Setting Rating with Ctrl + Numberpad X fails in View mode

[palmernet]

XnView version: 1.97.8
OS: Windows XP

1. Setting Rating with Ctrl + Numberpad 1,2,3,4 or 5 to set rating works perfectly in Browser view.
2. If I go to view mode, Ctrl + Numberpad 1,2,3,4 or 5 to set rating causes XnView to ask me whether to save changes, but does cause the rating to be saved.

Is there a work-around or solution for this?

Note: Moved from "Resolved Bugs & Requests" forum.

In view mode Ctrl+Numpad keys are used to change contrast or brightness, not to change rating!

To change rating you can use browser fullscreen as workaround, in browser press F11 to enter browser fullscreen.
