That's a bad thing to do. Anyhow there is no harm in using the full potential of the dialog from this menu also.

Actually I don't mind the warning. What is more important is, what happens after I select "Yes". I expect x2 to MOVE the item (without its secondary streams), and then delete the original. Probably x2's logic is, since I haven't moved the item in its entirety, it should preserve the origin...

BUG: Robust move fails when secondary stream can't move

Robust Move operation fails when secondary stream can't be moved. * A COPY is created at destination, but the destination folder's display does not update (we have to manually refresh the view) * The original file is not deleted after the transfer. Thus effectively this becomes a COPY and not a MOVE...

The work is simple (and small really). Secondly, no public review is needed.
So we don't need any truly collaborative tools.

1. I will post my stuff on Dropbox and provide links here.
2. All volunteers discuss the sharing here.
3. Then everyone just sends his output to me through email.

When I said "collaboration", I didn't mean live simultaneous editing, as in Google docs. My idea is to still continue with the (resurrected) odt file, which yields the final pdf file. The contribution from others will come indirectly: 1. I will share the ppt template (just one page with a ...

Yes, but the backup was on another partition of the same disk, which fried together! :(

BUG: The "Current Keys" pane remains blank

In the newly added "customize context menu" feature, the Select Menu Command window does not show the currently used keys in the right side pane ("Current keys").

Why is a checkbox added to filter in F5/Robust delete?

A checkbox is added to the filter section in Robust Transfer and Robust delete dialog boxes, with the stated purpose of "to quickly activate last filter used (if any)". The checkbox is unsuited for the stated purpose. A leading checkbox without any label has only one purpose: To activate/d...

Change the target for dual bookmark example

x2 provides a sample for dual bookmark. If a user tries to use this sample on a laptop, x2 pops out the DVD drive (expecting the user to insert a disk) also and reports an error.

Instead, please use targets that are always available on all laptops and desktops.

Robert2 is asking for a new feature: dual tab sets.
(Just like how the single-pane bookmark was extended to a dual-pane bookmark, the tab set can also be extended to cover both panes.)

Even that can be accommodated in the bookmark menu.

Combine all types of bookmarks in one place

x2 actually has THREE different types of bookmarks: 1. Single bookmark (load one tab in active pane) 2. Dual bookmark (load one tab in each pane) 3. Folder group (load a set of tabs in active pane) Since the purpose is the same, they should be accessible from a single ("BOOKMARK") menu. In...

Well, here is just an idea. Whether we will proceed or not depends on how many volunteers we get as writers and illustrators.

The new manual is well under way. That is to say, I had a disk crash, and all I had was an old version (1.7.0.0) of the source file (odt). So I had to re-write the manual from v1.7.0.0 till 1.8.0.0. Now  I am writing the text for all new features from 1.8.0.0 till 2.0.0.8. Then I will be adding new ...

Token or not, the RegEx should be able to manipulate the following:

1. File properties (e.g. value of any column; including path, extension, basename, etc).
2. Item's position in the active/inactive pane
