Old Blue Workbench
Features:
- Enhanced menus similar to Workbench 2.0.
- Enhanced Workbench window and drawer windows with support for:
- Window menu and Icon menu as context menus.
- Lasso for selecting multiple icons.
- Default icons for showing all files and drawers.
- Arranging icons by name or type.
- Configurable backgrounds and fonts.
- Browser windows for browsing the file system.
- Enhanced Info windows with support for changing icons and swapping their colors.
- User defined menus.
- Docks with support for drag and drop of icons.
- Support for launching tools at startup.
- User defined global hot keys for window management and more.
Requirements:
- Minimum 1MB of memory.
- reqtools.library (version 38.390 for Kickstart 1.3 included).
- iffparse.library (version 37.1 for Kickstart 1.3 included).
- Default icons in ENVARC:Sys (included).
Version 1.1.0:
- Added support for setting the fonts and backgrounds (color, image or pattern)
used by Workbench, drawer and browser windows in the Appearance Settings window.
The font color is configurable and the font can be decorated with a color background,
a shadow or an outline.
- Added support for setting the font and background (color, image or pattern)
used by a dock in the Edit Dock window. The font color is configurable and the font
can be decorated with a color background, a shadow or an outline.
- Added optional gadget in the window title bar for minimizing the window to just the
window title bar. This can be configured in the General Settings window.
- Added optional support for moving a window to front by double clicking its title bar.
This can be configured in the General Settings window.
- Added support for configurable hot keys that can perform window management actions or
execute a command.
- Made Old Blue Workbench ignore hot keys when other applications take over the display
completely instead of using standard screens and windows.
- Moved the Use Default Tool Path setting to the General Settings window.
- Moved the Disk Icon Position setting to the Workbench tab in the Appearance Settings window.
- Fixed an issue where closing a drawer while it was loading icons would prevent the drawer
from being opened again.
- Fixed an issue where loading default icons would never complete on some file systems,
e.g. WinUAE’s virtual file system.
- Fixed multiple issues with the handling of info files (icons) with a not all lower case
.info suffix.
Version 1.0.1:
- Added a Use Default Tool Path setting in the Settings menu for setting how the
path in Default Tool for project icons is used when searching for the tool.
- Made the CLI created by LaunchDaemon when launching commands inherit the
search path when LaunchDaemon was started.
- Made LaunchDaemon use the search path when LaunchDaemon started as the search
path when launching tools with a relative path. This affects icons with a
default tool with a relative path.
- Fixed an issue where a drawer/browser window reloaded the icon position when
an icon was changed.
- Fixed an issue where a drawer/browser window reloaded the drawer size and
position when updating the window or changing between Show All Files and Show
Only Icons.
- Fixed an issue where the icon was not removed from a drawer/browser window
when a file that is only an .info file is deleted.
- Fixed an issue with context menus not showing when clicking the mouse’s menu
button in the area of a drawer/browser window with negative coordinates.
- Fixed an issue with Snapshot Window being disabled when a browser window was
showing disk icons.
- Fixed an issue with Close in the Window not being disabled for the Workbench
window.
- Fixed an issue where dropping a file or drawer icon did not copy the file or
drawer to the disk.
- Fixed an issue with executing commands failing when using standard CON: or
NEWCON: handlers.
- Fixed an issue with the disk icon being shown as part of the disk content if
the Disk.info file was not capitalized like that.
