v1.97.6 - preview on second monitor won't stop

Post by icabod »

Hi.

Using v1.97.6 on Windows XP (SP2) machine, with dual monitor setup.

Turning off the "Use fullscreen on second monitor for previewing" continues to use the second monitor for previewing until I exit XnView and restart the application.

To recreate (with a dual-monitor setup):
1. Select Tools -> Options -> "Browser/Preview", and enable "Use fullscreen on second monitor for previewing", and Apply.
2. In the browser select an image file and the preview appears on the second screen, in full-screen mode.
3. Select Tools -> Options -> "Browser/Preview", and disable "Use fullscreen on second monitor for previewing", and Apply.
4. In the browser select another image, and the preview still appears on the second screen, in full-screen mode.

The full-screen preview continues until XnView is exited and restarted, at which point the normal preview returns.


My system has two monitors, the Left monitor is the "second" screen, the Right monitor is the "first" (main) screen on which XnView runs.

Also, I store my settings in the registry (not the ini-file). I have tested by deleting the "XnView" registry key, and the effect is the same.

Regards, 'bod

Just trying this on the latest version (1.98.2), and this issue still exists, reproducible as above.
