Spotlight toolbar, can't access buttons in a narrow window

Post by CreativeWorld »

Tested in xnview mp v0.61 in linux mint 15 32bit.

Open the spotlight toolbar,
image > spotlight

When the window is to narrow to fit all the buttons on the spotlight toolbar,
then two right pointing arrows shows up on the right side.

Image


If one of the spotlight toolbar separators are outside the window then the arrows become black,

Image


and when one clicks on them a white pixel shows up below the arrows.

Image


If the window is wide enough to show all the spotlight toolbar separators, then the two arrows are grayed out and nothing happens if one clicks on them, even though there still are toolbar buttons outside the window.

Image


The same type of arrows shows up on the main toolbar when the window is to narrow to fit all the buttons, if one clicks on them, then another toolbar slides down with the buttons on the left side that didn't fit on the toolbar.

Image


To cancel the spotlight mode, one has to resize the window to show the whole spotlight toolbar,

Image

because the cancel button is the right most item.

Changing the Red, Green and Blue input boxes into a color swatch like the one in,
Settings > View > Background color, would save some space on the spotlight toolbar.
