Yep, now it works. There is one bug though:
- select a bunch of files (10) > it shows correct data
- unselect one with ctrl+click (9 selected) > it shows disk free/used info as if none were selected
PS: interestingly enough, when I unselect with lasso, it updates correctly.

Recently I have noticed my first 2 statusbar sections returning no info when switching tabs sometimes, example pic below, so far has only happened on external drives, FYI I don't have Custom SB enabled.

Another thing I noticed while testing is that if you use for example this as a template "* - <s:duration>" the output includes |s| before the length, I assume that the * shortcut is non compatible when combined with the |s| since the non shorthand way is the same, just thought I'd mention it, I won't personally be affected by it.
Code: Select all
statusbartemplate('* - <s:duration>', 1);
goto quicksearch("{:Media} /l=1", "%USERPROFILE%");

Code: Select all

...Now you can optionally prefix a name of your choice (it can even
have spaces) to the info selector, separated by ":". It will be prefixed
to the result (only if there is a result, that's the cool part) separated
by colon-space (": ")...
This is actually cool, but why force a hardcoded ": " prefix? Isn't it better to let users decide an appropriate format?
For instance, there is already enough colons in "Duration: 01:00:52" and users might prefer something else.
A better way:
Code: Select all
<get BytesSelected '' 1 'Bytes: {}'>
Bytes: 11 148 446 398
Code: Select all
<get BytesSelected '' 1 '{} Bytes'>
11 148 446 398 Bytes
Code: Select all
<get LengthsSelected a 4 'Duration >> {}'>
Duration >> 01:00:52
Code: Select all
<get LengthsSelected a 4 'Duration [{}]'>
Duration [01:00:52]
Code: Select all
<prop #image.dimensions 'Size: {} px'>
Size: 123 x 456 px

Not bad. Would also be better for languages like Arabic. I think instead of {} we could just use *.

There are too many. I'm afraid you will have to consult the help file.

Another thing I noticed that has started happening recently is the status bar not being in sync with the list pane/BC bar. eg.

Unfortunately I haven't got repro steps, just something to keep an eye out for. Like the previously mentioned issue I have also only noticed this happen so far when using removable drives, although that could be coincidental. Screenshot taken using v22.60.0011.

I think I worked out the cause of above mentioned issues, I had NoPropertiesStartup tweak set, which now causes weird things to happen in the status bar on tab switch, like the 2 issues I have previously mentioned, among others. Until now I was under the impression it only applied to the IP.
Another thing I noticed while testing is that statusbartemplate(,-2); doesn't seem to work unless the config dialog has been opened once during the session, or a custom template has been set first/simultaneously. To clarify, if you load fresh and run that, it will actually enable it (the query return = 1), but the effects aren't seen immediately, it is the same using 1 etc. for the second param too.
