XYplorer Beta Club

Is it possible to customize the text in the title bar so that only the path is shown??

TitlebarTemplate="<path>"
does work because <app> must be in there, I want it removed.

Also, is it possible to align the text to the left instead of center ?

There should be someway to do these things no ?

Centered? - I want that. How do you center it?

<app> is madatory
To center it, simply add enough space to the beginning

that's a lot of blanks - they shift the content out of view - and on another screen it will probably show up right-aligned.

But thanks for the hint - this would have never occured to me -seriously.

Get Windows 8.1 and it will be centered...all app titlebars all are.

Why is <app> mandatory ??
Another arbitrary decision!?

Let's call it a little reminder which file manager you're using...

Definitely not arbitrary. Same reason why you have "Toyota", "BMW", "Coca Cola", "Audi", "Ford" on your car.

Sometimes anonymity is uber cool, i.e: my colleague look at my laptop screen, trying to figure out how I have such a cool file manager. No way for them to see the word XYplorer. I said "I re-wrote Windows Explorer". Their faces make me feel muahaha

Exactly. Thanks to that, whenever anyone sees a screenshot of my XYplorer, they can tell right away which program I'm using and see how cool it can be. LOOK MA! I CAN CHANGE FONT SIZE WITH CTRL+SCROLLWHEEL!!

How many file manager can do THIS!! And you can still figure it's XYplorer.

Not quite. On my car the brand is on the outside while I'm inside, so it doesn't bother me while I drive.

In an application the titlebar is always in front of my eyes so having the name of the application just steals valuable screen space and it creates visual noise.
Anyway it's silly to promote an application with the brand name in the title bar.
While I'm using it i'm there. If someone asks what it is, word of mouth is a much better promoter

I'm always greedy for screen space, so I want to hide titlebar too. But, I won't bother Don because there's nice workaround: Simply move the window up a bit => titlebar will be off-screen. That's all

When i start using xyplorer I think I will use autohotkey to hide the toolbar, that seems to be the best solution so far.
