  • + Custom Toolbar Buttons: Now you can use XYplorer's own icon set for your custom buttons. All you need to know is the button key (must be lowercase BTW). The syntax is ":key".
    E.g. enter the following to the Icon-field to use the icon of the Recent Locations button for your button:
      :mru
  • + Script Icons: Same as above. Example for a user button context menu definition using internal XYplorer toolbar icons:
      "Recent Locations|:mru" button "mru"
      "Hotlist|:hotlist" button "hotlist"
    That way you can now easily pack all toolbar buttons into the ctx menu of a user button -- not a bad thing! See below for the button command...
  • + Scripting got a new command.
      Name:   button
      Action: Emulates a click on a toolbar button.
      Syntax: button key, [action=1]
        key:  [required] Key that identifies the button.
              You can retrieve the existing keys using the SC toolbar.
        action: [optional]
          0   = do nothing
          1   = left-click [default]
          2   = right-click
          8   = dropdown arrow
          256 = customize toolbar dialog, preselect button "key"
      Examples:
        ::button "mru";           //pops MRU menu at key
        ::button "minitree";      //toggles MiniTree
        ::button "minitree", 2;   //pops ctx menu of MiniTree button
        ::button "back", 8;       //pops dropdown menu of Back button
        ::button "minitree", 256; //open customize toolbar dialog at MT
      Usage:
        Note that using "button" you can trigger also buttons that are
        not part of the current toolbar!
        The command can become useful in the context menu definition of
        User Buttons. E.g., you can wrap a number of rarely used
        buttons into the ctx menu of a single button and thus save
        space on the toolbar.
