Select language error
Hello Bat People, Every time I run spell check I get the error message: "Please select languages used in the text." I set and reset the languages and/or dictionary, but the error continues. Where can I go to clean this up? Thanks. -- Best regards, Richard mailto:the...@newmangroup.com=Using The Bat! v10.4.0.1 on Windows version 10 Build 19045 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Re: 10.4 Right-clicking an attachment activates it in tab, viewing it

Right click on an attachment should select that attachment, otherwise there is no point for most menu commands, so it's at least has some logic behind :) We may rethink this, though we did not see much complains about the current auto-preview behavior - normally, people either just like it or switch it off... > - In my case the document is a PDF, which is being viewed in an embedded > Acrobat Viewer if I'm not mistaken and thus the potential for an exploit > being launched thru it is not mitigated. PDF are viewed either using Chromium PDF viewer or (in the single process mode) they are converted into HTML using the same library we use for Office documents. In both cases, no Adobe software is used... -- Best regards, Stefan Tanurkov 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

My gut tells me: standard click yes, right click has already another function and shouldn't trigger the standard click response too. - In my case the document is a PDF, which is being viewed in an embedded Acrobat Viewer if I'm not mistaken and thus the potential for an exploit being launched thru it is not mitigated. -- Cheers Viktor Kabelacmailto:tbbeta-l...@kabelac.cz TheBat! 10.4.0.1 Pro (x64, no OTFE) on Windows 10.0 x64 19045 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Viewing Office attachments is safe because the code for conversion them into HTML is built in, does not run any scripts and protected against buffer underrun and other vulnerabilities. If a document cannot be displayed withing The Bat!, most probably it contains an exploit... -- Best regards, Stefan Tanurkov 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
