0.84: Join images: Wrong alignments for horizontal joining

[helmut]

XnView: MP 0.84
OS: Windows 10 - 64bit

When joining images horizontally, the user can choose the vertical alignment for the images. The alignments available in the drop down list are left / center / right which are horizontal alignments.

Effect: Irritating user interface

To reproduce:
1. In XnView browser select several image files
2. Select Create » Join Images...
3. In "Join Images" dialog, choose "Horizontal" layout.
Actual behaviour (bug): In the "Alignment" drop-down list there is left/center/right.

Expected behaviour: In the "Alignment" drop-down list there is top / center / bottom.

Note: This bug was found by user "Hans H.".

if in list, i use 'Left-Top' & 'Right-Bottom' is it good?

I think entries should be
"Left / Top"
"Center / Center"
"Right / Bottom"

I think the interface would be even clearer if entries of the "Alignment" dropdownlist would depend on the type of joining (horizontal/vertical).

This problem is supposed to be fixed in XnView MP 0.85 beta 1. Please check and confirm the bug fix here.

This is the way it's displayed in v0.85 beta 1. Confirmed fixed

This hasn't been implemented, yet. Perhaps in a future release...
