Bug: XnConvert Colour Scheme/Style resets itself

Post by Stock »

I've come across a peculiar UI :bug: in XnConvert. It exists in 1.112, 1.114 and 1.115.

Reproduction steps:
1. Download XnConvert -> https://www.xnview.com/download.php?fil ... in-x64.zip
2. Start XnConvert for the first time:
xnc first startb.png
BUG: The top says "XnView MP" despite this being XnConvert.
TYPO: It should read "Programmstart" in German.
Notice that you get 4 colour scheme choices: Standard, Light, Dark and Black -> Select Black
3. Click OK
xnc first runb.png
Notice that the colour scheme is True Black, but this choice has vanished from the selection list
4. Close XnConvert
5. Run XnConvert for a second time
xnc second runb.png
Notice how the colour scheme reverted from Black to Standard

For all following runs, XnConvert stays in Standard mode instead of True Black mode.
It's not possible to go back to True Black over the UI.
The only solution I've found is editing the .ini file and setting

Code: Select all

Style=-3
but this only works for exactly one run, because the .ini also resets itself.
