Rclone Explorer 5.1.0
Changed
- Windows: the program and its folder are now called
Rclone Explorer.exeinRclone Explorer(with a space). The download is stillRcloneExplorer-<version>-windows-x64.zip, so existing links keep working. The portable settings file is nowRclone Explorer.ini; an existingRcloneExplorer.ini(5.0) orRcloneBrowser.ini(4.x) next to the program is copied automatically (the newest one wins, and a settings file that is already in use is never overwritten) - The interface font is back to Segoe UI Variable / Segoe UI (Windows), with Selawik, Noto Sans and similar fonts as fallbacks elsewhere, instead of Trebuchet MS
Fixed
- Per-file progress bars sat at the top of their row instead of lining up with the file name. Each row is now name, bar and percentage, vertically centred; long file names are shortened in the middle
Faster
- Icons are rendered once and cached. Before, every repaint re-parsed an SVG: in a benchmark, painting 40,000 icons went from 1.65 s to 0.03 s (about 48 times faster), so the sidebar and long file lists repaint and scroll more smoothly
- Colour lookups (1.8x faster) and the interface font (4.6x faster) are cached; both are used on every repaint
- File types and extensions are worked out once per file and without building a
QFileInfo, row lookups no longer search linearly, and rclone log lines that are not progress lines skip all pattern matching
Improved
- Removed the background thread that loaded file icons: less code and no cross-thread sharing
- Log windows keep their newest 5000 lines instead of clearing completely at 10000
- Tests: the file-extension logic is checked against Qt's own for 19 tricky names, and the settings migration has 12 tests
