preview's gif animation not resumed after return from viewer

Post by klaus2 »

Hi Pierre,

The following is not a real problem for me, but i note it because it might be not regular:

xnview all versions:
- browser: preview window shows an gif animation for a selected gif file
- dblclick on selected file; gif image appears (animated) in viewer (non-fullscreen)
(-> obviously gif animation thread for preview is stopped which is absolutely ok!)
- exit from viewer; return to browser
** browser, preview window: the gif animation is not resumed.
Did i do something wrong?

Best regards,
Klaus2

:) Hello !

• Good point !

• I can confirm that behaviour, in 1.91.4 - where I got a crash by repeating the handling
» Browser-Preview –> <– View « several times quickly - and also in an old 1.80.3 (no crash in the same conditions).

• When coming back to “Preview”, the animation doesn't restart, it's locked.

- It could be considered as a :bug: , at least as an annoying lacuna… :|

Legal handling…

:) Hello !

• IMHO, this is not a user's error, that handling is quite legal and usual in XnView…

- Hence, we can say it's an old :bugconfirmed: (minor, but annoying).
