1.3.1 Linux - Changing mouse left/right click action only applies to current viewer tab, not all open tabs

Post by NM64 »

(tested on Linux Mint 20.3 Xfce, but may happen on other platforms as well)


1. Open two images in two separate viewer tabs in a single program instance.

2. While viewing one of the images, go into XnView MP's Tools -> Settings... -> Interface -> Mouse

3. Simply change the actions for the left click as well as the right click, then click "OK".

4. Observe how your changes are applied to the current viewer tab without issue.

5. Now switch to your other open viewer tab and observe how the changes you implemented in step #3 are not active and it's behaving as if you never even performed step #3.

6. Now switch back to your initial open viewer tab and observe how the changes you implemented in step #3 are still in fact active, albeit only in this viewer tab.
