0.50 and OS X problems

Post by maxim_k »

Hi,

First of all I want to express my deep gratitude to Pierre for the great work. I use the XnView MP in Mac OS since version 0.1 and appreciate the author :D

But anyway:

1. I have noticed a problem with Main application menu in both versions of XnViewMP (32 and 64-bit) on both OS's (Snow Leopard and Lion):
at some moment after launching and using App, when I open image in Viewer from Browser by double-clicking on it main menu disappears (I see only XnView item):

Sometimes menu is visible, but none of the items active.

2. If I put some folder to Favorites and this folder has sub-folders, then clicking in browser on sub-folder on Favorites pane doesn't open this sub-folder in main browser window.

Thanks,
Maxim

Right, it's when you close a tab...

Strange, i have not this problem...

I tried to reproduce this behavior in 10.7.3, and it does not occur on my machine, too. It's probably Snow Leo specific? I no longer have SL, so I cannot test this either...

I don't have the main menu disappearance effect either, however, I remember that I could observe this happening under 0.39 frequently. It then went away with 0.48. I always throw away all preference files with a new program version. So maybe it's old preferences?

Hi,

After some time (a long one :) ) I have found the roots of my problem with "Favorites":
2. If I put some folder to Favorites and this folder has sub-folders, then clicking in browser on sub-folder on Favorites pane doesn't open this sub-folder in main browser window.
When I add some folder to Favorites the path to the folder written in bookmark.ini file in a form:
"Documents"*"/Volumes/Snow Leopard/Users/max/Documents"
- without forward slash at the end of the string, when I manually change it to:
"Documents"*"/Volumes/Snow Leopard/Users/max/Documents/"
then I can open sub-folders from Favorites.

How do you add your folder in favorites??
