64bit xyplorer - USER - Manage Commands

Post by mumajs »

Hi Don, I am using latest xyplorer 64bit and strange behavior happened to me today. I hope I can describe how to reproduce it. I am using User defined commands feature. For example for simply going to the C: or D: drive and assign the hotkey to them. But also open with and so on. Today I figured out when you assign the hotkey and do an alt-tab to other app and then back to xyplorer the manage commands window disappear and xyplorer is not clickable. You can close it however by Alt+F4

- enable "User defined commands feature"
- go to User - Manage User-Defined Commands
- add Go To command for example to C: (however it can be also open with)
- click on assign keyboard shortcut and assign shortcut (for example shift+C)
- now still with the "Manage User-Defined Commands" window open do an ALT-TAB to another app and then another alt-tab to xyplorer
- the window "Manage User-Defined Commands" is gone and you cannot do anything in xyplorer
- use ALT+F4 to close xyplorer
- when you try to use Ctrl+Alt+F9 before closing xyplorer to try to open "Manage User-Defined Commands" again it shows error 400

The window isn't really gone, it's (just) behind your XY window.

But ofc this is a bug, it should stay in front when returning from the alt-tab...

Yeah, I also saw some issues with the order of windows in the TB version. It's a real pain when a modal window suddenly appears behind its parent. I'll pass it on to the TB folks.
