What changed

Added

  • Put the storages in the navigation panel in your own order (#57). Drag a
    storage row, or use its menu (right click, a long press, or Shift+F10):
    Move up, Move down, Sort by name, Use default order. The order is kept on
    your account, so it follows you to every browser, and Home's storage cards
    follow it too.
  • Administrators set the order everybody starts from (#57). The admin
    Storages page is a table now: drag a row by its handle, use Move up / Move
    down in its Actions menu or the arrow keys on the handle, and Reset to
    default order. People who have not arranged their own see this order;
    PUT /api/admin/storages/order sets it (migration 00060 adds
    storages.sort_order).

Changed

  • New document: name the file anything — LICENSE, Makefile,
    test.conf, example.custom (#56).     The dialog drew the type's extension
    as a read-only suffix, so a Plain text document was always <name>.txt. The
    name field now holds the whole file name: the type prefills it
    (Untitled.txt), focusing it selects the stem like a rename, and a type
    switch keeps what you typed (only swapping the previous type's default
    extension). The type still decides the contents and the editor — LICENSE
    made as Plain text opens in the text editor, README made as Markdown in
    the markdown editor. Office documents and diagrams keep their extension,
    because their editors find them by it: the dialog says "will be created as
    report.docx" instead of locking the field, and an empty x.docx made as
    Plain text is refused. Behind it: POST /api/files/manager?action=newfile
    takes exact_name: true (without it the extension is appended exactly as
    before, so older clients are unchanged), newdoc_types rows carry
    ext_required, and a refused borrowed extension answers 400 EXT_NEEDS_TYPE. Name checks — a leaf, no .., reserved names — are as
    strict as they were.
  • A text file whose name has no known extension opens as text and can be
    saved (#56).     LICENSE, NOTICE or notes.custom fell through to the
    viewer's Download fallback, and save-text — which allows by extension —
    refused them with 415. The viewer now opens such a file as plain text when
    the server's mime for it says text, and save-text saves an existing file the
    catalogue calls text (a file it calls anything else, or a path with no
    catalogue row, is refused as before). The listing draws such a file with the
    text icon and names it "Plain text" instead of "?" and "—".

Fixed

  • A new document opens once in the desktop app. It came up twice: in its
    own window and in the viewer over the explorer, because creating a document
    opened the in-page viewer before telling the app. It now takes the same path
    as every other open (the app's window only). Found while building #56.

  • An app screen speaks the language ON SCREEN, not the account's. An
    embedded explorer (<filex-explorer> with config.locale: 'tr') draws the
    language its host page chose, and nobody asked the account — whose language
    defaults to English. The server told every app the ACCOUNT's language
    (Accept-Language ranks below it on purpose), so an app's plain strings came
    out English in a Turkish popup: the signing app's wizard asked "Identity"
    with "One signer per line…" under it. The explorer now names its language on
    every app call (?lang= on …/run, the view GET, every …/event), and
    the server puts that explicit choice first — then the account's, then
    Accept-Language, as before. The standalone app is unchanged: its language
    and the account's are the same one.

  • The operations tray says an app's job in the reader's language. The job
    row froze the action's label and the app's result in ONE language when the
    job was created, so a Turkish embed read "Convert…" and an English result.
    The row now keeps every language the app wrote and the tray's poll
    (/api/files/ops?lang=) reads them in its reader's — the label, the result,
    and the reason an app gave for failing. Rows written before read as they
    were; no migration.

  • Every core dialog's close button is named in the explorer's language.
    The × of every dialog (modals/Modal.vue) took its accessible name from the
    dialog's own locale prop and fell back to English, and not one of the
    twenty core dialogs passed it: a screen reader said "Close" over a Turkish
    app popup. A dialog now inherits the language of the explorer it sits in
    (an explicit locale still wins).

  • An archive being made no longer looks like a click that did nothing. An
    archive job read "0%" beside an empty ring for most of its run: reading the
    members off their storage — most of the time on a remote store — was worth
    0–10% of the bar, counted per member, and the built-in ZIP and the write of
    the result reported nothing. Measured in production, 175 files off S3: two
    minutes between 0% and 9%, and the person who started it saw no sign of it.
    Each phase now moves in bytes while it runs — reading 0–45%, compressing
    45–90%, writing 90–99% — and creating or extracting an archive opens the
    operations panel on the job, so its name, progress bar and Cancel are on
    screen when the dialog closes rather than a small badge in the corner.

  • Typing in the code editor no longer triggers the explorer's shortcuts.
    In Chrome and Edge the editor types through the browser's EditContext, so
    its focused element is not a text field, and the explorer took the
    keystrokes: I opened the info panel, S starred the file, Space opened
    quick look and Backspace went up a folder — "MIT License" typed into a new
    file arrived as "MLcene". The shortcut guard and quick look's arrow keys now
    treat the editor (and any role="textbox") as typing. Found while building
    #56.
