## Changes since 12.20.3:

- The **FileType NEW** command can now create directories by specifying **directory** as the file type to create. This lets you create multiple directories at once (e.g. **FileType NEW=directory NEWCOUNT=10** ).  
&nbsp;
- The **FileType NEWNAME** argument can now be used to specify a separate name that's used when the original name clashes, and to control where the incremental number is inserted. For example, **FileType NEW=.txt NEWNAME="Text:Text Num %c"** would use _"Text"_ for the initial name, and then try _"Text Num 1"_, _"Text Num 2"_ etc. You can use **%Nc** to zero-pad the number to _N_ digits (e.g. **%3c** to zero pad to three digits). The default behavior if a separate name isn't specified is still to append the&nbsp;incremental number in brackets.  
&nbsp;
- The option to specify a single image (via name or wildcard) for folder thumbnails can now be used to allow up to 4 images per folder thumbnail that match the wildcard.  
&nbsp;
- When dragging attachments from Outlook to an Opus Lister, Opus now detects the special 1/1/4501 timestamp that Outlook uses for some reason, and substitutes the current date and time instead.  
&nbsp;
- If you turn on the Lister's _Copy_ or _Delete_ filter and then run a command which explicitly specifies a filter, the command will now use the filter it specifies without prompting. (Normal commands which don't specify a filter will still prompt you to choose or define one.)  
&nbsp;
- If a copy/move operation uses a custom queue name this is now shown in the title bar of the progress dialog as described in the manual.  
&nbsp;
- Fixed issue introduced in previous beta where folder tree branches would only fully populate when manually expanded.  
&nbsp;
- Fixed issue&nbsp;introduced in previous beta which caused drive roots to be highlighted when viewing This PC with a filter that highlights recently modified folders.
