Is WSW still working OK?  Mine can't download any station info.

-RichTWebGuy (December 17, 2014, 11:08 AM)

Is it with individual station's? If so...
Which station's are you trying if it is certain stations? I did notice where some station's doesn't have the correct data if any data at all for them.

As its still working for my stations which includes...

KTRI  BRISTOL / JOHNSON / KINGSPORT, TRI-CITY REGIONAL AIRPORT, TN
KCRP  CORPUS CHRISTI, CORPUS CHRISTI INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, TX
KCMI UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS - WILLARD, IL
KBKF  BUCKLEY AIR FORCE BASE AIRPORT, CO

If other then what do I need to look at...

XYplorer has paper folders as of v14.30.0100 and later -> Xyplorer 14.30 notes...

From the link I gave...

"Paper Folders can be used just like normal folders in virtually all contexts in XYplorer: You can bookmark them, search them, filter them, branch view them, tag their items, generate reports on them, copy their stuff, paste stuff into them, drag stuff into them, color their contents, customize their icons, cache their thumbnails, show custom columns for them, save their folder view settings, etc."

Can PEW handle selection of many files?

-fenixproductions (November 26, 2014, 04:24 AM)

Not at this time as it can only handle one.

Is it possible to start launcher with text file parameter?

I mean: such text file would contain the list of files I would like to open and PEW could do one of these steps:
1. for each file start associated application
2. start application associated with all files extensions and:
- pass list of files to it
- pass all files as parameters
3. just pass the list over.

It would be nice if I could use PEW together with Total Commander. Since TC can generate temporary file with list of all things selected (%L parameter) I could help if PEW was able to handle it.

-fenixproductions (November 21, 2014, 02:13 PM)

Not sure on that request and is why I haven't replied before now as I want to think it would be a little confusing but unsure at this time...

A new beta has just been posted @ carrolld.dcmembers.com/pew/ with a few bug fixes, other behind the scene enhancements, and a few skins removed and some added for the DropZone.
Just remember...you will need to get the file with beta in it's name else you are getting the latest non beta version.

0.11.6 is better at selecting within the entries, even after editing. 

-cranioscopical (November 06, 2014, 05:43 PM)

Hopefully no more arises as I have did about everything I can think of to nip the quirky keyboard navigation in the bud...

skwire suggested a hot key to call up the interface. FWIW, I'd prefer a small drop target to do this. I could make that happen using AHK but it'd be nice to have it built in.

-cranioscopical (November 06, 2014, 05:43 PM)

I've got several ideas for it just not enough time other than bug fixing atm to work on it.

0.11.6 build 2014 is uploaded. See top post for download link.

Fixes

• More attempted fixes to get the keyboard navigation working right in the list after it loses focus and then later regains it.

Changes

• Added drag and drop of files to the add/edit dialog entry textbox.
• Drag and drop to entry textbox attempts to pull the real path to the file from shortcuts.  Doesn't add the text if it can't pull it from it.

As always everyone who tests the latest version for me their help will be much appreciated...

Be nice if

• there were a drop target
• it were possible to drag-drop shortcuts

-cranioscopical (November 06, 2014, 09:35 AM)

For the add/edit entry textbox?  If so I have got it in the version I am working on and also for shortcuts yet some shortcuts for me doesn't seem to work...

0.11.5 build 2014 is uploaded. See top post for download link.

Fixes

• Possibly fixed the quirky keyboard navigation of the list after the list loses focus and then gets focused again.

I think a tool like this begs for a hide/show hotkey and the ability to run from the tray.  That is, the typical close-to-tray or minimise-to-tray options.

0.11.4 build 2014 is uploaded. See top post for download link.

Issues

• Still the quirky keyboard navigation.

Changes

• Added text drag and drop with the option to toggle the showing of the dialog in Preferences then Other Interface.
• Use Shift + Click&Drag entries over any other entry in another group to move them to that group. Doesn't matter which entry as it sorts it. (Known Issue: Scrollbar doesn't scroll to get to hidden entries.)

Fixes

• Clicking links in the about dialog should be fixed. I couldn't get it to reproduce after I applied a fix...

Your help in testing the latest version for me will be much appreciated...

Add URLs by drag-n-drop?

-cranioscopical (October 31, 2014, 09:53 PM)

Just started playing with this...

I second the drag-n-drop suggestion.

Suggestion: If a URL is detected on the clipboard, pre-populate the 'Entry' field when adding a new entry.  You could make it even more efficient by adding a "Add URL from clipboard" option that wouldn't even display the 'Adding a New Entry' dialogue.  It would simply add the URL to which group is selected at the time.  Just a thought.

-skwire (October 31, 2014, 10:10 PM)

Toggle of the display of the add dialog for the new text drag and drop operations implemented and it uses/defaults to whichever group of the entry you are hovering over.  It will not work if you hover over the group row must be an actual entry.  Also, latest version has *not* been uploaded yet...Now to see if I can figure out how to fix the quirky keyboard navigation...This is just an update on status.

Further observations and thoughts:

• After adding or editing an entry, keyboard navigation of the listview no longer works.  You can shift-tab to give focus/control back to the listview but then the highlighted item is no longer the item with focus.  Just shift-tab and press 'Up'...you'll see what I mean.
• Drag-n-drop in the listview to move entries from group to group would be a nice-to-have.
• All the clickable URLs in the 'About' dialogue error out with an "Illegal characters in path" message box.

-skwire (November 01, 2014, 10:25 AM)

1. Close to fixed...
2. Now possible when I upload the new version soon with shift + click then drag over one the entries in the list it will put it in the group of the entry below cursor.
3. Should be fixed.

Yeah I am still fiddling with drag and drop some so maybe for a text drag and drop.  You can drag and drop text files to the list at the moment (import/create new list option pops up). One entry per line don't know if you figured that out or not.  You can also drag the xml files it creates to the list as well to open.
