Beta 7c
 License:   OpenTracker
 Updated:   January 3, 2005
 Source:   Source Will Be Available Later
Version Beta 7c is a bugfix release for people that encountered missing / failing add-ons or strange system behaviour with the last release. Updating is recommended.

This version is binary compatible with newer BeOS versions. This means you can install this same package on R5 and up (Dano for example).

Changes in Beta 7:

* Added a hotkey to the location field. You can abort a change or reset after filtering with escape now
* Automatic SVG-Icon support if you have the SVGTranslator installed
* As requested once, the FilePanel for relinking a broken symlink will open at it's previous target's parent folder if possible
* Thumbnails are now saved as zipped attributes. I decided to use zip mainly because of transparency issues with most stock translators
* If the creation of a thumbnail fails because the translator crashs and takes down the tracker with it, creation won't be attempted anymore
* Fixed locking issue that caused wrong sized icons to appear
* Hopefully fixed crashing bug when closing windows
* Theming support. The engine supports scalable and raster themes (SVG and PNG for example), see http://newfs.mlotz.ch/ for more info
* Fixed old bug with hanging Deskbar/DiskProbe when opening "Recent..." menus
* Fixed bug that no names were shown in Favorites config (also fixes Deskbar's "Configure Be Menu")
* The viewstate of the Desktop is now saved independantly. The iconsize set is now preserved across restarts
