1.91.1: Compare Dialog bug

Post by ckit »

There's a double backslash after the drive letter when there should only be one...

I can't reproduce it, on which path do you start similar? And by tools menu?

Confirmed for XnView v1.91 & v 1.91.1 on Windows 2000:
  • Set the Startup Directory option to Current.
  • Exit XnView.
  • Open the command prompt.
  • Change to the root directory of any drive (e.g. “X”).
  • Start XnView from the command line (X:\>C:\Progra~1\XnView\xnview.exe).
  • The text in the title bar reads XnView - [Browser - X:\\].

Ok, right, but i'm not sure that it's the same problem...

I forgot to mention that I was using the "Find Similiar Files" tool.
I'm testing with XnView 1.91.1 now to see if the bug still exists.

Update:
XnView 1.91.1 still has this bug.

- Open XnView in Browser mode
- Open "Fin Similiar Files" dialog
- Leave default options but change target to just "C:\"
- After finishing search step through each one until you find something in say C:\Windows which would then be C:\\Windows.

Using the above instructions with Include Subfolders enabled, XnView v1.96 crashes completely after clicking "Find" button, see screenshot...
