17.0.0.3 Dec 06, 2023
*Added: The Images method supports the Microsoft ImageList ( mscomctl.ocx, MSComctlLib.ImageList type) object directly. Shortly, you can define the control's images by calling Images(ImageList1.Object). The ImageList1.Object returns the object of MSComctlLib.ImageList type. The Microsoft ImageList object is available for /COM on x86 and x64 machines (starting from Access 2016)
*Added: FilterBarVisibleEnum.exFilterBarTop (0x2000) flag aligns the control's filter-bar to the top of the control. The filter-bar is displayed right-below the control's header-bar. By default, the control's filter-bar is aligned to the bottom  (FilterBarPromptVisible property)

16.0.0.1 Jan 24, 2022
*NEW:   Ability to executes x-script code ( including events ), from a string, file or a safe array of bytes. This feature allows you to load the control's visual appearance and behavior, without having to write any line of code. The x-script code can save EBNs, icons, pictures into BASE64 encoded strings, and so everything can be put into a single file, that should be invoked by AttachTemplate method. This feature allows you to run any x-script code for any configuration of the component (/COM, /NET or /WPF). 
*Added: AttachTemplate method executes the giving x-script code, and attach events if found. The x-script code can contain handle keyword that defines a handler for the specified event. For instance, the AttachTemplate("handle Click() { print(Version) }") sends the control's Version property to the debugger for display. All you need is to open the DebugView tool, and click the control.
*Added: The control's Template page supports AttachTemplate so you can assign x-script code ( including events )  in design mode, and so the control's visual appearance and behavior is changed once the control is created at runtime (/COM version only). 
*Added: Expands or collapses the entire selection if the user clicks any +/- glitch, presses Left/Right/+ or- key inside the selection, while the CTRL is pressed. This option is valid, while the control's SingleSel property is False.

*Fixed: Sometimes, can't select by drag items if the ColumnAutoResize property is False

15.1.0.3 Nov 17, 2021
*Added: The Background(exColumnsPositionSign) specifies the visual appearance for the position sign between columns, when the user changes the position of the column by drag and drop. By default, the Background(exColumnsPositionSign) property is 0, which indicates that the default position sign is shown when the user change the column's position by drag and drop.
*Added: Shows the hand cursor when the cursor hovers the open-filter button of the column's header or close button of the control's filter bar
*Fixed: The drop down filter panel is closed as soon as it shows up, if it is displayed over the current cursor location

*Fixed: The user can't use the column's filter button being shown in the control's columns floating bar ( ColumnsFloatBarVisible property )

15.1.0.2 Oct 27, 2021
*NEW:   FilterBarCaption property supports expressions, and UI  Column's Filter
*Added: The FilterBarCaption property supports expressions, so its evaluated value defines the HTML caption to be displayed on the control's filter bar. By default, the FilterBarCaption property is empty, so the control's automatically computes the filter bar's label based on the filter of each column. If no filter is selected, no filter label is generated. The FilterBarCaption property supports the following predefined keywords: value or current ( defines the control's current filter label, as it is displayed ), itemcount keyword returns the number of all items within the control, visibleitemcount keyword indicates the number of visible items within the control ( negative value indicates that the control has a filter applied, equivalent with the Items.VisibleItemCount property ), matchitemcount keyword indicates the number of items that currently matches the control's filter ( negative value indicates that the control has a filter applied, equivalent with the Items.MatchItemCount property ), promptpattern keyword specifies the currently pattern for the filter's prompt ( this is eligible, if the FilterBarPromptVisible property includes the exFilterBarPromptVisible flag ), available keyword returns a list of columns that are currently not filtered, but available to be filtered for ( Column.DisplayFilterButton property on True ) as a HTML string, allui keyword returns a HTML caption that includes all columns with Column.DisplayFilterButton property on True, including the value for each column's filter if it is filtered, all keyword returns a HTML caption that includes all columns including the value for each column's filter if it is filtered. For instance, FilterBarCaption = "`<r>` + value" aligns the filter bar's label to the right, the "value replace `[` with `<fgcolor=808080>[` replace `]` with `]</fgcolor>`" shows the column's name with a different color, "`<b><r>` + value + `</b><fgcolor=808080>` + ( matchitemcount < 0 ? ( ( len(value) ? `<br>` : `` ) + `<r>` + abs(matchitemcount + 1) + ` result(s)` ) : ``)" displays the number of results in the control's filter bar and so on.
*Added: Ability to clear / select new filter value from the column's filter panel, if the user clicks the column's caption of the control's filter bar. The value, current, available, allui or all keyword of the FilterBarCaption property returns a HTML caption that includes the column's caption between [<b> and </b>] if the column is currently filtered ( shows as bold between brackets ), between <fgcolor=C0C0C0>[<s> and </s>]<fgcolor> if the column is not currently filtered ( shows in strikeout as gray between brackets ). The all, allui and available keywords uses the <fgcolor> </fgcolor> sequence (uncolored space) to separate the parts on the control's filter description. You can use predefined functions like replace to change the appearance of the column in the control's filter bar. For instance, "all replace `<s>` with `` replace `</s>` with ``" removes the strikeout effect for available and not-filtered columns, "allui replace `[<b>` with `<bgcolor=000000><fgcolor=FFFFFF><b> ` replace `</b>]` with ` </b></fgcolor></bgcolor>`" shows the filtered columns on white on a black background, "value + `<r>` + available replace `<fgcolor=C0C0C0>` with `<fgcolor=FF0000>`" shows the currently filter on the left, while the available filter on the right in red, 
*Added: The Items.MatchItemCount property retrieves the number of items that match the filter. If negative it indicates that a filter is applied, and its absolute value minus 1 specifies the count of items that match the filter criteria. If zero, no items are loaded into the control, and so no filter is applied. If positive, it indicates the total number of items within the control equivalent with the Items.ItemCount property. 
*Added: Items.VisibleItemCount property returns negative value, if the control has a filter applied. The negative value represents a formula of -( count + 1 ), where count indicates the number of matching items. For instance, if the Items.VisibleItemCount property returns -1, the count of matching items is 0, if -2, 1 matching item, if -3, 2 matching items, and so on.

15.1.0.1 Aug 30, 2021
*NEW:   Filter-Prompt-Bar Support
*Added: The FilterBarPromptVisible property of FilterBarVisibleEnum type, specifies how the control's filter bar is displayed and behave. Previously, the FilterBarPromptVisible property was of Boolean type. By default, FilterBarPromptVisible property is exFilterBarHidden, so no filter bar is shown. Even so, the control's filter bar is shown as before, as soon as the user selects a value from the control's filter list, so a filter is applied. The FilterBarVisibleEnum type includes several flags that can be combined together, as described bellow.
*Added: The exFilterBarPromptVisible, exFilterBarVisible, exFilterBarCaptionVisible flag of FilterBarVisibleEnum type, forces the control's filter-prompt, filter bar or filter bar description ( even empty ) to be shown.
*Added: The exFilterBarSingleLine flag of FilterBarVisibleEnum type, specifies that the filter bar's caption is shown on a single line, so <br> HTML tag or \r\n are not handled. By default, the control's filter description applies word wrapping. Can be combined to exFilterBarCompact to display a single-line filter bar. 
*Added: The exFilterBarToggle flag of FilterBarVisibleEnum type, specifies that the user can close the control's filter bar ( removes the control's filter ) by clicking the close button of the filter bar or by pressing the CTRL + F, while the control's filter bar is visible. If no filter bar is displayed, the user can display the control's filter bar by pressing the CTRL + F key. While the control's filter bar is visible the user can navigate though the list or control's filter bar using the ALT + Up/Down keys.
*Added: The exFilterBarShowCloseIfRequired flag of FilterBarVisibleEnum type, indicates that the close button of the control's filter bar is displayed only if the control has any currently filter applied. The Background(exFooterFilterBarButton) property on -1 hides permanently the close button of the control's filter bar. 
*Added: The exFilterBarShowCloseOnRight flag of FilterBarVisibleEnum type, specifies that the close button of the control's filter bar should be displayed on the right side. If the control's RightToLeft property is True, the close button of the control's filter bar would be automatically displayed on the left side.
*Added: The exFilterBarCompact flag of FilterBarVisibleEnum type, compacts the control's filter bar, so the filter-prompt will be displayed to the left, while the control's filter bar caption will be displayed to the right. This flag has effect only if combined with the exFilterBarPromptVisible. This flag can be combined with the exFilterBarSingleLine flag, so all filter bar will be displayed compact and on a single line.

*Fixed: The drop down filter panel is closed as soon as it shows up, if it is displayed over the current cursor location

15.0.0.2 Feb 10, 2021
*Added: Select method selects a folder, giving its displaying name, relative or absolute path. For instance, Select("*") selects all items within the control, while the Select("") unselects all items. The SingleSel property should be on False, to allow multiple items to be selected
*Added: The BrowseFolderPath property is changed after ExploreFromHere call, only if the path does not derive from it
*Fixed: The application may hang up once the Layout property is called several times.
*Fixed: The IncludeParentLabel property is applied only after a change occurs.

15.0.0.1 Dec 16, 2020
*NEW: Customization of the control's context menu using expressions
*NEW: Ability to display the shell context menu for control's selection
*Added: The ShowContextMenu property supports expressions, so it can be called anytime, to provide the control's context menu. Previously, the ShowContextMenu property can be called only during the StateChange(ShowContextMenu) event. In other words, if the ShowContextMenu's content is recognized as a valid expression, it is evaluated and its result indicates the tostring representation of the context menu to be displayed, else the property's content defines the tostring representation of the context menu to be displayed. By default, the ShowContextMenu property is empty, which indicates that the default shell menu is being displayed. You can use the ShowContextMenu property to provide a different context menu, for files/folders part of the control, as well for empty/background ( non files/folders ) part of the control. The ShowContextMenu property supports the following keywords: the menu keyword returns a string expression that defines the shell context menu's tostring representation, the filecount keywords returns a numeric expression that specifies the number of items/files/folders selected in the control, the fileattr keyword returns a numeric expression that specifies the attributes of the single-selected item in the control ( the keyword's value is valid while the filecount property is 1), the filename keyword returns a string expression that specifies the name of the single-selected item in the control ( the keyword's value is valid while the filecount property is 1), the fileparsename keyword returns a string expression that specifies the parsed name of the single-selected item in the control ( the keyword's value is valid while the filecount property is 1), the filefullname keyword returns a string expression that specifies the full name of the single-selected item in the control ( the keyword's value is valid while the filecount property is 1). The control fire the StateChange(ExecuteContextMenu) event as soon as user selects a new item from the control's context menu. The ExecuteContextMenu property can be used to retrieve / set the identifier of the command to be executed. In other words, you can respond to your own commands, or you can cancel or forwards the current command. For instance, the ShowContextMenu = "``" generates an empty context menu, so actually no context menu will be displayed anytime. For instance, the ShowContextMenu = "Popup(Item 1[id=100],Item 2[id=101],Item 3[id=103]),[sep],Exit[def][id=1000]" defines a popup, a separator and a default item. This context menu will be shown any time, no mater if none, one or more files are selected. For instance, ShowContextMenu = "filecount = 0 ? `Popup(Item 1[id=100],Item 2[id=101],Item 3[id=103]),[sep],Exit[def][id=1000]` : menu" defines a separated context menu when no file/folder is selected ( control's background context menu ). The default context menu is shown if the user right-clicks a file, folder or the selection. For instance, the ShowContextMenu = "`Popup(Item 1[id=100],Item 2[id=101],Item 3[id=103]),` + menu + `,Exit[id=1000]`" combines the default selection context menu, so Popup is displayed at the top of the context menu, and the Exit item at the bottom. The Popup and Exit are always displayed, while the control's selection default context menu are shown only if available. For instance, the ShowContextMenu = "menu replace `&Delete` with ``" removes the Delete command from any context menu. For instance, the ShowContextMenu = "menu replace `Delete` with `Delete[dis]`" disables the Delete command from any context menu. For instance, the ShowContextMenu = "filecount > 1 ? `multiple selection[dis]` : menu" displays "multiple selection" when the user invokes the context menu for multiple-items selection, else it displays the default context menu. For instance, the ShowContextMenu = "filecount = 0 ? `Exit[id=1000]` : ( ( ( filecount = 1 ) ? filename : `multiple selection` ) + `[dis],[sep],` + menu)", displays the Exit when user right-clicks the control's background, else it displays the default menu, including the name of the file being selected if single or "multiple selection" if multiple files are being selected. For instance, the ShowContextMenu = "`[debug]` + menu", displays all item's identifiers in the control's default menu
*Added: The ExecuteContextCommand("<selection>",False, Command) executes the specified command for the control's selected items. If no selected file or folder, the ExecuteContextCommand has no effect. For instance, "ExecuteContextCommand("<selection>",False, "Copy")" copies the selected files/folder into the clipboard. For instance, "ExecuteContextCommand("<selection>",False, "Delete")" removes/deletes the selected files/folder.
*Added: The ShowContextMenu property allows adding items up or down to the default items. Before, adding new items were allowed only. If the ShowContextMenu property starts with [debug] prefix, the ID for each item in the file's context menu will be shown between () characters. For instance Open (135), indicates that the Open's ID is 135. In the same manner, you can yse the ExecuteContextCommand( "file", , "135" ) or ExecuteContextCommand( "file", , "Open" ) to open the selected file.
