0.98: Multiselect - wrong preview

Post by MacSass »

XnView: MP 0.98 - 64 bit
OS: Windows - 64bit

When doing a multi-select of serveral thumbnails at once by doing a click + hold-shift-click then the preview on second click does not show the picture that was actually clicked (last thumb selected) but it shows the first picture of the second row of the selection.
Not a major issue - but surely not intended behaviour.
When you then "move backwards" (still holding shift key) to change the selection, the behaviour is as expected (last picture of selection shown in preview windows). When you "move forward" further down again, the wrong behaviour is showing again.

Effect: <Different picture in preview window than expected.>

To reproduce:
1. Open a folder with several pictues
2. click on image - it is shown in preview windows
3. Hold shift and click on image further down some rows ... preview shows first picture of second selected row, instead of last picture


Expected behaviour: Always show last picture clicked of a selection.

See attachement for more detailed explanation ...

Regards and thanks for the great piece of software - MacSass

Hi,
still not fixed in 0.99.7 unfortunately ...

Will you consider to fix this, or you consider it too low priority?
I have not many insight, but I would guess it should not be too hard to fix it, as just the picture shown needs to the be the last one selected ...?

Would be nice if that could be fixed in future update - thanks -

Works fine for me in 1.00 Beta 2. But sure enough original reporter should double-check and confirm if possible.
