Minor: Open With and Favourites Divider bug

[ckit]

<Moderator's note: This post has been edited.>

I installed XnView 1.80.1 (I know it's unofficial but it's stable in my opinion) on mum's machine and I noticed that because the "Open With" menu was empty, there was a useless divider at the top of the menu.

The same goes for the Favourites menu, if empty it shouldn't have a divider at the bottom of the menu.

Also Favorites is spelt "Favourites" with the U, only Americans spell it as Favorites.

Any chance we can fix these before Monday?

For extra divider, i don't fix it in 1.80.1
So i'll change favourites to favorites.

- I guess you misunderstood :
- The right spelling in classic English (UK) is Favourite(s)
- However, spelt as plural, it's a noun, and it's rather related to persons.
- In our use here, it might be "Favourite (folders, dirs.)" as adjective, hence without a final "s"
Just my two pence…

On a English Windows I have seen "Favorites" in Internet Explorer, not sure whether the English version was AE or BE. XnView is supposed to use British English, so I also tend to "Favourites". Native speakers please intervene if needed.

Good. 1.80.1 should have the changes that are really needed, only.

Well, acording to Encyclopædia Britannica dictionary favorite it's the correct, and there is no match for favourite, but another word can be used, bookmark

In 1.93.6 I still have this useless divider at the bottom of the (empty) "Favourites" menu!


Beside this, there's another useless divider shown at the bottom of the "Filter" menu. Here (minimal installation) the menu looks like this:

Code: Select all

Effects...
Use filter...

Adobe Photoshop Plug-In...

1. Add an entry to the favourites menu and it's fixed!

2. There should be 8 other plugins after that divider, download the Full package to fix it!
