Not preserving layout column widths...

Post by Katamara »

Hello.

XnViewMP 0.61
Linux Debian 64 latest, gnome-classic

I save my layout to 'A'

When I re launch XNViewMP again, it will not remember the column widths I assigned, even
when I restore layout A.

Thank you.

I confirm this is still a problem in MP 0.64 (Ubuntu, 64bits)

I changed my screen for a very large one (1920*1080), and I now use layout 7, with a square preview on the right half (*), and the other half shared between 4 columns of thumbs (cursor set at 80) and the folders/categories/favorites . That's very comfortable to scan many pictures, but...

The width of the columns disappears every time I quit and restart ;-((

(*) I would like to have an indication of the size of the preview zone, at least while I'm modifying it, just like you have an indication of the size of a selection in an image.

By the way, I think this topic should be in in the "MP-Bug-reports" forum ;-)

I wonder if it is specific to Linux.
I tried under Win7x64 version 0.64, and cannot reproduce.
My custom column order and widths are always retained across restarts, flipping between standard layouts, custom layouts, saved and restored layouts.
