Everything 1.5 Undocumented Changes Observed

Post by raccoon »

Alpha release notes don't necessarily include every bit of minuscule minutia that changed in that version.

This thread attempts to provide a place to document these observed changes, in a non-critical objective manner.

This is not a place for bug reports or sub-threading.

Recently, the hotkey_explorer_path_search behavior changed such that paths that do not contain space characters are no longer wrapped in quotes. Previously the path put into the search bar was always wrapped in quotes.

Current build is 1338a when this was first noticed.

I would love to hear any feedback here too.

If you don't like a change, please let me know.



I find the search much easier to manipulate without the double quotes.
Do I need add a ini setting to always add double quotes for consistency?

I don't have an opinion either way. The new behavior (quote omission unless needed in hotkey_explorer_path_search) seems more consistent Everything's behavior elsewhere, and is educational to the user by inference. So I guess I like it.
