7plus Version 2.4.0 released!
Long in the making but worth the wait. After about 10 months the next version of 7plus is finally ready. Many parts of it were rewritten once again to allow for more flexibility and less limitations. Many of these things will be noticeable in tiny details, such as these:
- Events now execute while the event editor window is open
- Slide windows now work much better and also support child windows
- Explorer status bar: Enhanced information is now displayed separately for every window, not just the active one.
- Improvements centered around Accessor, too many to name here
- Simplified hotkey configuration
Apart from this work under the surface there are also once more many new features such as these:
- Explorer replace dialog for filenames and file contents with many functions
- Improved screen capturing with editor dialog, screen area capturing and image hoster support (imgur.com) as well as the known FTP support
- A settings page that contains generic windows settings that remove annoyances from windows that would usually require registry modifications or other advanced methods.
- URL shortener (WIN+S)
- Automatically close windows update dialog to get rid of this annoying notification (disabled by default)
There are also many other smaller features and bugfixes which can't be listed here. For details, check out the changelog.
For manually downloading 7plus, check out the Downloads section. Autoupdates should download when you start 7plus. Please report any bugs, submit comments, etc. You know the procedure!
What a great news! I'll try it now on my all new formated PC :P ! Thanks a lot =)
Thanks! Unfortunately some bugs made it in this release, I'm currently working on a patch that should be out soon (waiting a few more days, maybe one or two weeks to see if further bug reports appear).
Yep, I found a few bugs: I m gonna report them tonight :) Actually, they randomly appear. So, maybe it's due to my computer :/
Wow i love this program, i just reinstalled my computer, blank slate. but this program crashes every chance it gets, when ive got the settings window open. will make it impossible to use. trying to turn everything im not using off, but it keeps crashing. hopefully this will get worked out. as 7plus is my new fav. your feature set as already replaced three programs i would normally use to do all this.
Sorry to hear that. Are you using the latest version 2.5.0? You posted on the news entry for 2.4.0. Aside from that, it's probably unlikely that this issue is directly caused by 7plus, more likely its due to a combination of 7plus and some other program. Can you check if disabling/exiting other programs helps with the crashes? This also includes security programs such as firewalls or virus scanners which sometimes integrate deeply in the operating system.
