Wowee thanks for the Aliases Entry Filtering, Mathias !! This will definitely go a long way ! 👍 (MC already helps me make backup copies of files & stuff, so I'am 10X more productive 😊)

Wow! You got lots of aliases.. even more then me,  I think a search box can be added quite easy. Integrating it with auto-complete is another thing. Maybe later. Add it to my list as separate things.

for #1 and #2, I added them to request feature list. They are a bit complex. But I consider them when planing larger thing to implement.

Alright, that would be incredible —thanks a lot ! Always needed a Search Filter for my Aliases (I must have 75+ Aliases IDK) ! The rest can wait, and thank you for taking them into consideration !

#3 Implement a search box field in the Aliases dialog to facilitate entry filtering. This feature is particularly beneficial when navigating through numerous entries (helps de-cluttering), akin to locating a needle in a haystack. The search functionality should ideally encompass both labels and paths. See screenshot (I have too many entries ! (Button Panel is full too !)):  :( P.S: The challenge is that aliases are typically brief, necessitating specificity in search queries to effectively narrow results. P.P.S: It would be optimal if the CommandBar Auto-Complete feature in item #1 could also incorporate Alias suggestions.

Thanks for the reply, I will post the MC version along /w a screenshot ASAP.
P.S: Nevermind, it's shown correctly for version 15.4 Beta ! I just updated successfully. :D

Why is the update notification for MultiCommander displayed while the dialog box remains empty and does not provide details about the update contents ? Could this be indicative of a bug ? I conducted some research and would like to confirm whether this update is exclusively for Windows 11 users, as I am currently using Windows 10.

#1 I would like the CommandBar to implement auto-completion functionality for Most Recently Used (MRU) paths. When I start typing a previously accessed path, the system should suggest completions based on my recent navigation history, similar to the auto-complete feature in Windows Explorer's CommandBar.
This should make navigating between lots of folders a breeze ! (Ideally, the auto-completion functionality should be restricted to folder paths only, excluding files from the suggestions (it would be beneficial if MC could also index bookmark folders.) Preferably, display matches should be presented in both a dropdown list and as a text selection completion within the Command Bar.)

#2 I previously suggested this functionality, but I would prefer to have the Ctrl+PageUp/PageDown hotkeys reassigned for navigating to the next/previous tabs instead of Ctrl+Tab. Allowing customization of these hotkeys would be particularly beneficial, as I utilize JPEGView instead (so this adjustment should not conflict with existing keybindings) of MultiDataViewer due to issues with the built-in Picture Viewer.

I really appreciate you adding this feature —it's truly indispensable for me ! Thank you so much ! 😍 Oh, and it even displays the Bytes Count —how cool is that ?!

The best would be if the current confirmation windows handled it.
Definitely.

but they does not know total number of subfiles/folders that would be copyed/deleted yet (only first level of selected). and that would require a major rewrite.
Understandable

But showing an extra dialog might be added. It would annoy most people. so it will defenetly have to be something you enable. not standard behaviour..
Yes this would be okay, I'll definitely use it !! Please it's important, I use my HDD to store lots of archived content, an accidental deletion would be catastrophic (like every fortnight I get DirectX Wrapper updates on Github & I have to delete the old zips, it's a very risky procedure), use 2 dialog boxes if necessary to get it done no problem…
The first dialog box can show the Delete/Copy/Move Count, & the second dialog box can ask for confirmation (I have confirmation boxes enabled in settings.) 👍

9
But you want to show an extra dialog when it scanned and collected what files and folders it would delete.. for each time you do a delete and ask (eg.. Sure you want to delete 43 files and 3 folders? ) ??

Yes that would be heavensent, so I know I haven't ticked an unintended file/folder or it hadn't mistakenly ticked it automatically w/o my consent ! It could be in a separate dialog box prior to the confirmation dialog box (I always confirm deletions/copy/move) or it could be in one dialog box (preferably !) An option to enable this would be optimal, thanks !
P.S: Also would be nice to see count for all other operations as well (including Copy/Move)… Like this: "Sure you want to delete 43 files and 3 folders?" but also for all other file operations. It's a great security feature when you're constantly updating portable games from the internet like me, or moving e-Books around, so you know exactly what's happening beforehand, & don't accidentally delete something precious…

10
Multi Commander does not explicitly mention displaying the count of items to be deleted in its Delete Dialog Box. Would be nice to view the Deleted Files/Folder Count beforehand ! Useful if say I accidentally selected another file/folder as well w/o realizing !  ;)

11
Oh wow, that is great to hear ! Thank you ! Something to look forward to in the future !!  :)

12
No wait, Spacebar & Backspace keys work !!!  :)  But it would still be nice to use ArrowKeys for Images in DataViewer Navigation…

13
After updating to the latest Beta (the latest one which reads long paths in Images in built-in DataViewer), by a stroke of genius I found out that running in a duplicate portable copy folder, I'am able to cycle through images in built-in DataViewer by pressing the blue Back & Forward Buttons in the Image DataViewer's Menu. I was wondering where the hotkeys for these reside, so I can try changing the keys for this & stop using JPEGView for images. When I press Spacebar it displays the next image in the foler, but the ArrowKeys & PageUp/Down don't work, perhaps re-customizing the hotkeys might fix this ?! (if I knew where they were in the Keyboard Customization)…
P.S: Please allow the Tab Forward/Backward cycling keys to be customized. I don't like Ctrl+Tab/Ctrl+Shift+Tab for cycling tabs, I would prefer Ctrl+PageUp/PageDown instead, if that means clearing the hotkey for the Image cycling (or whatever) Ctrl+PageUp/PageDown I will do that if I have to !

Please allow customizing/ setting hotkeys for back & forward cycling of images & Tabs !!

14
In my MC, the File Type Setup Icons only skins the "Details" view mode icons, not the icons in the "Thumbnail List" view mode. Wish it would skin the icons in the Thumbnails View as well, though I can understand that images etc. /w an associated Preview Handler capability would mean the Previews in the Thumbnails would stop working, & only the static custom Icons would display —that would be an issue ! Anyway, is this a known bug ?

15
Yes sometimes the Hotkeys does not trigger, but it happens ever so rarely for me. Also could be the built-in Picture Viewer —I switched to JPEGView app (on Github) to handle opening my image previews & had great success in doing so.

I would also like to address the issue of being able to re-assign Next/Previous Tab Navigate to a custom hotkey (in my case I want Ctrl+Page Up/Page Down to cycle between Tabs ! This would be optimal for my use, as it more closely mimics my Edge Browser shortcut key.

16
Thanks, I got it to work thanks to both of your help. AI helped write the MultiScript:

Code: [Select]
@var $name = PathGetNamePart( GetSourceFocusPath(), 1 );
MC.Run CMD="C:\\Users\\dell\\Documents\\fba64_029743\\fba64.exe" ARG="{$name} -r 1366x768x32"

17
I need the MultiTag to open the currently selected file (via Custom Menu) to the app, without the path, only the filename without the extension even, and certainly not the full filepath. When I enter this in MSDOS it works: "C:\Users\dell\Documents\fba64_029743\fba64.exe garou" (without quotes) but in MultiCommander I tried both variants of ${focusfilepath}: ${focusfilename} (returns only the name of the file that is currently in focus, without its path) and ${focusfile} (identifier to return the filename with its extension) but they both don't work (I'am entering these as a User Defined Command (External Command) into Custom Menu so I can right-click a file & open the game ROM selected in the FB Alpha program, as a command-line parameter (it accepts filenames only, w/o path and extension.) Please help me find the right MultiTag/identifier for this.

18
When you click restore. all your custom changes go away.

There is "Reset To Default" & "Reset" I clicked "Reset To Default" I think it only reverts the values in the current tab which is how I like it.

and there should be multiple items for the MCPictureViewer.

Also I replaced MC PictureViewr /w JPEGView so that I could cycle through images (but this is resolved now.) But some Entries disappear over time. Is there a requirement to insert paths in double quotes when there are spaces ? 😵 P.S: I think it was because I had wrapped double quotes around paths /w spaces. I'll let you know if it happens again. 👍 So far so good ! Resolved. It was because I had double quotes in my filepaths !

19
Sometimes when I click Restore Defaults it creates multiple cloned entries of the Built-In Viewers, then when I restart a few times it perhaps gets pruned out & some Entries I explicitly made vanishes. I will report if it happens again, but I had 3-4 Entries in Launchers & 1 of them disappeared, & also some Textfile Editors I added. Needs to be more reliable, the File Type Setup, I'am just speculating, but if those multiple Entries don't appear when clicking Restore Defaults, then maybe the Entries won't get deleted upon next restart.  :o Even when I don't click Restore Defaults, it sometimes loses a few Entries.

20
Sorry for the trouble but I have a bunch of Entries in File Type Setup but they aren't persistent & randomly some Entries disappear, & I have to re-enter them constantly. If you could fix that in a future update that would be brilliant ! 😊

By typing ":goconfig" in command line field, it will go to the config folder that are used. then you see what config files it is using

Noice !

Well it is stable since it works for me and I cannot reproduce any issues. :)

Not like I have a test department. Stuff only gets fixed if people can report a way to reproduce it. :) So maybe if somebody else have issue with it. They can report it so I can reproduce it.

I understand. I have like 20 different Image Viewers, together /w K-Lite Codec Pack & Window Blinds 10, these things are bogging my system down, I had even more but I reduced the apps startup considerably. It's still overkill I know. I may be able to run some tests once it gets into Stable download. At first I thought it was only /w my MultiCommander which is old, but now even fresh copies are broken, & I removed the APPDATA\Roaming folder. These things take time, I won't prolong this matter further… Ty for making such a wonderful app ! 🙏

Yeah don't worry I'll use JPEGView till I figure it out, I keep tweaking endlessly, I might have disabled something on my system that's why. I use a lot of Group Policy Editor configs & stuff so… Also in Help About > It says it's in fact running in Portable Mode, must be a stray folder that got into MC startup. Maybe I can do more tests once this MC PicViewr Beta update goes into Stable, so I don't have to update the Portable when testing !

It say it failed to load image.. guess there are lots of none image files there

I went to a folder full of 22 .JPG images only & still same issue.

If settings are stored in APPDATA then you are not running portable.
There only different between portable and not is a default configuration option in app/config/multicommander.xml

Also what is the App > Config > MultiCommander.xml setting to make it run Portable that you speak of please ? Maybe because it's running from APPDATA\Roaming is why my fresh d'ld Portable copies also were broken when trying to cycle images. I will test further & try to fix this glitch, by duplicating the folder & finding the heart of the problem. 😲

It still doesn't work, but here's the Application Log when I'am invoking the PictureViewr & pressing Space/Backspace, & I gotta ask: why is it storing settings in APPDATA\Roaming ?! I'am running the Portable Beta version though. P.S: The second log in the same textfile is better as I experimented /w launching Images more /w it. Also could this be a Windowz 10 problem ? I'am running kinda low on disk space & I'am using K-Lite Codec Pack, if that helps.
