Universal Viewer - Lister alternative

[Alextp]

Peter,
thx for note. You don't spoil my day.
Will be fixed.

Added support for VisualDirSize:
only in Pro version
I tested on VisualDirSize 1.2.

[petermad]

It seems to work fine with VisualDirSize 1.3beta6 ( http://members.lycos.co.uk/kajoj100/wlx_visualdirsize_1.3_b6.zip ) too.

But if I have the FlashView 1.4 ( http://www.stayathome.nm.ru/files/wlx_flashview_1.4.rar ) plugin installed I now get this error every time I change directory:

---------------------------
Universal Viewer
---------------------------
Exception in plugin FlashView.wlx in function ListLoad
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

I didn't know FlashView also supports folders...
How does it suppose to show folders in Flash? i'll see it.


Edit
FlashView now doesn't activate for folders.

I have the same problem sometimes.

Nice logo.

This is documented (in Versions history page): the global offline mode is used.
To not use offline mode, uncheck the "View -- Internet -- Offline".

Thank's Alexey for your response.

[Bug repport]

If I perform a search in a text file and thereafter change the view from Text to Binary, Hex or Unicode and then press F3 to continue the search I get this message:

---------------------------
Universal Viewer
---------------------------
Stream object not initialized (C:\ProgView\Source\ATStreamSearch.pas, line 431)
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

It does not happen if I change to (or from) RTF/UTF8 view.

Should be fixed now (not uploaded).

The option "Search from cursor" is planned:

What do you think:
1) UV doesn't have "text cursor" like Lister does.
What should I take as "cursor position": the position of the first visible line, maybe? But is it OK for backward search?

2) What is better: checkbox "backward search" or group box "Direction: Forward/Backward"?

[icfu]

1) I thought that you wanted to implement cursor? I don't understand your question I think.
2) The latter, and you should call it Up/Down and place the radio buttons vertically in logical order, Up above, Down below. The implementation in lister search dialog with checkbox is terrible, typical "ghisler style", with no sense for usability. Your dialog is a real beauty...

Here is a dialog example of HiEditor which I like very much:

1) The question is what to take as "cursor position" for "Scope: From cursor" option.

2) Up/Down?
"Up" may mean "up to the top" or "up to the maximal position" That may be confusing.

typical "ghisler style", with no sense for usability

Christian may be angry.

[icfu]

1) Is this only until you implement a text cursor? If there is no text cursor, why do you mention the word "cursor"? Maybe there is a misunderstanding, but I am not able to solve it now, it's noon and I am hungry.

2) The description text "Direction" should be clear enough. I have never asked myself what these checkboxes in HiEditor mean at least. No idea.

Christian may be angry.

He is a big boy, and he knows that I am right.
