Won't remember maximized window if close in fullscreen mode

Post by TsunamiZ »

XnView won't remember to start up as a maximized window if closed while in fullscreen mode [ALT+F4].

It's quite annoying because the next time the XnView starts back up, it's in windowed mode so users have to maximize it again--and repeat this tediousness every time it happens. :?

:) Hello !

- I checked at this moment, I cannot confirm.

- I closed when displayed as full screen (from "View") with ALT+F4, then I restarted the programme, I got a maximized window, as expected…
- With 1.80.3 and 1.82 RC2 - Win XP-Pro SP1

Well, it's maximized in a sense, but not the REAL absolute maximized window which is static and can't be dragged. I want it to remember the REAL absolute maximized window.

Do ALT+F4 in fullscreen mode. Then launch XnView back up and see if it is.

Fresh INI ?

Post by Clo »

:) Hello !

ImageMystery and gums” , like my Grand'mum said…

- You could try to rename your INI, then see what occurs with a fresh one that the programme rebuilds, as soon as you have reset the right options to get the maximized window @ the start-up time…

- Here, that works fine still with 1.82 RC3 by now, and I did not change the INI…

With my bug, I have XnView set to start out in fullscreen mode. Maybe that has something to do with ti?

Maybe there can be an in-program setting to alway start XnView in maximized window.

:) Hello !

• If you have an icon on the Desktop or in a Quick start tool-bar, simply set :
right-click >> Properties >> Execute [Enlarged window] or something like this (it's in French here…)

• It's possible also from i.e. Total Commander via its button-bar, there is a similar setting in the Options >> Buttons dialogue. Certainly too with other file managers able to set buttons for programmes to start…
