great -- excellent discovery, then i should be able to fix in short order.
i wonder if people could check the win8 icons in that older one too, to tell me if maybe that problem is new too?

If anyone has ideas about why win8 is borked on these things, let me know -- otherwise i guess i'm going to have to break on the virtual machine and start experimenting.

It sounds like you have a feature enabled that "shows the location of cursor" when you hit Ctrl key alone.  It may be configurable in your mouse settings somewhere.  Anyone know where this setting is?
Try using Ctrl+MouseLeftClick (while cursor is inside the red box) to trigger the capture.

New beta:
Version 2.221.01 - Apr 22, 2015
  • [Feature] A new "Quick Search Words" tab in options allows you to specify quick search word replacements; here you can quickly specify words that have alternate meanings when typed into the search box.  Start each line with a search word, followed by = and then the replacement text.  For example, if you would like to be able to type "ff" to search for "firefox" you can specify that here as "ff = firefox".  This just makes it much easier to do certain simple things without using aliases.  Note that replacements will only be made on word boundaries ("ff" will not match "eff").
  • [Feature] On History Options you can now choose to have FARR automatically add all applications that you launch outside of FARR (that have foreground windows), automatically added to FARR launch history; this makes them visible in main window on display, and makes them faster to find.
  • [Feature] New option to require search words to match on left hand boundaries of words (whether contiguous enabled or not) -- can be useful in reducing spurious matches.
  • [Feature] Added field where you can test how FARR will resolve a path with environment or other special % replacements, on Tweaks and Debugging tab.
  • [Change] If only one result is being shown in directory browsing mode, FARR won't autoswitch into small report display mode; this is nicer to look at when using an absolute path to a file and makes clearer when there is a unique result in directory browsing mode, and makes it more convenient to use the Quick Search Words to specify an explicit file path.
  • [Bugfix] Non-contiguous scoring had a bug which might allow some results to list which should not (though it would give them a very low score).
  • [Bugfix] Using spacebar to toggle checkboxes in the hotkey, searchfolder, pattern lists was not saving changes.
  • [Bugfix] Launched *folders* were no longer opening on Windows XP.
  • [Bugfix] Using Ctrl+# or Ctrl+Enter to launch apps should keep FARR window open AND focused, regardless of FARR window behavior configured on Window options tab.

Related question: is there any way to give FARR a path and see how it gets resolved?

added, will be in next beta.

That was an amazing 'temperature' rise from yesterday to today


I sent out a final call for donations to our newsletter mailing list and list of past donors.. And the response has been wonderful  :-* :-* :-*
It would be wonderful if we somehow managed to surpass the amount raised during the 2011 fundraiser ($14,239) ! Time to pull out all the stops!!

Thank you jrmelb  :Thmbsup: :-*

We just past the $13k mark  :huh:  This is really wonderful, and fills me with renewed enthusiasm for the site.  I could not be happier.   :) :) :) :) :)
We've raised enough money to pay for hosting costs for the next 3 years -- looks like we can all settle in for a while and get comfortable.

Hmm, sounds like on a tiny screen you are going to have to do some tweaks on the Font Overides tab:
Screenshot - 4_21_2015 , 2_08_32 PM.png

I'll look into some of the scaling options and see if there is something better I can do.



But to confirm -- is this something new or something that has always been the case for FARR running on super hi-res screens?

I should say, I run FARR (and my other apps) on a 2560x1440 screen, and I think it looks perfect at that high resolution.

Hmm.. can you elaborate? Do you mean that with scaling turned on the new beta looks different than previous releases? Or are you just making a general comment about the effect of scaling on FARR which is true for old versions of FARR too.
Can you show me a screenshot?

I played your entry, Deo, and I enjoyed it! I even beat it.  The damn robots scared the hell out of me.  I think you did a great job with the theme.  :up:
And thanks for sharing the experience with the rest of us.

Hi Rick -- it you 6 years to make your first post -- hopefully it won't take you so long to make the next.

Grorgy!!! Great to see you  :up: :up: :up:
Regarding your Australian suit of armour comment  :lol:
Everyone getting off the plane flying into australia should be given a giant book of poisonous creatures to beware, one suit of armour, and some kangaroo repellant, since the suit of armour isn't going to help you with a mad kangaroo.

Keep the donations coming! It would be amazing if we could break our old record of 670(?) donors during our 2011 fundraiser -- we're at 614 now.
