Feature Requests and Suggestions / MultiUpdate Behaviour
« on: September 06, 2016, 13:35:01 »
I have 2 installations of MC (both Portable, 64-bit).

I want the "test" environment to download available Betas, but the "live" one to download only stable installs.

The problem is that MultiUpdate stores its settings in the registry (not good for a Portable app, IMHO).

This means that if I download a Beta in the test setup, the next time I use the live setup it, too, will download the Beta.

My request is that MultiUpdate stores its settings in a local .ini (or .xml) file instead.

Support and Feedback / Re: Custom Keyboard keys for Multi-Rename?
« on: August 23, 2016, 11:17:13 »
You need to do this via a User-defined Command.  Create the command (Configuration -> User Defined Commands) as follows:

Command type:  Internal Commands
Module:  MultiRename
Command:  MultiRename

Save it with a meaningful name and assign your Hotkey Ctrl+M to it.

Many thanks.

But read my last post in "Support and Feedback"...

308
But only in a specific situation in MC 6.4.6 (2246)...

If I lock all my tabs (Allow Subpath change); close MC; reopen MC: all is well: no logged error and all tabs (including REG:) remain locked.

But if I load a set of tabs from a .mctab file, I get the error logged, and the tab is, indeed, not locked.

Script to load tabs:
Code: [Select]
@var $xTabFile = "${mcconfigpath}" + "\\MultiCommander Tab Config.mctab";

// Do NOT move the line below or Colouring Rules break!
MC.Explorer.SetColoringRules NAME="";

MC.CloseAllTabs DONOTASK;
MC.LoadTabs REPLACE FILENAME={$xTabFile};

MC.SetActiveTab PANEL=RIGHT TAB=1;
MC.SetActiveTab PANEL=LEFT TAB=1;

Let me know if you need more info Mathias.

Hi Mathias.

Are you going to offer build 2246 as a full, final install?  It is rock-solid :)

How exactly did you hide it?

Which version of MC are you using?

I bet myself you would say that ;)  Thanks - no issues at all so far.

Have you considered taking a day of rest and NOT touching the keyboard at all? :)

Hi Mathias.

I have updated and begun testing...

I can confirm the "REG: at root" locking issues is fixed - thanks for that.

But 2246 does not identify itself as a Beta...?

Support and Feedback / Unexpected Error for a REG: Tab
« on: August 11, 2016, 17:09:48 »
I have a default set of tabs across 2 Explorer Panels, all of which are Locked - Allow Subpath change.

But since installing  build 2242, I get an entry in the log at startup, such as:

"2016-08-11 15:48:55.745 [3012] Cannot lock path. Path don't exists : REG:\"

I am able to set the tab to "Lock Tab - Allow subpath change"

Still no cats, but...

I just re-tested with build 2242, but this time I did not set the column layout with 'Length Total' as 'Default' - I set it only for the folders that contain audio files.

No crashes to date.

Looking good Mathias!

Andras,
  you can hide all the toolbars outside the explorer panels and the menu bar too, of course.

Since you are a keyboard user, it is easy to create simple user-defined commands to launch calc, notepad, etc.  and assign them to your own hot keys :)

Is there a hidden file or folder with the name 'Desktop'?

318
You are trying to overwrite a user's Desktop folder (and it already exists).

By default that folder is read-only...

In Admin-Mode works the overwriting of existing files not.

Win 7 Pro x64
Works for me in Admin mode.

I guessed.

I don't think the "tab" caused it because that is only change the focus. But all extra data field like length and stuff and going on in the background.
Did it not send dump automatic ?

The mention of "tab" was just to give you context - I switched to the other Explorer Panel (ie. I hit the "tab" key).  I didn't imagine that was a problem.

The folder I switched to contains only .lnk files (all to programs).

MC crashed fatally and so was unable to invoke MultiCrashReport.exe, so - No, there was no crash report sent to you.

A folder Users\...\Appdata\local\CrashDumps was created (containing a xxx.dmp file) but that is now empty ?!  (Housekeeping software I guess).

BTW, I don't have any cats ;)

Norton AV is just plain wrong (and often is!).

Avast! is happy with all the MC .exes and .dlls (and always has been) and so is VirusTotal.

323
It would be useful to have the 'Audio Length' column work for flac files.  The 'Length Total' column works OK, but is slow because of the recursive scanning.

Test the new Beta that are out later today. (2235+)
I fixed a possible buffer overrun issue that might have been triggered during this..

Well, all went well for about 30 minutes. Then I tabbed into a folder that contains only shortcuts (.lnk) and it crashed :(

Shall I send you the .dmp file?

Hi Mathias.

Yes, the column layout was saved  as "Save current layout as default".  But shouldn't the irrelevant column be ignored if it does not apply to the file type?  Explorer does that...

Maybey SusanG should  let us know if that is her setup.  Hey, Susan!
