debug version but without the assertions so it is bearable
checkout the changelog and see if you can break anything

Looks good at a quick glance, I'll try and break it later!!

I take it you aren't interested in the Assertion errors on close, unless there is a problem.

Native preview of images (jpg) has something odd.

If I increase the width of the preview window to half the width of the main window the preview is no longer autosized, there is a vertical scroll bar on some images.

Reducing the width of the preview, then selecting another image and autosizing is O.K. again.

It looks as if it's because the width of the image is less than the preview width and therefore does not need to be resized, but the height is greater than the preview window.

Autosizing appears to only check the width. I think it should take into account the width and height of the images.

O.S. is XP.

I am seeing a strange black background on PsPad icons, that was not there on the previous version.

No other icons display this so far. Doesn't matter how I display the pane, detail, list, icons, thumbnail etc, it is still the same.

Still seeing run error on XP Pro and Vista Hm Prem.
Hi-rez skins not working on either.

what run error would that be?
did you add the extra dual folder icon in your skins?

you should extract all the files in one location, as it is essential that the manifest file is next to the kenny.exe (that could be your problem vserghi?)

Eh? So we're up to 75 icons on the skin? I'll remake the skins and try again.

Re dual folders: I LOVE the concept, but I'm not sure it's working as expected. I can only "Add" a set if in Dual-Pane made (good), but when I then open the bookmark, it opens as tabs in a folder set (bad?) rather than dual panes.... (Am on XP right now. Will try later with VIsta).

dual bookmarks only make sense in dual pane mode, otherwise use the existing folder (tab) groups scheme from customize menu

Yippie! Aint it perdy!?

The new 75th dual bookmark icon is on the second toolbar, on the right.
I'll update the classic hirez skins as soon as I see what your default looks like.

Yes, The dual bookmarks do open correctly if I'm already in dual pane mode... Question: Shouldn't it open the second pane for me, if it's not already open???

Here is the debug message...
Note that it only pops up on "exit" not on "close."
---------------------------
debug
---------------------------
some assertions failed, do you want to see the log file?
---------------------------
Yes No
---------------------------
I'll send you (Nikos) the contents of the log file as a PM.

EDIT: 48x48 is working now too!
It makes my toolbars unusably huge--bit is still AWESOME!

EDIT2: I think I found the problem in the log file...

FYI on XP, if I make the folder tree show large icons, then disable it, the icons re-space themselves correctly vertically, but not horizontally.

Hiding/showing the folders or the pane doesn't fix it, but closing or exiting (then re-opening) does.

Nope. the manifest file is in the same folder as kenny. If it was the manifest file, surely it would affect more than one icon?

I noticed it on Win2K8 R2 x64 as well

icons look nice but you must leave some space for working area too!

vserghi, are you talking about thumbnail view mode or normal icons? Can you double check the old and alpha version side by side?

pschroeter · Post by **pschroeter** » 2011 May 20, 05:01

But I sure would like to see the changelog, even if I don't download this, so I can get a glimpse into the future.

What does "debug version but without the assertions" mean?

Can I, and how would I, install this version so it leaves my current x2 setup alone?
