File dialogs in Windows 7

[Ying17]

I'm using Scite with Windows 7 RC and noticed that the open and save
file dialog boxes don't behave like other file dialogs.

For example when I an in a Subversion checked-out directory in the
file dialog, I do not get any of the SVN icons as I would with a
regular Windows Explorer window. The right-click context menu on file
and folders in the dialog also does not show all the options I would
if I was looking at the same folder in Windows Explorer.

With Windows XP and Windows 2003, the folder icons and context-menus
with the file dialog screens work fine. Other programs running in
Windows 7 are also OK, with all icons and full context-menus.

I've observed this on both the 32bit and 64bit versions of Windows 7
RC.

This is similar to when XP was released and the old Windows 2000
visual style was used - there is probably something that hase to be
added to the manifest or a new option set in the calls.

Are you running Windows 7 x64 (64 bit)... if so, you need to install
both the 32bit and 64bit versions of TortoiseSVN.

32 bit Windows applications use the 32bit version of explorer, which
need the 32 bit version of TortoiseSVN.
