B2: Lock layout, dimensions forgotten

Post by marsh »

[Browser]
LockLayout=0
Layout 3 Three panes visible.
Image
1. Close Tree panel with divider arrow. So now 2 panes visible.
2. Close XnView.
3. Change to LockLayout=1
4. Restart xnview.
5. Reopen Tree panel using divider arrow.
6. *Tree panel size is now shrunken (not same dimensions as above):
Image
Should arrows be locked? :?

:) Hello B. !

• Here, despite I didn't set LockLayout=1, I found it as is in my INI now !
- So, that explains MY POST THERE. I reset "0", but then :
• Something is broken in the layouts, since now I can't get the Preview tab !
-The preview is shown - like I assumed in my other thread - between the board of thumb nails and the lower area
Properties, Histogram etc., but I can't restore the Preview there !
• How it looks with a very small image :

• It's layout #4, the image might be in the lower area from a (missing) Preview tab…
• Several faces of the same bug ? :?

Hi C,
Weird, maybe something B1 did... I don't understand the idea of locking interface. If one changes layouts, it is all going to get trashed anyway.

:) I changed my skin (thus, my INI) twice, checked the two INIs and fixed one entry found as different,
restarted XnView several times and the bug has gone !
BUT :: Like that occurs very often when I test a new version, I noticed that the whole settings of my 1.82.4 version
set in another folder has been quite broken…
- I'd to remake it totally…
