"Showinfo" not work when open image from explorer from second time

Post by gm649 »

Hi, i want to report a bug of latest version of xnview mp (1.4.3) with windows 10:
"Showinfo" not work when open image from explorer from second time

my settings :

general=> mode when starting with a file : "viewer-fullscreen"
general=> allow only one instance
view=> info=>"always show in fullscreen" ticked
view=> fullscreen=> "show info" ticked

how to reproduce :
-open image in xnviewmp in the first time : "show info" work
-leave xnview mp open, switch to window explorer and open another image (image should open in fullscreen mode) => " show info" not work , there is no info show (while info expected to be shown)
(for more clearly, bug only appears when open image in 2nd time in explorer and onwards)
Thanks

it looks like xnviewmp writes (some?) settings to .ini file on close only, so your new instance uses unchanged .ini

do you mean second time? because with my settings, there is only 1 tab allowed

if i open another image second time while xnviewmp not in fullscreen mode, the info still shows,
with me the info only disappear when i open second image while xnviewmp still in fullscreen

here 's some additional detailed info
step1 : when i open image on the first time, it opened in fullscreen, and info show
step2 : then i use windows + d to show desktop (leave xnviewmp open) , then open image by windows explorer
=> it should open in fullscreen and the info not show

but if in step 1, if i open the image not in fullscreen mode,or change to window mode, then open another image, the info still shows (like i said above)
