Updated Portuguese language file.
In the Shelf/Drawer Transparency dialog, the user can now also specify that the tab text and control icons remain opaque. This allows making the Shelf or Drawer background fully transparent while still being able to switch to different tabs, collapse it, etc...
Floating label settings have now been moved to their own independent dialog, with immediate preview of changes.
Type of text effect applied to floating labels can now be specified (Normal, Outline, Shadow, Sharp, Emboss).
Opacity of the text effect applied to floating labels can now be specified.
The luminosity of the background color used in the label preview box can be changed with the mouse scroll wheel.
Improved sharpness of icon label text in Shelves and Drawers.
Moved the menu scaling setting to the Appearance tab of Docks, Shelves and Drawers Properties dialog.
'Pin to Dock' right click menu option has been moved to the top of the menu.
Sub-docks attached to Shelves and Drawers are now properly named in context menus and in the Item Properties dialog as 'Sub-Docks'.
The right click context menu of a sub-dock attached to a Shelf or Drawer now more suitably says 'Delete sub-dock' instead of 'Remove from Shelf'.
Themes can now also specify the running indicator image by including a 'NxIndicator.png/.tif/.ico' bitmap file in the theme folder. The theme will only use that indicator bitmap, however, if the user has left the running indicator selection as 'Default' instead of specifically choosing an indicator from the list of available indicator bitmaps.
You can now specify 'No Label' for icon labels in Shelves and Drawers, at which point not even a floating label on mouseover is displayed.
The entire contents of sub-docks can now be copied by dragging & dropping a sub-dock icon while pressing the CTRL key.
Right clicking on a Folder item set to open as a menu and selecting Open from the context menu that pops up now opens the folder in Explorer.

Added new 'Grid Stacks'. Grid Stacks can be added as icons to docks, shelves and drawers. Like Shelf tabs, a Grid Stack can be one of many different types (Regular, Folder, Desktop, Recent, etc...). Like sub-docks, Grid Stacks are only kept open temporarily, until the user clicks somewhere else. The size of Grid Stacks is calculated automatically. Grid Stacks, like sub-docks, can be nested inside each other to as many levels as the user wants. Each Grid Stack has individual settings that can be accessed by right clicking the icon and selecting 'Grid Stack Properties'. To add a new Grid Stack, right click, select 'Add New Item', then Grid Stack then select the type of Grid Stack you want.
Added 'Convert to Grid Stack' option to the context menu of folders in docks and Regular Shelf tabs or Drawers.
Added 'Convert to Folder' to the context menu of folder type Grid Stacks.
Added 'change Folder' to the context menu of folder type Grid Stacks, to make it quicker to change the folder a 'folder type' Grid Stack is pointing to.

Added new 'Detach' sound event, played when a Grid Stack is detached.
Improved keyboard navigation of Shelves, Drawers and Grid Stacks.
Added new 'Quick Search Filter' to Shelves, Drawers and Grid Stacks.

The ESC key can be used to terminate the filter and backspace to delete characters.
