@Big_Boss said in hang when using the Test function with 7z archives: I seem to have found a bug :o I’ve tested with several different files, and PowerArchiver always hangs indefinitely when the Test function is used with a 7zip type archive (at least files created with this version of PowerArchiver, I did not have files created with other software to test with). It just does not work, and the process needs to be manually terminated. With other types of archive like zip the Test function does work properly, the problem is only with 7z files. Windows 8.1 64-bit, latest PowerArchiver version in x64 Thanks for the report, @Mili will write it up

@TheAndyMac said in Details List not displaying properly on Hi-DPI display: The Details list of an archive is not displaying correctly on my Hi-DPI display (version 18.00.57). The others (including List and Small Icon) are working fine. The line spacing on the Details list is too small. What is the dpi setting there? Thanks.

@Big_Boss said in Shell extension: option to move the Compress With Options into the submenu: I think this was possible earlier: I’m sure it was too and like you I’d like to see it return.

@James-Simms we are working on separate tool for SFX, that enables our new format and all the features associated with it (superior compression, security). It is going to take a bit more but it is being worked on. Thanks!

No, not for the behavior, I’d like to realize. Open from start menu in explorer mode Open in archive mode, when an archive is double clicked

@luxor said in Slow drawing of main window.: @spwolf said in Slow drawing of main window.: I will check if we can improve this. I dont think it was any different in previous builds. In previous builds I’ve never seen the scroll bar out of position like it is in this build. If it did occur it was obviously too fast for my old eyes to pick up on it. might depend on number of files in the folder, but i went back to .37 and if folders bar + skins + hdd browse is on, scroll bar of the folders bar will be seen changing size at startup. I wrote it in… thanks!

The Malaware program I decided to test is vacating my pc as I type

Thanks very much @lbren We have noted all of your suggestions and have logged them in for the dev team to see once they start working on it.

Hi spwolf, I would be really grateful for this feature as would these chaps https://forums.powerarchiver.com/topic/362/mouse-back-forward-buttons-don-t-work from 2005. Hope you are having a great weekend, Blue skies yet again in London. Cheers DrT

@drteeth said in PA 18.00.53 tab opening: Hi spwolf, No worries about the late reply. As for your problem with many tabs, just have a “close all” option. What about my request to be able to use a mouse’s forward and back buttins to navigate the archive? I always press my back button first by instinct and only then realise that I have to use the cursor and my left mouse button. I look forward to the tab enhancements. Cheers DrTeeth opened up a new thread about that: https://forums.powerarchiver.com/topic/5984/move-back-and-forth-via-prev-next-buttons-in-archive-folders

@bigmike said in Tabs, empty windows and extra closing.: @spwolf said in Tabs, empty windows and extra closing.: But good idea about something there if user is not using/browsing hdd? Maybe MRU archives? Or output from favorite archives window? @Alpha-Testers - i know @Brian-Gregory is using classic with folders, maybe he can give some input? How will this work with your proposal here? 1st tab on opening with no arguments: Files and folders/folder pane shows “My PC” 1st tab on opening with archive: Archive content/folder pane shows archive folder structure opening an archive will open a new tab, folder pane shows archive folder structure opening a new tab by (+) will show MRU list/Favorites? On the first guess, I would vote for “Favorites” to fill the empty pane Probably, that will make it pretty confusing for the standard user… But the pane should never be empty. That is confusing, too. Maybe restricting browsing “My PC” to explorer mode and using folder pane in archive mode consequently for Favorites/MRU and for archive folder structures, in case an archive is open, is smarter. both folder panel and browsing hdd in archive mode are optional features, default is that there is no folder panel and there is no hdd browsing in archive mode. So i dont think it will be too crazy for pro users… and it is useful for sure.

@bigmike said in auto open first level in folder treeview when archive is opened: By the way, would it be possible to expand the first level of the folder tree in an archive by default (if there is a folder structure)? At the moment, after opening an archive, only the root node is shown. yes, certainly… thanks for the suggestion, wrote it in.

This sounds really good

@brian-gregory said in Alt+Enter in Modern Toolbar?: What is ALT-Enter supposed to do? It always used to be full screen toggle in the old days which is now F11. properties window… before it did not work in modern, also shortcuts were quite random.
