Extended environment variables support

If I add a catalog item with the environment varaible %programfiles% it works perfect in XY.

But if I add a folder after the variable like
%programfiles%\XYplorer\ it doesn't work

This seems to be an issue in the address bar as well.

WE to resolves this.

Oh, interesting. I slash the environment paths so your string
%programfiles%\XYplorer\
was resolved to
C:\Program Files\\XYplorer\

The double slash was the problem then.

Now I think slashing was no good idea, so I changed this. In the meantime you can take your slash away :wink:
%programfiles%XYplorer\

Code: Select all

Before, I slashed (put a backslash to the end) environment paths. So, e.g. %programfiles%\XYplorer\ was resolved to C:\Program Files\\XYplorer\The double slash, of course, creates a problem. Now, I changed this (no more slashing). So %programfiles%\XYplorer\ now will work in the address bar as expected
Thanks!
