17.60 Can't resize small toolbar icons

Post by krakatoa »

I just updated from version 17.40 to 17.60.

What a mistake! All of my toolbar buttons suddenly went from large to small making them very difficult to see :shock: . From the Help, I concluded the place to correct this was in the Tools/Customize Toolbar panel...mistake # 2. In 17.60, the Customize Toolbar is TOO TALL so I cannot see the 3 options at the bottom that I can see in 17.40: Large Icons, Toolbar can be scrolled, and Scrolled toolbar wraps :shock: . There is no apparent way to get to these buttons either (Mistake #3) :x .

When programming your dialog screens please take into account the reality that your users use various screen sizes and DPI so you can't assume just because it works on your PC it will always work on every one else's PC. I will have to remain on 17.40 until I see confirmation this bug has been rectified. Thank you/Danke.

Screenshot?
Which screen resolution do you use?

To be able to use 17.60 with large buttons you could modify the XYplorer.ini (after updating, saving your settings once AND closing XY)
Change
ToolbarLarge=0
To:
ToolbarLarge=1

That's only a workaround but I can't replicate that issue (from 17.40 to 17.60 and toolbar size changes)...

Customize Toolbar is too tall? Never heard that one before. Fix will come, of course. Please post your screen measurements and DPI settings, thanks.

I understand your edits to the ini file. I looked in the INI file and ToolbarLarge=1 was already set. I don't know why 17.60 reverted the setting back to 0? I always update to newer XYplorer versions from Windows Explorer with XYplorer closed.
