  • Print FOLDER command has a new KEYWORDS switch which uses column keywords for headings instead of display names.

  • Commands/Buttons generated by the Rename dialog and placed in the clipboard can now be pasted after closing the dialog.

  • Script dialogs: Edit controls have a new cuetext property which lets you get or set their cue text at runtime. Also, empty edit controls now continue to show their cue text when they have focus, until something is typed.

  • Scripting: Fixed new dialog resources not having their base language set, which caused it to become "english" on a save and reload, if not set manually.

  • Video & Audio plugin no longer blocks audio metadata if it's above the AudioTags plugin. Also, movie metadata will now still work if all movie playback APIs are off.

  • USB Exports now always include English.dll as a fallback for missing strings in other languages (e.g. due to translations that are still in progress).

  • Possible fix for Rename dialog locking up after saving a preset

  • Added .heif as alternative extension for .heic files.

  • Mousewheel over the thumbnail size slider is now reversed, making it consistent with Ctrl + Mouse Wheel in the lister.

  • Edit controls for Evaluator column and group code now remember if you turn line numbers on.

  • Fixed not being able to close toolbars in the first window that opens after a clean install or config reset.

  • Workaround for desktop context menu adding items from other programs in the middle of Opus's layouts list, if Opus is configured to add the layouts list to the top-level menu. (Fix may require reboot after installing the update.)

  • Fixed scrolling pop-up menu bottom border with certain color configurations.

  • Fixed Filter Bar rendering with very large fonts.

  • Fixed flicker when suggestions pop-up tooltips closed over some editors with scrollbars.

  • Fixed "horizontal lines past the end of the file list" when grouping by a column.

  • Fixed focus rects being displayed in inactive file displays in some modes.

  • Fixed "Go TABCLOSE PATH=C:\" and similar resulting in a non-functional window if it closed all the tabs.

  • Fixed Document filter clause not roundtripping through "edit as text" mode.

  • Fixed problem with translations and accelerators before markup (e.g. German Set Lister Defaults dialog, if opened via a hotkey).

  • Folder sizes per-folder list no longer loses its configured sort order

  • Fixed Favorites Bar not updating if you dragged a folder to it while a sub-menu/branch was open on it.

  • Added image conversion presets to default toolbars under:

    • [Menu] Tools > Convert Images > Save As
    • [Images] Convert
  • Fix for Find panel Reset button drawing over the shrink and close buttons if the window is too narrow.

  • The Errors tab in the progress dialog now has a greyscale icon until it actually contains an error (and then the icon turns red)

  • Fixed categories in custom icon sets.
