Four would be truly nice . . . . Four panes; I'd go with one drivebar and one menubar and no trees. Love the way the wind blew this thread!

Not a physics person, me, but I had thought that the reason that sails work is not that air is blowing against them, pushing the boat along, but that air is flowing around them from one side, creating an airfoil, and the vacuum on the leeward side is sucking the boat along. If one is wondering, as t...

What do I have to do to get X2 to say "Computer says no!"? If I were doing something and drinking soda and this message popped up, I imagine I'd be cleaning liquid off of my screen and out of my keyboard. It is in the same ballpark as "The CPU cannot make any sense of the last input&q...

Thank you. Great news. I cannot wait to install it in my day-to-day work routine. One question about the license. I bought the Ultimate version with lifetime cover on 4 May 2019. The email that came with that noted that it was a lifetime cover key. The email I just got with the V5 upgrade said it wi...

Thanks for monitoring this. Your forum has always been a high-value, high-density place for reading and research. If you just would bring back Kilmatead . . .

One day I gotta take a couple of hours and really read that advanced option dialog. Firefox pops up nicely with the use-default-browser set. I am getting to good help pages on many dialogs with F1, but not customize keyboard and not the move-to copy-to. On the Move-to the question-mark method does g...

When I hit F1 I get Internet Explorer 11 as a web browser showing me the help page even though Firefox is the default browser on my system. The dialog opened at a good page for Mass Rename. Nothing at all happened with F1 in Customize Keyboard. Customize organize macros got to a user customization p...

A couple of days ago I installed the beta as a replacement for the current version, so that it is automatically what is started whenever X2 is begun. The beta is working fine. Have not seen a hiccup even with all my homegrown automation and 3XXXX-code poking: everything is working well (even the aut...

Separate width and height might do it. The quick peek popups are not all one size: for images I notice them popping up at different sizes depending on the image, so when you do the popup you apparently are (or something is) aware of the aspect ratio. In this case (images) a maximum width and a maxim...

Thanks for the pointer on peek preview size and position. The size setting is, I think, problematic. My screen is 3840x1600. If I set the setting to 50%, then text files (e.g.) do not display very widely across the screen, which is good, but the don't display very tall (only 800 pxiels), which is no...

Advanced options for miller columns and for peek preview animation work nicely, thanks. Peek Preview opens windows in a very unbalanced position. They are not centered on the screen; they are not centered on the X2 window from which they are opened. On my screen they are always toward the left. I've...

(1) In Miller-column view, when a column overflows vertically a very narrow scrollbar is put on the bottom of the pane. The scrollbar is only five pixels high -- too small to really grab reliably for me. (2) The peek preview is nice, but the animation is very distracting when opening a peek. I see f...

Ah, OK, thanks.

When I have thumbnail view on and open a folder with lots of images, only the first screenful of thumbnails gets loaded. One by one, but quickly, the thumbnails appear, and then the CPU meter goes flat. If I then press the page-down key to go to the next page, the same thing happens: one by one, but...

"dunno"'s post, two above, gave me this idea: How about a third tab in the preview panes: Hex (in addition, and to the right of, Draft and Native)? Save me having to turn to my hex viewer (HxD freeware very good) from time to time. The previewer would have to display more than a narrow col...
