I can't reproduce this bug.
During the thumbnail creation process, i go to the bottom and select one thumbnail. When creation process is finished, the selection is always on the same thumbnail...

The problem is not that the selection has changed.
The problem is that when the creation process is finished, XnView scrolls to the selected thumbnail.

To reproduce:
- go into a folder (with many pages of thumbnails to be created)
- select first thumbnail
- use the scrolling arrows to go down several pages down
- wait the end of thumbnails creation
=> bug: XnView scrolls back to selected thumbnail.

And in herr_k's case, it even happens when you don't actually select the first thumbnail.

Is it necessary to call this delete API systematicaly?

For example, all my images are perfect with the proper extension => there is no thumbnail cleaning, only the annoying scroll.

To remove non image item for example

Really, are you sure that a file is not removed?? Same file count in 'all' filter?

I confirm that even in folder with only proper pictures, XnView will scroll back to the selected thumbnail after thumbnails creation.

By the way, I also confirm that it happens if no file is selected (ie: what herr_k described).

This "auto thumbs cleaning" needs some polishing: XnView doesn't show you thumbnails of broken images... when you should be able to see that there is a file with problem (and correct the file, if you want to).

I just discovered that XnView has been hiding some of my images for years... :mrgreen:

Please keep in mind that this bug might play a role as well:
ckv ([url=http://newsgroup.xnview.com/viewtopic.php?p=68790#68790]1.95: Filtering broken in browser[/url]) wrote:Yes it's alway reproducible. The problem occurs when "All other files" and file type you filter is un selected in the file list.

Example: When both "All other files" and "Video files" are unselected in the file list, "Videos" filter doesn't work in browser.

Also when "All other files" is unselected "Custom" and "All" filter has the same effect.

My request from earlier this year:
XnTriq ([url=http://newsgroup.xnview.com/viewtopic.php?p=58098#58098]Suggestion: Corrupt image indicator ?[/url]) wrote:When you enter a directory in Browser mode (View as Thumbnails), XnView displays the images' file-type icons before generating the actual thumbnails. If a corrupted file or a CorelDraw/PostScript file without an embedded thumbnail is encountered, the file gets dismissed from the list and the user will never know that something's wrong. (Dunno how Ignore read errors* fits in.)

I see two possible solutions:
  1. Display the image's file-type icon
  2. Display a generic “broken file” icon
*Tools » Options... » General » Read/Write » General » Ignore read errors

Not always easy to know if it's a image broken,or a bad format...

It doesn't jump to when the "All other files" is selected for thumbnails in the file list. Unselect "All other files" and it should jump.

Can anyone confirm?
