Subject: 0.83: Changing theme doesn't update XnView

When switching themes, XnView MP is not always updated.

To reproduce:
1. When switching from Fusion them to Fusion dark, XnView MP is updated. (o.k.)
2. When switching back from Fusion dark to Fusion, XnView MP is not updated.

you need to restart to update theme...

O.k., I didn't know because most colours change immediately. Perhaps a message box: "Please restart XnView to apply the new theme." would be good (just like when changing the setting for the on-screen language).

Suggestion

XnView: MP 0.84 x64
OS: Windows 7 - 64 bit

When switching themes, all themes but default take effect immediately, but switching to default requires a restart of the program to take effect.

Effect: Requires restart to switch (back) to default theme, making switching themes somewhat of a pain

To reproduce:
1. Select any theme, then select any other
2. All themes except default will take effect as soon as selected
3. When selecting default theme, nothing happens until program is restarted, at which point it will take effect

Actual behaviour (bug): Default theme doesn't activate properly

Expected behaviour: Should switch to default theme immediately after selecting it

Thanks for reporting, vertigo. I've posted a suggestion before and merged it with this bug report.

(It's more a bug than a suggestion because the lack of the message box causes quite some confusion.)

Reproduced

O.k., thank you, I can also reproduce the problem. Issue 1136 is fixed in next version.

This problem is supposed to be fixed in XnView MP 0.85 beta 1. Please check and confirm the bug fix here.

Confirmed fixed.
