Last post by hacime - October 01, 2026, 15:30:29

Hello,

I've made some modifications in button bar in this wonderfull application, I've 16 buttons in 2 rows.

In the last button which copies the path name tooltip does not show up.

What I want to achive is to get desc value {m,201} from ExplorerPanel_lang_en XML file, however, it just shows #{m,201} when hovering the button.

Any help would be appreciated.

Best regards.

Might be able to add a workaround for it.. If It fails because of metadata.. It might be able to read file into memory.. strip metadata.. and then load the image.

Thank you for your reply. I seemed to figure out how to replicate my original issue. The problem only occurs if you have a file tree displayed. If a file tree is not displayed all worked as it should.

My apologies, but I always keep the file tree displayed. I decided to try it without it, so having the file tree displayed seems to be the problem. At least, for me.

MC do not decode jpg it self.. MC is using WIC  (Windows Imaging Component) So I don't know if there is anything I can do about it.

According to an AI analyze of the image
"The problem is its EXIF block (APP1, 2005 bytes). It contains a small thumbnail, and the thumbnail's Compression tag (0x0103) is written with type LONG instead of SHORT, which the EXIF spec requires."

Attached I send an example of JPEG image which is not shown in viewer (F3), but EXIF info is read (at least partially).
Gimp shows more image info and displays this image properly.
Newest MC version: 16.6, build 3221.

Minor UI issues in v17
I've noticed three possible UI regressions in v17:

• The italicized text in the Size field for space-ani.gif appears slightly clipped or extends beyond its bounds. It displays correctly in v16.
• Clicking an empty area doesn't deselect the checkboxes. If this is intentional, please disregard—but I'd prefer the previous behavior.
• Bug: Gridlines missing in Thumbnail view in v17
  In MultiCommander v17, gridlines are not displayed in Thumbnail (64×64) view; they appear only in Details view. Gridlines display correctly in Thumbnail view in v16. Additional issue: The FileName text is also clipped in Thumbnail view, as shown in the attached screenshot.

Otherwise, v17 is great. I love it!

Thanks for your time. Unfortunaly uploading the dumpfile isnt working. I;m getting "502 bad gateway". The file is 375 mb, so quite big. Is there another way to send the file?

Mabye this works:
swisstransfer [dot] com/dl/01a0ed05-d34e-70d0-9dbd-60963d8dab8b

Thanks in advance.

375mb even when zipped ?  The server should support file up to a 1GB.  Not sure why you can't upload.

[Bug: Sorting Column Resets When Reopening a Panel]

Bug: Sorting Column Resets When Reopening a Panel

Can you serialize the Sorting Column so it remembers which column (in my case Date Descending) even when all Tabs are closed ? Wasn't an issue in V16, V17 has a glitch where reverts the Sorting Column to Name when all Tabs in the Panel are closed and you open 1 new Explorer Panel. Please fix this minor issue so the Sorting Column stays persistent across Tabs Panel complete closing & then re-opening from scratch!

Could the active sort column and direction be persisted across panel sessions? In my case, I use Date (Descending).

This worked as expected in v16, but in v17 the sort order resets to Name if I close all tabs in a panel and then open a new Explorer panel. Please fix this so the selected sort column and direction remain persistent after all tabs are closed and the panel is reopened.

Update: I found the relevant setting under Explorer Panel Settings → Default Settings for New Tabs → Date/Time (Descending). After setting it, new tabs use the correct sort order.
Sorry for the confusion—please disregard my previous report. It's working as expected now. Thanks !
