Workbench Explorer v1.2 Build 2650 released

Date 2017/5/23 9:19:09 | Topic: Software News

Download it from Aminet, OS4Depot, AmiUpdate, or most convenient and current: "Check latest version" from the Project menu.


******************************

PLEASE NOTE:

- Due to an error in the RinghioServer, WEx was causing an error message
in Preferences->Notifications and at reboot (for some people). In order
to fix this:
* Open Preferences->Notifications.
* Select and delete the Workbench Explorer entry.
* Save.
* Re-run Workbench Explorer.

- It seems a lot of people don't like how I was saving the prefs. And I
didn't notice that is was doing a lot of disk writing when moving/resizing
the window.
It is fine, I can adapt. So now when a setting is changed (sort order,
view style, etc) it is NOT saved. You must select 'Save preferences'
from the Project menu. There is also a new feature in Prefs->Operation
'Save preferences on exit' to make things a little easier.

###### [1.2 build 2650] - 2017-05-22
### Added
- 'Load preferences' and 'Save preferences' in Project menu.
- 'Save preferences on exit' in Preferences->Operation page.
- 'Open Shell window' (Amiga + W) to Tools menu.
This opens a default Shell window.
- 'Open Shell window here' to content context menu.
This opens a Shell window at the current path.
- Italian catalog. Thank you, Alessandro Bacchia.
- FLAC audio file support for tags and cover art. It does not have support
for Time, Bit rate, Mode, and Codec. Yet.
There is a slight delay from the datatype before it plays.
- Folder.jpg or Cover.jpg, if they exist in a MP3/FLAC album folder, will
be used instead of looking in the song file.
- Users changed notification system.
- More sanity checks for playing MP3s.

### Fixed
- Delay in moving and resizing of window.
- Deferred and nonbinding assigns are now skipped correctly.
- The cover art was not parsed correctly for some MP3s.
- Thumbnail image wasn't being refreshed for MP3s and FLACs, maybe others.
- Three menu images were not being disposed of properly.
- Error in paste count.

### Changed
- Download menu shortcut is now Amiga + O.
- RinghioServer description.
- RAM: now shows actual usage, not system amount.
The system Free and Total RAM is now displayed in the Details Pane
when at Computer, and the Computer preview.
