the batch Identify Mystery Files window to allow its

This makes it a lot easier to locate the files you'd

second.<br>
</font> <font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><br>
</font></li>
<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"> </font>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Adds a
Windows File Explorer emulation mode to Graphic
Workshop's drag and drop functionality — it can be
enabled in the Setup → Browser → Drop Options field.
With Windows Emulation selected, dragging files
between folders on the same drive will move them,
dragging files between drives will copy them and
holding down the Ctrl key when you drag and drop
files will copy them no matter where they're going.</font><br>
<br>
</li>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Updates
Archive Manager so a Wait window appears when files
are dropped into a ZIP archive. It also fine-tunes
the user interface of its various File Open and File
Save windows.<br>
</font> <font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><br>
</font> </li>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Further
improves the new validation logic to reduce the
likelihood of Graphic Workshop unregistering itself
due to silent Windows upgrades. We hasten to add
that since the release of Graphic Workshop
Professional 10, this has occurred precisely zero
times.<br>
