Directory Opus 11.7.5 (Beta)

Directory Opus 11.7.5 (beta) is now available for all Opus 11 users.

This is a preliminary, beta release. Translations may not be fully up-to-date and some English text may appear in non-English versions.

32-bit version:    Universal    Deutsch
64-bit version:    Universal    Deutsch

Changes:

• Added the SETFOCUS argument to the Select command. Similar to MAKEVISIBLE but it also causes the viewer pane to show the first selected file automatically. Also, the MAKEVISIBLE and SETFOCUS arguments now ensure the first matching file is made visible even if it was already selected.
• Buttons that use @ifset etc. with a global variable now work correctly in a floating toolbar.
• Fixed failure to launch double-clicked symbolic links which ultimately resolved to volumes without a drive letter. (e.g. Symbolic link to junction to mount point to volume with no letter.)
• Changed behaviour of double-clicks on symbolic links, so the unresolved path is launched. This is consistent with Explorer and allows you to e.g. create symlink.txt pointing to original.csv and then open the same file as either plain text or CSV, depending on which you double-click. (Exception: Symbolic links to exe files are still resolved, otherwise they do not work at all.)
• Running the same user-defined command more than once in a single button did not work.
• Fixed crash if FSUtil.GetMetadata was called without assigning the result to anything.
• Fixed problem introduced in previous beta which could prevent the display being properly updated after some Toolbar command changes.

Directory Opus 11.7.4 (Beta)

Directory Opus 11.7.4 (beta) is now available for all Opus 11 users.

This is a preliminary, beta release. Translations may not be fully up-to-date and some English text may appear in non-English versions.

32-bit version:    Universal    Deutsch
64-bit version:    Universal    Deutsch

Changes:

• Scripting changes:
• Added the following additional notifications to the OnListerUIChange event: duallayout, metapanelayout, viewerlayout, toolbars, toolbarset, toolbarsauto, minmax
• Fixed a bug when using tags via script Metadata object (if the file in question came from a tab, retrieving the tags from the object would cause the file to lose its tags in the file list).
• Fixed commands with Set THUMBNAILSIZE not running any commands after that line.
• Fix for character encoding issue when saving MP3 ID3 tags in some locales.
• Greatly reduced delay when using the context menu to extract non-zip archives which contain thousands of folders.
• If the metadata panel fails to apply metadata changes because of a sharing violation, it now checks viewers to see if the file is currently being viewed, and closes it again before retrying.
• The Set LAYOUT=Remember command did not properly record the toolbars that were open.

Directory Opus 11.7.3 (Beta)

Directory Opus 11.7.3 (beta) is now available for all Opus 11 users.

This is a preliminary, beta release. Translations may not be fully up-to-date and some English text may appear in non-English versions.

• The breadcrumbs path control would show an incorrect path if you went directly from Desktop to C:\.
• The jobsbar_no_arrow advanced option now works properly.
• Select SOURCETODEST and DESTTOSOURCE now fail silently with no destination file display, instead of prompting for a folder.
• The @icon directive did not work correctly for icons from external files (e.g. DLLs or EXEs) if an icon index was specified.
