There are a few changes in the 12.1 release version from the last beta release:
- Fixed problem which could cause a delay in opening the properties dialog on ctrl-doubleclick
- Ctrl+A is now trapped in edit controls in the utility pane (other keys like Ctrl+C already were)
- Fixed problem which caused the return key to not get trapped in the rename dialog inline editor when macro mode was turned off
- FIX: If you convert an image in-place, the Replace dialog opens. Double-click the thumbnail and it opens the image. The viewer has that image in the list twice so you can click from it to itself.
- Rename script editor now opens with cursor at top rather than bottom of script
- Fixed issue with grouped listview in Rename Presets and Prefs / Labels, where expanding/contracting groups could leave the list with an unnecessary h-scroller
- Fixed bug where the jobs bar would open incorrectly in a new Lister if another Lister had the rename dialog (or any other dialog that blocks the progress bar) open.
- Fixed problem with Viewer script object (the "files" property didn't work, so it wasn't possible to get a list of files the viewer was currently looking at).
- Also added "Viewer.index" property to return the index of the current file
- Show VIEWERCMD=goto can now jump a relative number of images (e.g. Show VIEWERCMD=goto,+10 to jump forward 10 files)
- Fixed lister metadata panel not painting/resizing correctly when enlarged or maximized, due to change in 12.0.10.
- Fixed repaint issues when Rename script editor is toggled and visual styles are disabled.
- Fixed memory leak which would have shown up in various places, including filter labels that used the Type clause
- Using the Set SAVEFORMAT command to save a favorite format interactively didn't work
- The option in the Folder Options dialog to clear the saved format and reset to a favorite did not work properly
- The various element widths in the Rename dialog are now saved with DPI scaling information. Same for the dialog editor.
- Fixed rename dialog problem where a saved presets width that was too wide could result in other controls being pushed off the side
- Fixed problems with navlock tabs in tab groups not working when the group is loaded
- Improved Rename dialog resizing when scripts add/remove custom fields
Thanks to everyone who participated in the beta program. Remember, development doesn't stop just because Opus 12 has been released (in fact, development never stops!). Keep those bug reports and feature requests coming in.
