Re: Font size

Nobody's answered you, so… The short answer is, "No."; the long answer is, "Yes, but you either need to be proficient writing/compiling code or use someone else's modified version of Explorer++." I've made an extensively modified version of Explorer++ which gives the user the abi...

Re: Enhanced Search Dialog

There are a few issues which made the existing Search Dialog sub-optimal for me. The final ones for me are the ability to manipulate the "found" file(s) (especially deleting them), operating on multiple selections and having keyboard shortcuts. Here's what I have now: Search Dialog 3.png A...

Re: Enhanced Search Dialog

I zipped up just the .C++ & .H files plus the contents of the Res folder (I've made a few changes to the images) and added the Release executable to play with. BE WARNED: this executable will drastically modify your current registry settings for Explorer++! Backup your Registry before experiment...

Re: Enhanced Search Dialog

For bulk renaming, I use PFrank, but it is no longer developed nor supported. I've not found any real bugs but there's at least one enhancement that I would like to see. I just grabbed RenPhoric and will give it a look.

I've added access to a new Option's item which gives the user control over how many items Explorer++ keeps track of for the drop down list:

Re: Enhanced Search Dialog

Janus, I've recently added a number of non-GUI enhancements to my Search Dialog's code. You may now Delete (permanently or to Trash Bin) or Rename one or more selected (contiguous or non-contiguous) items. Any user action which might change the current Search's results now automatically refreshes th...

Re: Regex Engine/Flavor?: Explorer++ 1.3.5

Looking more deeply… the regular expression code looks like: Expression, Flag where "Expression" is the string that you enter and "Flag" tells the regular expression parser some details about how to get the job done. In Explorer++ the user has no control over the "Flag"...

Re: Regex Engine/Flavor?: Explorer++ 1.3.5

I'm NOT one of this application's developers, but…I just examined the code because I have the same question. Here's what I found… The code always uses std::wregex which is a Unicode variant of std::basic_regex . Some documentation may be found here: http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/regex/basic_reg...

Enhanced filtering

I have made some modifications to the filtering dialog: filtering.png Behind the scenes, it eliminates duplicates from the history. The history can be cleared. It can now discriminate between files and folders (but shortcuts to folders are currently treated as files). I'm playing with automatically ...
