Re: declone .15 finds similar documents

In the new "Choose property" dialog: - Wishing it could be resizable in both directions. - Choosing a new item from the "Property categories" dropdown ignores the filter/type-ahead field, but also does not clear it - so the display becomes inconsistent. Of course, typing anything...

Re: No thumbnails displayed for webp file

No, the Preview pane's Native tab renders the HMTL formatting but the Draft tab shows the HTML source. What does that tell us? The Details pane shows the icon for HTML file type. Not sure what "HTML thumbnail" means Haha

Re: No thumbnails displayed for webp file

Probably Yes at some point, not sure about now, but don't remember how to check that. My %LocalAppData%\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\IE is current and gets re-populated if I clear it out.

Re: testers wanted

Very nice start! This program is already useful, even in non-expert mode. I agree the field of clonezapper programs needs this. Suggestions: - In the main window, add Alt-hotkeys to the toolbar button labels. - Wishing that F5 would do a Refresh, incorporating filesystem changes that have taken plac...

Re: testers wanted

TBH the Windows Browse for Folder dialog is useless without DirectFolders. My apps use the Open File common dialog, because the ease of use from features that people expect is worth the tradeoff of confusion, IMO.

Re: No thumbnails displayed for webp file

What about WebPs in the Preview / Quick viewer? On upgrade from 5.0.0.2 to 5.0.0.3 Ult x64, the Draft pane is no longer blank, which is good, but it displays hex data, which is not up to par. The Details pane shows a placeholder icon based on filetype, rather than a small version of the picture, lik...

Re: blog: all about file date formats

This is great! Pretty much every time I (try to) write a commandline handler for the Programmable column's system() call, you add the information as a native feature :) so the handler becomes redundant. That's good because the most recent one was totally not working with 5.0.0.2 Ult.

Re: v5 released

Once again, an absolute win! With the features and other improvements... - Setting my own custom icon! And by that I mean the boring brown one from a previous version. - Quick-previewing graphics independently from Windows! Custom keystroke to switch between Draft and Native mode. - Peek via mouse b...

Re: Copy/Move dialog UI Nitpicks

Next round, using xp2 4.4.0.1 Ultimate x64. When in Dual Pane view, Edit -> 'Copy to' and 'Move to' both open the dialog box to select the destination. But Ctrl-F5 and Ctrl-F6 simply assume the other pane as the destination, and perform the operation without further prompting. This is great. But I w...

Re: taskbar icon jumplist (windows 10)

The windows task bar is not an xp2 issue, I believe. Don't even fool around - just try out these two utilities that do taskbar management:

Using 4.4.0.1 Ultimate from May 3, in the Tree pane it's easy to right-click Recycle Bin, choose xplorer2->Hide this folder, and Poof! Irrelevant tree items just disappear. Then to see the hidden entries again, right-click on some empty space and un-check/turn off "Use blacklist". Then to ...
