[solved] Lister menu shown in full screen mode of image viewers

[petermad]

Lister menu shown in full screen mode of image viewers when dialogs has been opened.

Prequisite: A user defined encoding has to be defined for Lister.

To reproduce:

1. Put this line in the [Lister] section of wincmd.ini: UserEncodings=ISO Latin1 (28591)
2. Restart TC.
3. Use either Imagine (1.0.4 or 1.0.5wip) or SGViewer (1.9.2 beta) to view an image.
4. Switch to full screen (Alt+Enter).
5. Open any plugin dialog, press for example Ctrl+S.
6. Close the dialog again.
7. Now Lister menu is shown in the top of the screen.

7. Remove UserEncodings=ISO Latin1 (28591) from wincmd.ini and restart TC
8. Now the bug is gone!

Where can we find the beta version of SGViewer?

http://progman13.totalcmd.net/downloads/wlx_SGViewer_1.9.2_BETA.zip

I don't know if it is official in any respect, I got it from a personal email correspondance with the author (ProgMan13) about some bug fixing.

Confirmed. Adding "UserEncodings=" to the [Lister] section of wincmd.ini it's suffice to define just one character as the value to make the described issue appear. Any letter/number/sign will do except for the "Space" char, e.g. "UserEncodings=.".

Thank you for the link. It must not be official as I couldn't find it anywhere Googling it.

Also confirmed on the bug.

[petermad]

it's suffice to define just one character as the value

That's my experience too.

[ghisler(Author)]

I can confirm that too, but you will have to live with it. Why?

1. There is no official full screen mode in Lister. It's done by the plugin, so the plugin has to handle it correctly if it wants to do that.

2. Lister refreshes the menu when you switch to it. I tried it when the menu is opened, but this doesn't work, so I had to do it when lister is activated (because the user may have changed the wincmd.ini manually, or change the options in another copy of Lister). When TC refreshes the menu, it's redrawn by Windows, that's probaly why it appears.

But why only if there i a UserEncodings= statement in wincmd.ini

[ghisler(Author)]

See point two of my explanation. It's the updating of the menu with the user-defined encodings when you switch to Lister (which happens when you close the settings dialog).

[petermad]

which happens when you close the settings dialog

Thanks, now I understand

Wouldn't it be possible to NOT let TC update the menu when Lister is in a mode (4, 6 or 7) where the Encoding item is disabled anyway - Lister must know what mode it is currently in when it is switched to, I guess?

[ghisler(Author)]

Yes, that could be done - but then the update has be done at a later time, maybe when the menu is re-enabled. I will check that.

Thanks!
