Support and Feedback / Re: Config backup & Tab coloring

« on: February 27, 2017, 13:53:31 »

I found many values in the registry...

That's interesting (and glad you found a use for RegScanner ):  I have no entries whatever for MultiCommander, nor any containing "lookfor".

Hi Ulf.

Mathias tells me this isn't implemented (yet ).

I highly recommend this: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/regscanner.html

Did it work OK?

sorry, i'm not used to declare @var

Me either - I used a language that didn't use scripting at all , but it all makes sense! Trust Mathias

(BTW Jungle is the scripting guru here [certainly not me] - he'll always put you right)

MC is a damned good tool; learn the syntax (and take a little time to learn the difference between MultiScript & Custom Commands) and it all hangs together

Try:

@var $temp_scrap_file = ".\\Config\\Scrap\\scrap.txt";
@var $old_items[] = LoadArray($temp_scrap_file);

Support and Feedback / Re: Selecting 2 files + right-click selects 3rd file

I could reproduce the problem fairly easily:

I cannot reproduce this.

I followed your download & setup instructions exactly, navigated into a folder with 8 text files in, then:

Action: down-arrow to File2 & hit Insert
Result: File2 is selected, File3 has focus (as expected)

Action: right-click File2
Result: File3 loses focus & context menu opens (as expected)

Action: select "Edit" from the context menu
Result: only File2 remains selected & editor opens File2 only (as expected)

Hmmm.  I guess this an "opinion thing".

I vary rarely want to select the first item (file/folder) when I enter a folder.

And it is only one more keypress to do so

You are correct.  I will fix that.

I don't believe there is a MultiTag "sourcefilepath"

Hi Mathias.

Are there plans to add  StrReplaceChars() and StrReplaceCharsPairs() to the documentation?

If so, I feel some editing coming on

Thanks for the update, Mathias.

Thank you my friend - so far, so good in 2299

Thanks for that!

I have managed to crash Build 2298 (but in an - admittedly - unusual way )...

I created an expermental tab session with only C: on the left and D: on the right pane and saved it as "Root Tabs".  It showed correctly in slot #2.

I then switched back to Session #1 with Ctrl+I, Ctrl+1, but - by accident - hit Ctrl+I, Ctrl+2 (ie., the new session hotkey for the newly-created session in slot #2).  A crash report was created & sent to you & (of course) MC exited "ungracefully".

I realise that this sequence of events will not normally happen, but users do the strangest things   And that is what Beta testing is all about.

Please take a look at the report & let me know if you need more info.

Thanks Mathias.

I kinda guessed that was the issue.

Happy with the final result - you probably want to hear that I can't break it so far

VERY  useful feature

« on: December 10, 2016, 17:23:50 »

Maybe I have misunderstood something here...

I assumed the Session stored in slot #1 would accessed by Ctrl+I, Ctrl+1; the Session in slot #2 by Ctrl+I, Ctrl+2, and so on.  Was that correct?

If I cannot assign slots, what determines which hot key access which Session?


TIA

Well, nobody's perfect

Any plans to bring back slots at some stage...?

Build 2296.

Hi Mathias,
  Tab Sessions now deals correctly with locked tabs (well done!).

However, there is a truncated string in the Manage Sessions screen; should be "Session Name", I guess, but reads "Sessio" (see attached screenshot).

Shame you dropped slots - I was just getting used to using them 

293

Beta Releases / Re: Multi Commander 6.5 BETA

« on: December 07, 2016, 23:34:11 »

Hi Mathias.

My bad - I read that as "Ctrl + zero".

But the "tab is locked..." dialog for every locked tab is still a pain in the ass!!

Thanks for the clarification.

Hi Mathias.

I know why I get the dialogs, but that is not a very user-friendly way to restore tab sessions, IMHO.

Are you saying that:

ADDED - Double Hotkey for to Switch TabSession Ctrl+O and then Ctrl+1 to switch to first TabSession, and Ctrl+O + Ctrl2 for second and so on, up to 0

does not work at all?

Testing Tab Sessions in 2294.  Two issues arise:

1. When loading a saved session, I get the "Tab is locked - close it any way?" Dialog for every locked tab in the current session. Yuk!

2. The double hotkeys for saved sessions do not seem to work.  I saved my "Default Session" to slot #1, but ctrl+0, ctrl+1 does nothing.

Or is it me?

Beta Releases / Re: Multi Commander 6.5 BETA

« on: October 30, 2016, 14:19:48 »

Thanks for this Mathias.

These I will find very useful:

  ADDED - ExplorerPanel settings for not saving none locked tabs on exit (Only keep locked tabs)
  ADDED - Popup menu on Tabs now have command to "Close all none locked tabs"
  ADDED - CustomCommand "MC.CloseAllTabs" now have the option "KEEPLOCKED", that will close all tabs except locked.

Haven't managed to break anything in testing yet

Support and Feedback / Re: Create Folder (On Target) Bug?

« on: October 18, 2016, 23:51:58 »

I, for one, am confused.

Are you saying you were able, using your two commands, to create a folder with the same name as an existing file in the same path ?!

298

Support and Feedback / Re: Create Folder (On Target) Bug?

« on: October 17, 2016, 16:54:25 »

That all makes perfect sense:  "Target" is the "other" panel (the one without focus).

You cannot create a folder with the same name as a file (under the current path) in any Windows operating system - it is simply not allowed.

Maybe should list the command line paramters.   With them you do not need to go into settings. and if you do not go in there, nothing is written to registry

Now THAT sounds like a great idea
