Back to Troi File Plugin Changelog


  • Troi File Plugin 5.5 - 14th July 2011
    • Compatibility Enhancements:
      • Tested and made compatible with Mac OS X Lion 10.7 (GM): in our preliminary testing we have found no major issues with Mac OS X Lion. Note: This is only an initial finding. We will continue our testing when newer releases of Lion come out.
    • New Functionality For Listing Folders and Searching For Files:
      • Improved the TrFile_ListFolder function: you can now recursively get the list of files and folders and all the subfolders of the folder you are listing. To enable this add the switch “-Recursive”. Note that files and folders in sub-folders are listed with their relative folder path, with a slash as separator, for example “Subfolder/Filename.txt”.
      • (Mac OS X) Improved the TrFile_ListFolder function: also added the switch “-ShowPackageContents”. When used in combination with the “-Recursive” switch this also lists the contents of a package folder (like for example a Mac OS X app).
      • (Mac OS X) Improved the TrFile_ListFolder function: changed the default to returning long file names (up to 255 characters). You no longer need to add the switch “-LongNames” to do this. If you want the truncated names (up to 31 chars), please add the switch “-ShortNames”.
      • (Windows) Improved TrFile_ListFolder function, it now better returns files with higher Unicode characters in the name.
      • (Mac OS X) Improved the TrFile_Search function: changed the default to returning long file names (up to 255 characters). You no longer need to add the switch “-LongNames” to do this. If you want the truncated names, please add the switch “-ShortNames”.
      • (Windows) Improved TrFile_Search function, it now better returns files with higher Unicode characters in the name.
    • New Functionality For Images:
      • Improved the TrFile_CreateThumbnail function, added a “-Square” switch, which will result in square thumbnails. In this case the thumbnails will have the extending parts of the wider side of the image cropped (thus showing the middle square of the image). Also note that the image will be scaled proportionally up to a square, if one of the sides of the image is smaller than the requested size. This makes sure the result is always a square with the exact dimensions requested.
      • Improved the TrFile_CreateThumbnail function, added support for creating thumbnails from CRW files (a RAW file type from Canon).
      • Improved the TrFile_MetaData function, and the switch “-GetEXIF”: Added support for getting EXIF data from RAW files. This will work for all RAW formats which are internally based on the TIFF format. Many (but not all) RAW file formats are based on the TIFF file format. Examples include 3FR (Hasselblad), DCR, K25, KDC (Kodak), CR2 (Canon), ERF (Epson), MEF (Mamiya), MOS (Leaf), NEF (Nikon), ORF (Olympus), PEF (Pentax), RW2 (Panasonic) and ARW, SRF, SR2 (Sony).
      • Improved the TrFile_MetaData function, and the switch “-GetEXIF”: also added limited support for returning EXIF data in CRW files (a RAW file type from Canon). Note that normally CRW files dont have an EXIF data block, but the plug-in will try to create one from the available data.
    • Other Fixes and Improvements:
      • Updated the example files and documentation for the new functionality.
      • Fixed a few small issues and made several smaller improvements.
