Deleting folders do not work?
I marked the directory in the left treeview window and
tried the shortcut [SHIFT]+[DEL] to delete the folder.
XNView MP tries to delete the not existing files in the empty folder.
It is a bit funny.

Tested in 0.87 beta 2. Not fixed.
With Shift-Del a folder still cannot be deleted from the folder pane. Now nothing happens (no question if Items should be deleted).
I think there are some issues with selecting a folder and wanting to soft-delete (Del) or permanently delete (Shift-Del) the folder, both for folders with itmes and without.
I've seen more than one bug report recently...

The original bug is fixed, please open a new topic for SHIFT+DEL on treeviewHanVroon wrote:Tested in 0.87 beta 2. Not fixed.

I was just trying to help testing...

XNView MP tries to delete the not existing files in the empty folder.
Testing with an empty folder in the treeview.
Selected the empty foler in the treeview, then pressing Shift + Del, like the topic poster.
Now there is no message anymore that XnViewMP tries to delete the not existing files in the empty folder, but still Shift + Del doesn't do the right thing.
Or isn't it normal expected behaviour that Shift + Del with focus on a directory would delete the directory?

Re: Deleting folders do not work?
The problem was the message box. Currently Shift+Del is only supported in thumbnails viewHanVroon wrote:I was just trying to help testing...

Re: Deleting folders do not work?
OK, didn't know that it was not supported. In that case it's fixed...
