Wanted to report this too, luckily I took time to browse through.

Hope this can be fixed soon.
I like my Explorer buttons as they are skinned by Y'z Toolbar already.

Started using this extension for its preview tooltips.
And I have some requests/suggestioms:

Speed of preview tooltip
I notice that the preview tooltip seem to take a longer time to appear on larger images.
Maybe there can be an option to adjust the thumbnail quality like TweakUI XP has for the Explorer thumbnail view?

Search Box
This search box is a really useful tool.
Is it possible to have an option to adjust the height as its a bit "tall" and it disturbs my slim toolbar layout.
Maybe an auto size function would be nice for those putting it at the end of the toolbar so it can resize when the window is being resized.

So far I feel quite ok for the other functions.
Thanks for making QT Tabbar, good job!!

SelectionChanged event & BandObjectLib: SelectionChanged event & BandObjectLib

Tue, 15 Jul 2008 10:56:45 +0000

I notice that there is a 'SelectionChanged' event raised by an IPluginServer implementation. I also noticed that QTTabBar makes use of BandObjectLib. I'm also using BandObjectLib but can't work out where a 'SelectionChanged' event is raised from (i.e. which object in the BandObject raises this event and what is it called).

Can any kind soul point me in the right direction?

any chance to implement this feature, I guess it should not be so difficult ?

Folder view not reserved for a specific case: Folder view not reserved for a specific case

Fri, 11 Jul 2008 16:28:17 +0000

Hi, first of all, thanks a lot for this great great great app. But one thing is bugging me…

I set the My Computer contents 'view' option as 'icon', the 'arrange icons' setting as 'by type' and checked the option 'show in groups'. Now, I deselected the QTTabBar option "Do not capture window as a new tab when opened from outside". But after that, when I choose My Computer from the start menu while one or more tabs are already open, the new tab contains the drive icons in icon view, but the other two settings are changed. This is happening every time I try to open My Computer. Is there a fix for reserving the My Computer view settings?

Thanks.

Bug reports: Encrypted file text color when highlight alternate rows in detail mode is incorrect

Thu, 10 Jul 2008 21:05:05 +0000

For a file that has Windows encryption, the text color is incorrect.

I'm in detail mode with highlight alternate rows and grid.

The text color is correct for the non-highlighted rows.

customizing address bar: Re: customizing address bar

Ah hah!

Click on the arrow button that is furthest to the left, right next to the folder icon. It will show a folder list, but at the very bottom there is an options link. There you can customize the font and some other details about the toolbar.

Enjoy!

Back button = history back?: Re: Back button = history back?

Wed, 09 Jul 2008 19:15:24 +0000

I actually came here to post about the same issue :o)

The way I have my explorer window set up I have the back button, forward button and up button on the left, then the address bar (or in my case, QTAddressBar right now) and then the search and history buttons from QTTabBar. I like the graphics from the native buttons, plus I can't place the "standard buttons" toolbar both to the left and right of the address bar to have my preferred set up.

I think this is a fix for now, but it sure would be nice if the regular back button worked :o)

This is really great, though! I started using QTTabBar about a week ago and I've been loving it. I have it running so that my folders remain persistent and in the same window, so that I have one link to access all my folders. Great job!

Back button = history back?: Re: Back button = history back?

Hey, so far I found a fix to this. Remove the original Windows Explorer Back Button and replace it will the blue style buttons. Right click -> Options -> customize -> remove original back button.
Right click -> Tick "QT Tab StandardButtons" -> customize QT Tab Standard Buttons and simply add the back button. Unlock the toolbars and drag the button where you wan it to go. So far the QT Tab Background button is working fine.

Thanks

x64 Vista - QT TabBar - option to start is greyed out: x64 Vista - QT TabBar - option to start is greyed out

Mon, 07 Jul 2008 11:50:36 +0000

Hello all,

I've had some WinInstall issues with my Vista x64 install but the only thing I can't get back and working is QT TabBar, and I miss it greatly!

When installed, I can't activate it, by right-clicking the Explorer menu-bar - the QT items appear greyed.

I've tried CC-cleaning and manually searching/deleting QT items in the reg, please, does anyone have any tips for cleaning this up and re-enabling it?

Cheers

Hi there!

First of all I'd like to thank you for your tool, it makes vista sh*t look a bit better to me.
I am really missing the "Properties" button in explorer, a thousand right-clicks drives me crazy sometimes!

A have failed to finв this button "Properties" in your app, is it possible to make it available? I consoder it would not be too hard to add.

I can make a Russian translation. Do you have a lang text file?

Thanks in advance,
Dmitry

QTTabBar install in WindowsXP SP3: Re: QTTabBar install in WindowsXP SP3

Sat, 05 Jul 2008 13:54:09 +0000

Yeah, .NET Framework 2.0 did the trick : I finally got QTTabBar back! I wish I'd thought about it though, I saw the framework thing on the homepage without really giving it much thought and this was like the first time I hadn't installed the frameworks after a format. My mistake! But I'm so glad I got it back now :D
