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.

the language in the ButtonPanel.xml are only matching against language texts in Multicommander_lang_<lang>.xml file.. not Explorer Panel,

thanks for quick reply, I wish something like <desc>#{ExplorerPanel:m,201}</desc> would be possible. Anyways, thanks for this great app.

Why do you need to use text from language files for your personal config file.  You can just write the text,
