Fixed for the release 594.

Where is this setting where I can choose, if a new tab opens when selecting a favorite?

This would be really a great feature.

In my opinion there is no reason to limit the possible Shortcuts for the favorites to only 10.
It should be possible to assign every shortcut you want.

Right after installing FC XE 593, it is not possible to add favorites via the context menu (Alt + Up)

Also the shortcut Shift + Ctrl + V does not work.

After I once have open the edit menu and close it with the OK button, the the described features suddenly work.

Selecting a favorite now automatically opens a tab, in each panel. For those of us who don't use tabs, can this be made optional? Thanks. This would be the best option, since everyone has different preferences, so there should be an option like "open favorites in a new tab" in the settings.

One addition:
Possibility to hide the favorites-bar

Try Alt + F or "Favorites -> Favorites tree".
That should do it for you.

By the way:

this issue can now be moved to "Resolved Beta Bugs & Issues"

1. delete favorite items


2. click ok after deleting


3. error after clicking ok


I'm sending you the bug report right now.

If I edit the redesigned favorites, click on "favorite items" and delete it, FC XE (release 0.0.0.593) crashes when I click OK.

I think, the delete button should be inactive and greyed out when you click on "favorite items".

First of all: I really like the redesigned favorites. But I have one suggestion, which would make it even better. It would be nice if you could assign more different hotkeys for the favorites. Why limiting it to only 10 different combinations when you can define every keyboard shortcut you want like...

I like the redesigned favorites.

Thank you, Marek.

Is it possible to select icons for favorite toolbars?

You can select icon files, but it would be really helpful if FX XE would bring a set if icons, from which you can choose.

Otherwise it looks like here, when you have lots of different categories:

This is the only missing feature now which I really need.

I still hope the handling of the folder favorites will be better in a future version.

Categories are already implemented in the favorite toolbars. So it should be really easy to bring them to the folder favorites. This is everything I want.

Keyboard shortcuts are available also for Favorite toolbars (Ctrl+0-9). I want open the shortcuts by keyboard which already exists (Alt + Up) and the select the right favourite via keyboard. And the favourites should be organized like in every good browser, where you have the possibility to group t...

I personally don't use favorite folders. you can define and access any particular folder in one single click by using the favorite toolbar. you even may assign an individual icon to each folder: http://www.freeimagehosting.net/t/k854r.jpg Shortcuts are better and faster to use than clicks and searc...

Hm.. then I think you can create "folder" in favorite tools: "Add new toolbar" and "Add new category" - this way you will have one folder and one subfolders (of course any number of folders and subfolders). You can assign a custom icon for each category. The problem is...
