XYplorer Beta Club

I was using Xplorer2 for many years as file manager replacement for Windows' File Explorer. Last week I discovered this great file manager - XYplorer. I bought lifetime license and now in the process of switching all my home desktop and laptop computers to XYplorer. In Xplorer2, when tab is locked it puts lock icon in the tab. XYplorer using underline when tab is locked. So, my wish:

It would be nice to have lock icon implemented into locked tab instead of underline.

this does what you describe

Code: Select all

"tab_lock_n_icon"
    $caption = tab("get", "caption");
    $icon_path = "path\to\icon";
    tab("lock");
    tab("rename","$caption|$icon_path") 

this does what you describe

Thanks for this. But I am only using XY for a week and I don't have a clue where to put this script.

Can you provide some guidance, please?

P.S.

I figured it out. This is cool.

Is there a way to remove underline in the locked tab?

Afaik: no

I'll add a tweak to make it possible.

You could add a tweak to let the user choose his own icon that gets automatically applied to locked tabs as well

I'd like it

I'd find it odd if all locked tabs showed the same icon. I use icons for orientation.

TabLockedUnderlined=0
The factory default and previous hard setting is TabLockedUnderlined=1.
Now you can switch it off

I installed latest beta on one PC. It works. Thank you!!!

So you found out how to tweak by yourself? Smart!

Sounds like a plan.
