I don't think toolbar buttons steal focus... They don't usually, but I write many things that have preliminary popup context menus from said toolbar-button, and after that the world's gone dark. I don't like testing strings either, but like I said, tabs... try determining if/which tabs are in play ...

GetFocus().GetWindowText()... That's only half the story dude, for if one clicks a toolbar button to invoke it, or is doing something else, while the pane "looks" active, and is active in our minds, it actually doesn't have the focus, so we need to get a little more creative... This is th...

And so I've been chastisably reluctant to try this new version. The only real difference (aside from the Options redesign/kerfuffle/débâcle/"gate") in this version which could interfere in this regard is the optional change in the addressbar (to the monstrously pointless and misnomer-ed &...

ps . actually try sending it a refresh command directly, it should work without tabbing The trouble there is I need to know which pane is active to begin with (easier said than done when 3rd-party scripting), and is it a scrap pane, dual pane, scrap-window, or not? I think I tried that originally -...

Yeah, see? That's where the pots and pans start clanging away like wind-chimes in an unfriendly breeze.

I did actually check if the 33163 refreshes both panes in .12 since you admitted it was "probably an oversight", but apparently you didn't think to fix that one.

...then you only need an extra command to refresh the inactive view And don't I have to wrangle about tabbing across to the opposite pane before refreshing it and then tabbing back? Using the options-dialogue gives the two-pane refresh without faffing about with pots and pans. There's no targeted r...

and probably you are wrong because whichever way you flip the hidden attribute, the folder pane refreshes, which erases the selection Ah, but you see, in my own megalomaniacal control-freak fashion I use scripting to individually read the selection states of each entry (in each pane) before the ref...

...it does the state flipping for .12 It does, though it's kind of a workaround to have the unsuspecting user need to reference an obscure beta thread to find this... if the recorder identified things properly, it would be more homogeneous. Do people who believe that beauty is in the eye of the beh...

The ratio of my recommendations-to-implementations is a wonder I have any self-confidence left at all. Having a thick skin allows for a certain aloofness and l'indifférence to worldly concerns; it's oddly relaxing. Aside from the bug-fixes from .11, I haven't encountered anything of world-shattering...

Be careful what you write - "Walls have ears". It's more their five eyes you need to worry about, not their ears so much. Tactically speaking, Nikos' customary lack of punctuation and capitalisation is perfectly pitched to send all bureaucrats into a tizzy of undermining self-doubt and ch...

Are you saying you're NOT @Kilmatead? Curiously enough, after spending whole days in multiple embassies enduring the endlessly demeaning (and repetitive) paperwork/electronic-fingerprinting/anal-probing, and all the rest for what your ridiculous modern world would consider "legal" resurre...

...can use get_accState to "see" the existing item state, but you can't do that with any x2 macro commands Should be a SETTEXT BRITTANYSPEARS "FlipMeBabyOneMoreTime" command or something for Version 7... but for hidden files, don't bust yourself, search for HIDDEN in command fin...

Ah, thank you. That would have been easier if your macro-recorder could have identified the culprits first - I got the gist though. I suppose you're going to make me jump through a conditional hoop just to toggle hidden files... apparently yes means yes and no means no, not "XOR my arse"? ...

and who pray is the culprit for the proliferation of minute options? Not me! That's right - blame the new guy. You never said any of those carrier-pigeons I sent from the desert island actually made it through with my complaints! Like it would have killed you to send back a jar of peanut-butter ins...

or does version 5 have the same problem? Version 5 doesn't have MGAO3_NOSAVEGLOBAL, that's new to .11 (not even in .10), so no, neither a regressive nor retroactive mosquito. It was added after Nikos pondered his questionable navel after this , "btw 'save settings on exit' is a bit of a cheat&...
