XnView Software

XnView: MP 0.84
OS: Windows 7 - 64bit

Swapping height/width of the selection by pressing "W" key does no longer work after pressing Tab key.

Effect: Irritating user interface (minor)

To reproduce:
1. Open an image in Viewer of XnView
2. Select an area of the image
3. Select Edit Selection - Swap width & height
4. Press 'Tab' key two times
5. Press 'W' to swap width & height of selection
Actual behaviour (bug): Nothing happens

Expected behaviour: Height/width of selection is swapped.

Note:
If the problem shouldn't occur, press Tab, one more time and try swapping selection by pressing 'W', again.

by pressing 2 times TAB, the focus in the zoom field (status bar)

Ah, o.k., I didn't see.

Does it make sense that toolbar buttons for Zooming in/out are in tab order?

I don't think so: Tabbing to the +/- buttons and pressing spacebar for activating the button would be pretty cumbersome and I much doubt that people would known and use this. There are "+" and "-" keys for zooming in/out.

so you would like that focus can't be on +- buttons?

Correct. Focus on "+" and "-" doesn't make sense at all - no one will use these buttons via keyboard because it's far too cumbersome to use them.

O.k., thank you, I can also reproduce the problem. Issue 1125 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 in v0.85 beta 1.
