XnView: MP 1.8.0 - 64-bit
OS: Windows 10 - 64-bit

When a new file is created externally and is auto-selected in the current view folder in XnViewMP Browser, the status bar properties (image resolution etc) is not shown. The status bar properties info will only be shown after manually selecting another file and reselecting the new file again.

Effect: When a new file is created externally and is auto-selected in the current view folder in XnViewMP Browser, the status bar properties (image resolution etc) is not shown. The status bar properties info will only be shown after manually selecting another file and reselecting the new file again.

To reproduce:
1. In XnViewMP Browser, make sure the following settings are checked :
a. View > Status bar (checked)
b. Tools > Settings > File list > Auto-select new files (checked)
c. Tools > Settings > Interface > StatusBar > Properties (checked)

2. In XnViewMP Browser, browse to a folder containing some image files, select one of them and make note that the status bar properties (image resolution etc) is shown.

3. right click on the image thumbnail and "open in file explorer".

4. In the opened file explorer window, move the file explorer window to a position that XnViewMP browser thumbnail view and status bar is still visible in the background.

5. In file explorer window, duplicate one of the image file by holding Ctrl+drag&drop.

6. Noticed that the newly created image thumbnail is auto selected in XnViewMP Browser, but the status bar 'properties' (image resolution,colordepth, aspect ratio) is not shown.


Actual behaviour (bug): New externally created file that is auto-selected is not showing properties correctly in the status bar. :bug:

Expected behaviour: New externally created file that is auto-selected should show properties correctly in the status bar.

Thanks!

png or pretty much any formats that I've tested.

Just a note that you need to do the file creation/duplication externally outside of XnView, in Windows file explorer to reproduce the bug.

Also note that it is the (image resolution) of the new file that is not shown in the status bar.
