Quick View (sometimes) shows wrong file when zooming thumbnails

Post by *funkymonk »

TC 10.51rc2 x32 dark/light @ Win10x64

Hi,

I have assigned

Code: Select all

[Shortcuts]
C+*=cm_ZoomIn
C+/=cm_ZoomOut
to quickly change thumbnail size by keyboard.

Here is the problem:
  1. Right: Go to a folder with images and switch to thumbnail view
  2. Open QuickView in left panel (I use imagine 1.1.4 or sgviewer 1.9.3.1)
  3. Right: "Slowly" change thumbnail size by keyboard (i.e., *do* allow TC to update the GUI after each change) --> all fine
  4. Right: "Quickly" change thumbnail size by keyboard (i.e., *do not* allow TC to update the GUI after each change) --> BUG:
    The right panel keeps the current file active (which is fine) but the QV panel sometimes shows another file (bug).

Not confirmed. Does this happen with specific file types? And how are they displayed (plugin)?

Meanwhile I tried with a completely fresh TC 10.51rc2.

I have just added the keyboard shortcuts (no other config changes, no plugins).
I have tried with several folders that contain 50 - 1000 image files (mainly camera photos but also other files of various types).

The problem as described in the OP still exists (even with TC's internal image viewer).

But I found out two things:
  1. It happens more frequently on a 4k display (3840x2160) and much lesser on a FHD display. And it also seems to happen more frequently as long as the thumbnails are "relatively" small. Maybe it is a problem with the time it takes to refresh the UI at a higher resolution?
  2. When I move TC from the 4k to the FHD monitor, the active file (in thumbnail view) stays the same. But when I move TC from FHD back to 4k, the active file sometimes changes.
    (This reminds me of the bug reported here: https://www.ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?t=77424)
    If the active file changes, the QV panel still shows the previously active file (i.e., the one that should still be active) but not the one that is active.

It could be happening when the number of thumbnails in a line changes. Unfortunately I couldn't reproduce it so far, so unfortunately I can't fix it, sorry.

Hm. Ok.
I will keep an eye on it and post more details if I can find out more.

Has anyone else seen this effect?
