When resizing the main window (browser), the folder tabs flicker. This is a bit irritating.

(Windows XP SP2)

They blink on and off with Win2k also.

Width only

:) Hello !
- This occurs too under Win 98 SE, but when adjusting the width only…
- That happens too in other programs having tabs @ home, so it could be an issue of all Wins GUIs…

:mrgreen: Kind regards,

Yeah tab bar is redrawn whenever the window's width changes, I think XnView checks for whether the window is wide enough to display all tabs, and displays the <> arrows if it's not the case.

It's a problem with TAB control from windows API :-(

I've just tried in UltraEdit and PSPad, they both have the flickering when resizing horizontally, too. FireFox doesn't flicker, but I guess they don't use the standard Tab control.

I'll set this one to [OK].
