XnView Shell Extension (bug)

[ellebi]

HI.

First of all, THANKS for XnView: it's really a great software! THANKS!

I'm writing because XnView Shell Extension has a strange behaviour. When you select an image and you open the File menu (in Windows Explorer) the list is the same that you see if you open the popup menu by right clicking on the image.

But when you switch to the "Modify" menu (Modifica in italian) and, after, you go back to the File menu, the list is altered. The textual elements displayed under the image are increased. If you switch again "File-Modify" and back, the textual elements increase again... and so on...

Why does it happen?

P.S.: sorry for my bad english... I hope you'll understand what I wanted to say.

Strange, i'll check

At first, THANKS for the answer.

I don't know if it can be useful for the solution of the "problem", but in the past I've used other programs affected by the same "bug".

These programs are:

1 _ AxCrypt 1.6.1
>> http://axcrypt.axantum.com/

2 _ BFacs 2.57
>> http://www.lassekolb.info/bfacs.htm

3 _ Copy2Clip 1.0.7
>> http://davide-ficano.sourceforge.net/copy2clip/

4 _ IrfanView Shell Extension 1.02
>> http://www.baxbex.com/products.html

5 _ MRename 1.6.514
>> http://fly.srk.fer.hr/~rajko/MRename/index.php
This last program has solved the problems with the last version "MRename 1.7.516".

P.S.: I would also like to suggest a "new feature" for XnView Shell Extension. It would be really nice if the image-thumb and the other textual elements were put in a submenu, called e.g. XnShell (or something of similar).
