I have been trying this nice new feature with current TC 9.0RC6 (Lister*) and wlx_mmedia_2.6.2.1.7z and it works but IMHO the Window behavior is annoying and not what should be expected for a non maximized (windowed) window especially when viewing multimedia files.Total Commander 9.0ß1 HISTORY.TXT wrote:05.02.16 Added: Ctrl+Shift+Q: Opens Quick View in separate Lister window, updates contents when going to other file (32/64)
What I initially expected (which makes most sense to me) is that the Lister* window be resizable and movable as usual and also have the TOPMOST (configurable) property set typical when viewing multimedia files. This has been common practice for a while such as in native Windows Media Center (windowed mode) default ticked checkbox setting "Always keep Windows Media Center on top".
There have always been very simple ways to do this such as:
Extended Window Styles
WS_EX_TOPMOST = 8
SetWindowPos function
HWND_TOPMOST = -1
HWND_NOTOPMOST = -2
I have checked the previous forum topics 44193 and 44349 but unfortunately and disappointingly it seems the former is in the forum TC Behaviour which will not be changed.
I really hope it will be reconsidered and a simple optional "Always on Top" be added especially to (Ctrl+Shift+Q) Lister* and even standard (F3) Lister windows as a main menu option or even built into the Lister title bar menu itself to make it even easier (ALT+SPACE) to find.
