Default Tab control overlaps with border

[helmut]

On Windows XP when using the default tab control, the tab shown overlaps with the border which separates tabs from toolbar.

To reproduce:

1.) Start XnView.
2.) In Tools > Options > Interface activate "Use default tab control".
3.) Close Option dialog with OK
--> The "Browser" tab overlaps and hides the border.

• Hi !

• Confirmed, here I get "tabs" which are not painted at all !

       

• Only the lack of a portion on the white line shows the “active tab”
- Same in Browser and in View.

• Frankly, I don't see what this option is useful for ?

Thank you for checking, Clo.

I'm not sure what this settings is good for, but perhaps some people want the native Windows controls. (I guess there has been a request for this).

-> Confirmed.

• Again…

I'm not sure what this settings is good for, but perhaps some people want the native Windows controls. …

- Yes, why not ? But in the case, we might get the normal Windows tabs,
in example I get them OK in the Options with my classic Win9x interface…

• Hence, the file-tabs are pretty buggy using that option.

@ helmut & Clo:

That option is grayed out on my system (Windows 2000).

Hi Clo!

Is this option available on both your XP and your 9x system?

[Clo]

Hi again!

• I guess you misunderstood a bit that I told above : I tested under XP-Pro only, in which I use a classic Win9x theme…

• In the same PC, I've too a Win98 SE, but it's out of duty, impossible to reuse it to boot…
- The reason is an error when installing a new M-B and XP…
- Besides, my oldie PI with 98 SE is broken and I didn't repair it yet, I miss time…

Oh, yes. Too well hidden for us.

Yes, some users want win32 tab control to have the skinning....
And you must have the .manifest on Xp if you use standard tabs

Good evening,

…And you must have the .manifest on Xp if you use standard tabs

• Sorry I HAVE it always, and I get the “ghost tabs” you can watch above…

- So, there is a somewhere…

- When one doesn't use a XP-theme, the standard corresponding tab is not found,
like for helmut and I who use classic Win9x theme !
