TWinKey

[sgp]

Did you created TC coloring rule? In other words - check autostart of TWinKey.

I did. And TWinKey worked a few times but then it stopped working. Using process explorer I can also confirm that the twinkey.wdx is loaded.

colorize the current tab,

See my previous post.

OK, good, thank you.

I don't know what you did between v2.0.0.77 and v2.0.0.101, but I went from having a useless experience with TWinKey (see my problems with TwinkUtil.exe on page two of this thread) to having a great experience.

TwinkUtil.exe now works on my machine.

Awesome job fixing the bug even though I was worse than useless in helping you find it!

Hello Vadim

something new with a new release?

The new version (TWinKey 3.39) is available.
New features:
- Added ability to select drive in combobox on any language.
- TCDirMenu. Added $clip() function.
- Added rectangular selection.
- Added changing column width in Brief view.
- Added "Show Last" option for file groups.
- Added option for warning on closing TC when Lister windows still open.

Fantastic! TY Vadim.
The previous version loaded successfully less then 10% of the times on my PC. So far this version has loaded perfectly 100% of the times.
I like the new rectangular selection.

Drivelist pops up with a 30 seconds delay in 3.39.
In 2.101 it appears immediately.

It pops up immediately here.

1. What OS version?
2. Is there any correlation between delay and network drives presence or CD/DVD presence?

2. No network drives at all. And CD presence does not change the delay.
Can Alcohol 120% be the cause? I have 4 virtual DVD drives. Could try disabling all of them...

Damn! I also observed this delay on my Win7 x64 machine, but somehow it doesn't occurred anymore. I tried to debug it but after several reboots this delay disappeared for no apparent reason.

Can Alcohol 120% be the cause?

I don't think so. But it worth to try.

I'd like to send you new TWinKey version to test delay fix.
Please, contact me by e-mail.

I've actually realized that nearly all of my TC crashes have been TwinKey related.

Testing the most recent version, no crashes as of yet ... :)

"BUG" resolved by removing the Twinkey global background reset to green.

Though there is a visual issue ( bug / problem ) ?

When I enable Total Commander's Background2, Twinkey turns it into black.

My normal background1 (RGB): 00,34,00
My normal background2 (RGB): 00,33,00

When TwinKey is enabled, background2 displays as (RGB): 00, 14,00

(Decimal values)

Hopefully, that test fix will work as I suffered the same delay problem when I tried the latest version as well, but unlike you, it didn't go away after a few reboots so I had to revert back to the older version.

I hope you reload TWinKey after changing TC background.
TWinKey cannot handle changing TC settings "on the fly".

Does it happens in every folder or in folders with defined "visual modes" only?
Anyway I'd like to see your TWinKey.ini file.

2Innuendo
The fix seems Ok. If you want to check it on your computer drop me a mail.

[Balderstrom]

Sent a copy of my TWinkey.ini, and the color issue is caused when twinkey is enabled. Either on TC startup or if TwinKey is not auto-start, then right after enabling TwinKey.

The odd alternate line color disappears if I don't use TC's Background2, then everything is a solid green (as usual).

I do have a TwinKey background changer set for every folder: detailed that a bit more in mail.

Thanks.
