path
4. Click "Go back" to enter a normal folder
The Path doesn't disappear, because XY assumes, the option was unticked when I entered the paper folder.

To avoid: don't change this option when you are in a paper folder.

Not a bug but totally expected. Or what did you expect?
