FreeCommander Forum

Wow Ralf thank you for that. I'm loving TreeItemHeight=6 more than I liked whatever it was before it increased to 18!

With today's "FreeCommander XE 2026 Build 949 64-bit non public" my tree pane's spacing changed from (what looked like) single to double spacing, which is highly inefficient. I guess this might just be a change I dislike instead of a bug.

Incidentally, I use an atypical 'File Explorer' config which ...

Bingo! Thank you!
When I swapped FreeCommander 'Modified' column that worked great! (Neither 'Date Modified' column worked in my Column Profile.)

Natural sorting (as Explorer)

It already is (if you mean Settings|View|File/folder list|Sorting|Sorting).

Is there a reason that my 'Date Modified' field won't sort?

My configuration is atypical.

Currently the option "File/folder operations -> External tool is used for drag&drop" is ignored for the tree nodes (you should activate the option for the next release).
Fixed for the next release.
A million thanks Marek!
Very generous of you since my use-case is I imagine quite uncommon.

I post this only to draw Marek's attention to my new reply in a month-old post (because I can't PM him) since did some testing and found that it's (at least) external file-handlers via drag-and-drop within the same pane that broke several weeks ago.

OK, I got exasperated with this situation, and un-/re-installed FC.

TeraCopy worked on the initial new install, when I copied a file between panes. But only after I changed this setting:
File/Folder operations|General|both Copy & Move enable Use external program

Then I did the rest of my ...

Now I find I need to add this to get TerraCopy to work (and even then, it now only works between panes, no longer within the same pane, as I'm about to post in Bugs):

Tools|Settings:
File/Folder operations|General|both Copy & Move enable Use external program

Ah, interesting, thank you. I use FC configured with one window, though.

Thank you very much for your reply, horst.epp!

I see if I start the drag-and-drop operation on the icon of a selected file, the situation improves a bit, in that the Windows dialog box appears. But still no TeraCopy.

So I am eager for this situation to be fixed.

But in the meantime (while I want ...

Not only does TeraCopy continue to not work for me with drag-and-drop on "FreeCommander XE 2025 Build 933 64-bit donor" (while TeraCopy still does work with my Win11 64-bit 24H2 File Manager)...

Now when I forget and do a drag-and-drop with FC, the Windows dialog box doesn't even appear (making it ...

Many thanks, Marek. It was working with 929...until today, and how TeraCopy drag-and-drop is again not working with FC. (TeraCopy drag-and-drop is still working with Win11 File Explorer though.)

Marek wrote: 07.04.2025, 22:11 Which operation? If Drag&Drop, then it is possible. I made in the last version some changes to Drag&Drop and forgot to exclude the changes for external operations.

Ooops, sorry, yes, it is Drag&Drop that TeraCopy isn't working with.

TeraCopy is no longer working with my "FreeCommander XE 2025 Build 928 64-bit donor". It still does work with my Win11 64-bit 24H2 File Manager.

I tried toggling off/on Register as Default Copy Handler in TeraCopy. I tried in FC settings "File/Folder Operations" setting Copy and Move to C:\Program ...
