Thanks for this great update. It's very very cool to be able to resize the window in all directions.

Noticed an issue, though: this great new feature seems not to like the "big buttons" feature (or the the other way round). Meaning: if "big buttons" are activated, the playlist disappears and the window cannot be resized anymore. In prefs, filebox has a value of 0 and it doesn't help changing that value (playlist stays hidden). It's even no longer possible to deactivate "big buttons". Only way out is to close and restart HiP.

Cheers,
Michael

Is this on kick 3.2 by any chance?

EDIT: Do you have the secondary font selection in Prefs empty, that is, have you selected the font for the module list?

EDIT EDIT: Was able to reproduce something like this. Setting the 2nd font in Prefs should help.

Why i can't use Apparent font as Main font, i think its a proportional font?

The main font is still limited to non-proportional, fixed 8x8 fonts. The module list font can be anything, on the other hand.

No, kick is 3.1.

Yes, that was the case because I didn't change any other settings and after updating from v2.53 to v2.54 the 2nd font selection was empty.
And you're right, setting the 2nd font fixed this issue, thanks for the hint.
Maybe, as a small improvement, using the 1st font as fallback if the 2nd is empty would avoid this issue.

Keep up the excellent work!

Yeah this is definitely a bug that should be fixed. In fact, I already have a fix for it :-)

Excellent!

And here I have a feature request for some future version:
It's already possible to drop files unto the HiP window. It would be great to support dropping folders as well. Currently, the message "Not a file!" appears and an empty entry is added to the list.

What do you think? Are you up to do some recursive stuff?
But then, you already do this if a folder is added by the file requester. Shouldn't be too much trouble then, right?

A nice idea You're right that all the bits and bobs should be available, just have to organize them to work together.

Is there somewhere to download all HIP updates since version 2.45?

the latest update is always at https://aminet.net/search?query=hippo+update he also sometimes posts the link in this thread to get it out fast when waiting for aminet submission.

[AmiClassic]

This I know.
I'm looking for all individual updates 2.45->2.46, 2.46->2.47 etc.

looks like just the incremental sources are available rather than full executable releases?.
