IPTC annoying display bug

Post by Jarda »

This bug is reproducible, i am using XnView v. 1.93.6 under Windows 2000 SP4:
Use long IPTC captions in JPG files (160+ chars). Open XnView image manager first, then doubleclick to switch to image browser. Use fullscreen button (you should previously set to display IPTC caption data but no another item in fullscreen mode) - the first image loads correct with full IPTC caption text. The next image is displayed well but IPTC caption text from previous image is *not* entire cleared from display - appears new text for the second image and stays part of text from the first image (in my case the chars in position 153 and all following).

The third image will be displayed with text related to third image plus part (end) of text related to the second image and part of text related to the first image etc.

Font @Arial Unicode MS, normal, size 14, green color, bg color not specified (black set but unchecked).

The bug appears as the text mixture (see second line on the screenshot):

This bug is still present in 1.94 final. Are "Jarda_free" examples useful?
