Resizing "Find Files" window marks several fields

RADiCAL · Post by *RADiCAL » 2006-11-24, 11:37 UTC

Reproduction Information:
1. Click ALT+F7 to open the Find Files window.
2. Resize the window.
3. Heed the fields:
* "Search in" textbox value will be marked.
* "Find text" textbox value will be marked even though the checkbox is unticked.

This is bad user experience.

Workarounds:
* Search in - unmark.
* Find text - you have to tick the checkbox before you can unmark the value.

Confirm.

Also applies to TC 6.54a and TC 6.55

Not confirmed, neither with normal nor with fresh ini. TC7pb2.

I can't confirm that too. (XPSP2, TC7bp2)

Hacker, StickyNomad
Please, try with fresh INI and do the following:
1. Open Find Files dialog; specify any name (e.g. "asd") and any text to search (e.g. "dsa").
2. Start search, then stop it.
3. Resize the dialog. The text in all three text fields (name, path, text) becomes selected.

Flint,

3. Resize the dialog. The text in all three text fields (name, path, text) becomes selected.

OK, I can confirm that.

Thanks. I also can confirm this now, and not only with a clean ini.

I will check what the problem is, thanks!

Unfortunately I could not find the reason of this problem, sorry.

You could not reproduce it even when starting from scratch ?
I understood it might have occurred to others (e.g. Hacker).

You understood right, the issue occured on my machine too, indeed.

But ghisler didn't say he couldn't reproduce the problem, he just stated he couldn't find its reason. As least as far as I understand his remark

Indeed I could reproduce it, but I found no trace in my code of what could be causing it, not even in the Delphi component library. It must be some obscure Windows bug.
