Feedback on new version 2.3.4.8

[stupomer]

Hi Gintaras,
Thank you so much for continuing to make QM better with every version. I am making new converts all the time. I am enjoying the new version immensely and wanted to let you know what I really like and what I think you could still use some improvement.

- I love the Open Items and Running Items palettes!!!!! So handy to see at a glance!!! Though I wish the right-click menu on the items in this list allowed you to copy/Ctrl-C like the search menu result items.

- The WindowText class is a lifesaver for me for .NET modules that don't allow you to scrape any other way. Thanks for developing this!!!!

- F format strings

- child supports Windows Forms (.NET) control name !!!!

- wait WT !!!

-don't need to register mailbee com components!

- png support

- Chrome acc support

- easier tooltips - but if you need to change the tooltip dynamically, do you just use the old way or is there a new way to update?

- exe version info - cool but is it accessible in the code - like in an info box to use in a formatted version field?

Things I miss from previous versions.....

- setwintext being in the Window/Control actions - I know it is now in the Text dialog but it seems to make logical sense in the original location as well.

- The button action dialogs under Control-specific actions - (and also CB and LB actions) - these were helpful wizards. I am much more able to code in QM without the wizards now but I know they helped me a lot early on and still are of use (e.g. the copy/rename options etc - which are still present!).

Thanks again for everything Gintaras!!!
