In .0612 with an item sel, switching from a different tab to Properties the apply attributes buttons are always visible.

In .0612, once the Info Pane is visible it does not go away.
To repro, after pressing <F12> the first time the Info Pane appears: After pressing <F12> again: Update: after stretching the window: Update: the red dirt appears to be gone.

Also, switching from any tab to the Properties tab, shows a pair of buttons even though nothing has changed:
Clicking on another file/folder and the buttons disappear.

The preview box from .0604 flashes on and off at XY .0612 startup. F12 opens the info panel and then it will never go away.

You can close the panel if you switch to one of the non updated tabs, ie Meta/Tags/Raw View/Preview

The red stuff is gone, good! Now I will make those flaws in the logic go away.
