?Icons disappearing in tab headers

[Lefteous]

*Sometimes* the previously shown icons in tab headers disappear and just nothing is shown instead. The tab header width remains unchanged - the space for the icons is still reserved.

Sorry, I couldn't find the steps to reproduce so far. Will provide a screenshot as soon as possible. I can just just say that it happened multiple times so far.

Hmm, never seen that for the last few months - may have something to do with your view mode configuration. Could you post or mail it, please?

[Lefteous]

Unfortunately I didn't save the view mode config when it happended. I could not reproduce it anymore. I will of course report if I can reproduce it again.

[ghisler(Author)]

Yes, please do! I have never seen this problem, so it may be your special settings causing it.

I finally was able to make a screenshot (TC 9 , beta 3). Unfortunately I still cannot provide exact steps to reproduce but I have some more information though.

Beside the icon the tab header color is also not set. Settings like sorting and columns are set.

When the described error states has been reached I can not even manually load another view mode correctly.

This is the view mode definition

Code: Select all

3_name=Suchergebnis
3_icon=shell32.dll,22
3_options=8|-1|0||65280|-1|-1

Creating another TC instance based on the current TC configurations displays the view modes just fine

Unfortunately I couldn't reproduce this problem so far. Please let me know whether it still happens with beta 4 or not.

I also faced this problem before without success finding what's the reason but after deep investigation i found that it is some how related to cm_ToggleAutoViewModeSwitch

To reproduce
1- Start TC with the following settings
2- Execute cm_ToggleAutoViewModeSwitch
3- Now each tab will lost its view mode when activating


BTW: any tab preserve its view mode if it is activated before executing cm_ToggleAutoViewModeSwitch

It is occur in TC 9.0 ß5 x32 & x64

Code: Select all

Thanks for all the detailed information. I could reproduce it immediately.

[ghisler(Author)]

Hmm, that doesn't make much sense - you enable auto mode switches without and rules defined. TC then falls through to the default rule, which is "Set the default view mode".

For now I have disabled auto mode switching when going to other tabs and the list of view mode rules is empty. But I doubt that this is the real problem the thread started had...

[ts4242]

Fixed in TC 9 b6

There is something still need to fix, i have started new thread http://ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?p=313371

Yes sorry you are right. It's just the default view mode which is activated. I really hoped someone else could reproduce it finally.

The original report includes a program state where view mode no longer affects color and icon of the tab header - not even manually. It's really a different story.

[ghisler(Author)]

But how can I reproduce that problem from the original report? So far I failed to reproduce it.

[Lefteous]

It would be great if you provide some kind of debug log mode for this specific problem. I do have the problem on very different machines and installations and I think it's somehow connected to running a TC instance for quite some time.
