unwanted change in browser size when view zoomed

Post by dquille »

I have seen an odd behavior that seems to be related to the zoom function. Select an image in the browser and hit enter to enter view mode. If you change the size of the view by dragging the window to resize and then hit enter to go back to the browser, the browser goes back to how it was set before like it should. A problem occurs, however, if you go from browser into view mode and you zoom out (and the window resizes as you zoom out) until the view window is smaller than the original browser window. Then hit enter to go back into browser mode and the browser will be resized to smaller than it's original size (and the preview window might be gone until you resize the browser window).

Try: Options>General>[ ]Use different position/size for browser and view
(it should have expected results when launching images from browser)

That's the problem, this specific problem occurs even with the appropriate "Options>General>[ ]Use different position/size for browser and view" setting set.

Problem still exists in the newest release. I created some screenshots to show exactly what's happening, but I don't see a way to post them in this forum.

I did not see your thread here before I posted my bug report.
So I am not the only one seeing this oddness, and _now_ I see that this bug really is known from the links to other posts.

My version with 100% reproduce step-by-step from a default install (i.e. deleted/renamed xnview.ini)
