Taskbar hiding titlebar

Post by Danny »

If you put you windows taskbar at the top of the screen and view an image with XNView, it's titlebar will be hidden underneath the taskbar. There's as much free space at the bottom of the screen as the taskbar would occupy so i think it's a positioning problem.

Hide ???

Post by Clo »

:) Hello !

• What about "Hide automatically" for the task-bar ? I've a couple of "Quick launch" Win bars (at top) and the task-bar (at bottom) set such as, no problem… XnView stays on top, even as "Normal" (adjustable) size (I use it rarely like this).

That'd be merely a workaround and i don't like using that setting.

Well, it probably depends on my additional window settings:
- auto image size: fit image to desktop, large only
- maximize view when open enabled
- remember position enabled
- different position for browser/viewer enabled

Also make sure you open an image higher than your desktop resolution. Still the same?

Ok, as nothing has been done about this as of yet, and you seem to need proof i made a screenshot:

As you can see, the titlebar of Xnview is being obscured by the taskbar because the window is being wrongly positioned. Note the free space below the window as well.

Ok. Now this works for "fit image to desktop". Thanks.

But it still doesn't work for "fit window to image" with "force xnview to fit image" activated as well.

Can some admin move this thread to open/new in the 1.90 testin category, please?

I could reproduce this with 1.82.4. This seems to be fixed in 1.90 Beta 3. Do you confirm, Danny?

Yes, works over here. Thanks.
Get the bugs fixed, THEN start adding features. It sucks, but someone has to do it.
