XYplorer doesn't remember inactive pane color
XYplorer doesn't remember inactive pane color
I'm having problem when i'm trying to change the color for the inactive pane. The color i set it to is working only until i restart XYplorer. When XYplorer is restarted it changes to the factory default color and i have to set it again.
I don't know if it's a bug or im doing something wrong, so any help is welcome.
As always thanks in advance.

Does saving the config (File > Save Settings) immediately after changing the color, help?

No, unfortunately not.

Which color are you setting it to?

The color code is shown in the previous image i've posted. The code is 000000.
I hope it helps.

Re: XYplorer doesn't remember inactive pane color
That's the cause of the problem. The value 0 (= hex 000000) is interpreted by XYplorer as "take the factory default value".
Solution: Take 010101 instead. You won't see the difference and it will stick.

Well, you could not know this. I admit it's a design weakness. But I did not come up with a good solution yet. Sorry for driving you crazy.

Re: XYplorer doesn't remember inactive pane color
That would work (and I do this in most cases) but these here are numeric data types for performance reasons. OTOH those decisions are from times when computesr were slower. So I might indeed revise them...

The issue is handled in v20.40.0006. Now you can use 000000.

You are awesome, thanks

@Don: I think a bug has maybe crept in since this change, now when running fresh, I get the inactive pane background in black, also in the config window the default color for TPT/location pins/locked tree is black now, although they are all still able to be reset to the old correct defaults.
