Solved [TC 8.0b1 x86] Weird arrows in separate tree

[petermad]

In the 32bit version under win 7 in tree view, separate tree and FTP connections the tree junction arrows has no left side:

For both 32 and 64bit versions, if the line color is not default (for example TreeLineColor=0), then the lines are visible through the arows:

and: http://madsenworld.dk/tcmd/septree64_0.png


Even with default line color the arrows don't look good in the 32bit version:

It is only in the 64bit version with default line color (TreeLineColor=-1) that it looks decent:

In classic theme it doesn't work at all, but that is already reported.

I liked the old + and - boxes in previous TC-versions much better - maybe they could be optional?

I cannot confirm the missing left side here. It looks the same with 32-bit and 64-bit. Maybe a settings problem?

[petermad]

Well, I can reproduce it here with standard Windows 7 theme and clean wincmd.ini file.

Could you create screen shots with beta 2 too, please?

32bit:
TreeLineColor=-2: http://madsenworld.dk/tcmd/septree32_2_2.png
TreeLineColor=-1: http://madsenworld.dk/tcmd/septree32_1_2.png
TreeLineColor=0: http://madsenworld.dk/tcmd/septree32_0_2.png

64bit:
TreeLineColor=-2: http://madsenworld.dk/tcmd/septree64_2_2.png
TreeLineColor=-1: http://madsenworld.dk/tcmd/septree64_1_2.png
TreeLineColor=0: http://madsenworld.dk/tcmd/septree64_0_2.png

So with custom color for the lines it still doesn't look good because the triangles are transparent - they should be non-transparent with a 1 pixel tranparent outer border.

Unfortunately the shapes are drawn by the theme, I have no influence on transparency and color.

[petermad]

I was afraid of that - well I'll just stick to TreeLineColor=-1 then.

[ghisler(Author)]

Maybe I should just show the old [+] icons if the user has set a different TreeLineColor?

Great idea!

[ghisler(Author)]

OK, I will do that, and also make it configurable.

[ghisler(Author)]

OK, I have added it now in beta 4! You can also choose the type manually, see history80.txt. It's not documented in the help yet, because it's experimental.

Thanks for this option - works fine in both X46 and 32 bit version
