Version 4.3.10 of Default Folder X 4.3.10 is now ready for download.

It fixes a few problems in the setting of Finder labels that could be very annoying:  In some configurations, the Finder label on newly saved files would default to Yellow.  This version also gives you a couple of new AppleScript verbs, AddFavoriteFolder and RemoveFavoriteFolder.  If you use AppleScript to manage your workflow by creating or renaming folders, this allows you automate your Default Folder X favorites to keep in step.  A few other bugs have been squashed and features added – check the Release Page for details.

Version 4.3.8 of Default Folder is available now.

It adds an often-requested feature: It shows you the dimensions (in pixels) of images in its preview and info panes.  It’s also got an important fix if you’ve got a shiny new MacBook Pro: The automatic GPU switching would think that Default Folder X needed the high-powered NVIDIA graphics card, resulting in poor battery life (yeah, I thought that too – what the heck?)  This release corrects that.

It’s also got a fix for the “Make save dialogs automatically default to the current document’s folder”  feature not working correctly, new capabilities for users of AppleScript and Path Finder, expanded hotkey support, and a bunch of other goodies.

MacUpdate is featuring Default Folder X for their MacUpdate Promo of the day.  For 24 hours, you can get Default Folder X for only $19.95 – that’s 43% off the regular price.

If you don’t already own a copy, take advantage of this great deal.  If you already know how great Default Folder X is, tell your friends while they can get it for nearly 1/2 off – they’ll be forever indebted to you, not only for introducing them to DFX but also for saving them money!

Version 4.3.7 of Default Folder X is now available. It brings Drag and Drop support to the preference pane for adding favorite and default folders, adds nice little shortcuts to make working with your preferences easier, includes two new AppleScript commands and fixes a number of bugs and compatibility problems.

Things run more smoothly in general, so I recommend this update for everyone. In particular, make sure to download this version if you use Microsoft Word, FileMaker Pro, PyMOL (yeah, I’d never heard of it either), or if you’ve had instances in which Default Folder X’s toolbar buttons stop responding.
