Ac Browser Plus' Frequently Asked Questions & Ideas

 

Welcome to Ac Browser Plus' FAQI (...and Ideas). If you will not find your question here, please contact me  Contact the author.

You may also want to look at the ACB's forum - http://www.konradp.com/forum/, then choose the "Ac Browser Plus"  forum.

QI (Question\Idea) : I've lost my key....

A: Just send me your name, and I will send you the key once again. Contact the author.

QI: I purchased the program, and now what?

A: You will soon receive a registration key, which will enable ACB for you. Keep this key, because it's for ever, you'll never be charged for upgrades and new releases.

QI: I've found on your website, that I can convert images (e.g. from bmp to jpg), but I don't see anything like that in the menu...

A: You can simply rename a file. For example from "image.bmp" to "image.jpg", using F2. Or, you can use Image Quick Viewer, select an image, press F3, there you can find options like save as, convert, brightness & contrast etc..

QI: What the is Editorial Renaming? I fired it up, and now what?

A: I don't like reading manuals too...:) Thanks to this tool, you can much simpler change names of numerous of files, just like in the text editor. So, change the names in the Edit Box which appeared, and press Renamed to make those changes. (You can always Undo this operation by pressing Ctrl+Z).

QI: I don't want to use my credit card to purchase your software...

A: You can use wire transfer (Contact me to get  bank account information) or send me cash  via postal mail. More.

QI: An auto refresh feature on the folders lists when copying or moving files should be possible, instead of having to type Alt+R every time I made copies, etc. 

A: When copying or moving files is done from within the ACB, then the autorefresh is done. However, when some operation is done outside the ACB, then indeed, this feature would be great, and will be done.
v.2.3: done

QI: Why are some files and directories made bold?

A: Because they are in you favorites links and/or are the newest ones. Look at the options/general if you don't like it.

QI : After a file operation starting move the progress window to top (example during copy, move, del i have AcBrowser maximized, and progress window comes up UNDER it)

A: Actually, that was intentional. Why to bother the user ? If there is a problem (overwriting, not enough disk space etc..) then the operation window appears. But I will do that - as an option.

QI: There is no way to change colors/layout ACB is using ? I don't see it in options ?

A: It's because ACB generally uses various files to which define/change various ACB's areas. Regarding colors - you can change a skin by going to tools/options/select skin, look at the %Ac Browser Plus%/skins folder if you want to create your own. In the future I'll add a skin editor or something like that.
