UI odities

Post by jacky »

I'm having some "odities" recently, I'm using the new look, not sure if this is linked to it or not but I never experienced such a thing before.

I'm not sure why/when this happens, but it does so regulary : the List "loose" its border, and the two last rows (in pixel) aren't drawn, and if the last was a long one (with scrolliong) and the new one doesn't, they have "old info" -- not so clear, please see this picture :
Image

Each side should have 2 pixels I believe, one "blue" one white, but they're all white except for the bottom ones who somehow got "reminiscence" of the last longer List.
Sounds odd, because it should have been the white/blue border drawn there, but I forgot to actually check on the long List how it want down on the borderless List, maybe those two pixels where drawn with content instead. Probably, but I forgot to check. I will next time it occurs if I don't forget.

It's easy to "fix", I just need to force the drawing, eg. show/hide panel.

Yep, when theborder is gone it does paint data over the two pixels on the bottom where the border should be. Actually, when I scroll down that's all, but when i scroll up it doesn't "clear" first so it even gets mixed together, jere you got names mixed and what you can see on the icon is a little bit of the WinRAR icon from the item before the scroll :

PS: Seems to be the same thing Dirhael experienced, so new look, but not related to the View or OS (I'm XP).

I believe you, but you can't give me a way to reproduce this by any chance?

I'm afraid not. All I can say is that at some point, I'll switch back to XY and notice the border is gone... but I haven't found any kind of pattern no, sorry.

Not related, but this is just hapenning again and I already noticed it a few times before:

With the new visual style for Tabs, I sometimes get this :
Image

The hover effect works as expected only the orange bar stays even when the mouse pointer goes away! It's not the exact same as the active tab, but can be confusing a little still.

Clicking the active tab does nothing, but as soon as I click another tab then it's bck to normal.

Again though, I'm afraid I don't know how to reproduce it/what triggers it.

Yep, I had noted that too. And I think I fixed it now.

Well, it still happens to me. I think I've even found a way to reproduce it, but it's not something others can do like that (involve another app)

But I just installed the 0004 version, and then activate a tab, did a few things, then as I was to activate another tab I noticed it was doing it again...

That said, the other one (borderless List) I haven't seen no more since 0003!
