Options - Cache question

The order of which the different compression-types are strange, it ranges from None (lossless) to Lossy (High quality). Shouldn't "Lossy - low quality" be located last in the list, so it ranges from best to worst quality?

Ergo:
1. None
2. Lossless (ZIP)
3. Lossy - High quality (JPEG)
4. Lossy - Low quality (JPEG)

Right, order of menu items should be from high quality to low quality.

Fixed in ß-4.

In direct relation to this request, there is a new bug in Beta 5: "Lossy - High quality (JPEG)" and "Lossy - Low quality (JPEG)" parameters are exchanged.
ie: 'Low quality' has higher quality/size compared to 'high quality'.
I believe only the text has been updated and not the compression (or something along the line).
-> moved back to 'New/Open'

Being afraid that I could lose all the thumbs currently indexed I'm skipping testing of b5 and eagerly waiting for b6...

Solved with Beta 6.
(but beware: I think previous setting will need to be changed in order to keep the same JPEG quality setting, as order and value must have been exchanged at the same time)

No "Beware", Olivier, it seems that the correct setting is kept: I had "Lossy - High quality" selected in b4, the setting is the same and the thumbs are not recreated, which means that the value is correctly stored. Don't know what may be necessary to do from b5 to b6, though, in that case it's well possible that you need to change the setting: to avoid that as I said I completely skipped b5.

Thanks for the info, robc (I may have changed my options too often and just forgot about them before upgrade, so... ).
