Changes in Default Folder X 3.0.1:

• A bug that caused crashes in Carbon applications such as Photoshop, InDesign, GraphicConverter, and others has been fixed. This crash occurred on dual- and quad-processor PowerMacs when opening files in folders that contained many items (usually more than 1000).
• Fixed the modifier key settings for Finder-click. They were not working in 3.0.
• You can now drag the parent window of a Save As sheet to move the Save dialog even when the "click on Desktop" feature is turned on.
• Fixed a bug that caused error messages to appear in the console when the Spotlight comment window was hidden.
• Temporary folders with names like "Print.1423.1" are no longer added to the Recent Folders menu.
• Fixed a bug that would cause the Finder to crash when creating a folder using the MoveItemsX contextual menu.
• Corrected Spotlight comment handling so it works correctly when filenames contain accented and non-Roman characters.
• Text now wraps correctly in the Spotlight comment window.
• Default Folder X will now correctly read registration information out of a preference file in /Library/Preferences/.
• Added the expert option "ReboundWhenChoosingFolders" to do rebound even when an application allows you to choose folders. This benefits users of Fetch, in particular. Option-click on the Settings button to access the option.
• An expert option is available to reduce the font size in Default Folder X's menus. Option-click on the Settings button to access it.
• When you turn off gray window outlines in the Open & Save tab of the settings, the gray-desktop effect is now also turned off.
• Eliminated "NSAutoreleaseNoPool" warnings in Terminal when running a Python script.
• Default Folder X now supports versions of Mac OS 10.3 prior to 10.3.9 as well as Tiger.
