Slideshows ignoring Windows display scaling

Post by gordol »

v1.4.2 in Windows 11. This worked properly in 1.4.0, didn't use this function in the short amount of time 1.4.1 was installed.

Slideshows are now showing images in such a way as to ignore the Display Scale set in Windows.

I have my laptop set to native resolution of 1920x1080 at 125% scaling, and all slideshow images are oversized for the display, with scroll bars that are basically useless in a slideshow. If I reset my display scaling to 100%, this does not happen. Slideshows are set to Fullscreen.

Testing, if I change the slideshow setting to a fixed window size and set it window size, I no longer get the scrollbars, but now it appears that the images are still in full-size overrunning the right and bottom edges of the window.

I have not tried this on my Win11 nor Win10 desktops, though both of those are set to 100% scaling.

This seems also to be the case on Mac OSX Ventura 13.2
27" iMac - all slideshows oversize the window irrespective of setting (full screen, specific resolution, etc...).
V 1.4.2 64-bit (24 January 2023)

Does NOT present in V 1.4.0.

I have tried it on the Win11 desktop, at 100% display scaling, and it works properly.

This is still happening on scaled Windows displays with XnView MP Windows Version 1.4.2 64bits (Jan 23 2023). Update check shows this is the current version.
