New beta release v10.5.9.1 - add multiple favorites and other improvements
Jean Lalonde > 2020-07-03 16:14
Welcome to this new beta phase. Thanks for testing.
The main new feature is "Add Multiple Favorites" (available under "Favorite" in the menu bar). It is a work in progress. In this release, multiple favorites can be added from a folder or from the list of folders and applications currently open (similar to the content of the "Current Windows" dynamic menu). Also, the context menu (when you right-click an item in the Favorites list) has been augmented, options has been added for Directory Opus and Total Commander users, and for Live folders.
Version BETA: 10.5.9.1 (2020-07-03)
Add Multiple Favorites
- add a new dialog box "Add Multiple Favorites" to add multiple items in one click from these various sources: folders, applications and folders current open (and in future releases: list of QAP features, list of Special folders, Frequent and Recent Folders and Files from the QAP database)
- add a filter in the dialog box "Add Multiple Favorites" to restrict the list of candidate items using text filter or, when the source is "Folder", wildcards * and ?

Various improvements
- add entries to the favorites list context menu to "Add", "Edit", "Remove", "Copy" or "Move" the selected favorite
- replace the old (an unfriendly) Windows "Select Folder" dialog box with a more workable dialog box (thanks to Flipeador) allowing to change folder with the QAP menu
- add an option in "Options, File Managers" section to set the default side (lister or pane) for new tabs in Directory Opus and Total Commander to "Left" (or top), "Right" (or botton) or "Active side"
- get localized name from desktop.ini (when available) to set the default "Short name for menu" when adding a folder or to set folders name in Live folders
- for favorites folders with "Live folder" option enabled, add the option "Refresh this Live Folder menu only with the command 'Refresh Live Folders'"
- allow "Live folder" option in favorite folders inside groups
Bug fixes to be released in v10.5.3
- support "Parameters" (in Advanced Settings") for "Link" favorites (for example for parameter -incognito with Chrome)
- new JLicons.dll file v1.6.1 fixing a missing icon for Live folders (postable users must update the JLicons.dll file in their QAP folder)
