Lost browser size after return from viewer

Post by klaus2 »

Dear Xnview'ers,
really appreciating the 1.80.3 update very much, i however found 2 things, not sure if those are bugs?
Kind Regards!

case 1:
Settings:
[x] General>>remember last window position/size
[x] General>>Use different position/size for browser and view
Try:
- Maximize Browser window (by dblclick on caption bar)
- dblclick on image, pgdown in viewer for to get next image;
- then ESC for to return to the browser
- now dblclick on the caption bar for to restore the 'original' (non-maximized) size
---> oops, the size of the browser is now the same as the viewer (and not the browser) had before,
although the setting was "use different size/position"

case 2:
Settings:
[ ] General>>remember last window position/size
[x] General>>Use different position/size for browser and view
Try:
- Maximize Browser window (by dblclick on caption bar)
- dblclick on image, pgdownin viewer for to get next image;
- then ESC for to return to the browser
---> oops, the size of the browser is (differently to case 1) identical with
its original size, but the browser lost its maximized state but i did
not tell him to de-maximize at all ..

At least for me. case 1 is more ugly because i'd like to "save" my user-defined window height during sessions
and now i've got the wrong size saved ..

i too encountered, that xnview is not saving the position and size when being maximized.

i start my xnview maximized via options.

also i had this:
[x] General>>remember last window position/size
[x] General>>Use different position/size for browser and view

start xnview.
make it *not* maximized if it is :)
size and position xnview as you like.
maximize it.
close xnview via the X button.
start xnview.
make it *not* maximized if it is :)

now, the position and the size is not the same anymore.
