XYplorer Beta Club

I'm not sure about the bugginess of this. What would you have expected instead? It looks like at some point the FVS settings leaked into the "normal" settings. But there can be a situation when there are no "normal" settings available, in that case the last FVS settings have to be taken as the new "normal" ones.

In settings I enabled "Apply list styles globally" and disabled "Remember list settings per tab".
So I would expect one global settings for folders without FVS.
But if I open folder without FVS in new tab, then there is applied unexpectedly FVS from previously closed tab

That global setting must come from somewhere. XY only stores the settings that are active in the current tabsets. If no "normal" setting exists during the session, then it cannot be applied.

Ok, so this is a feature and you don't see it as a bug.
Maybe I should give up FVS...

Have you tried to set a default FVS for such cases?

BTW, I could not reproduce the issue using your steps.

Default FVS without auto save didn't fix it but is good workaround.

Here is gif that shows the problem

OK, that helped. It's crucial to open the tab in the background. I'll look into it...

Well, it was a bug! Fixed in next beta.

Hi Don, this seems to be in some ways closely tied to the topic here viewtopic.php?p=179109#p179109 where we were relocating a background tab that has a different FVS than its destination, the FVS of the original tab location is used in lieu of the FVS of the destination location. So when we relocate the background, the relocation takes place, but it inherits the FVS view of the original tab as opposed to the FVS of the destination (i.e., in my case the destination is the "home" of the tab with a different FVS than the subs folders). At the time you said that could be fixed but you were knee deep in X64.

Good point, fixed in next beta.

Hi Don, v22.00.0030 isn't using the FVS for the destination folder on SC tab("relocate") for a background tab.

- My G:\Wallpaper\1920x1080 folder has a FVS with a view thumbnail #3 which for me is set at 240x240. I use zoom-to-fill pictures (a folder.jpg in each subfolder) to achieve the view shown below in the first capture.

- All my subfolders under G:\Wallpaper\1920x1080 (e.g., G:\Wallpaper\1920x1080\Mountains) have a FVS with thumbnail #2 set at 240x135 (16x9 like my monitor ratio).

- So when I run SC tab("relocate", $home, $i); in a script where $home is the tab's home and $i the tab index and the last "path" used on that tab was a subfolder like "G:\Wallpaper\1920x1080\Mountains", it's relocated to "G:\Wallpaper\1920x1080" correctly, but unfortunately it's in the thumbnail #2 view instead of the saved FVS of thumbnail #3 as you can see by the captures below. If the current folder happens to be in that tab which has the different FVSs, of course it's fine because it's the foreground tab.

Well, you could have mentioned that you are talking about scripting...

Fixed in next version.

Yes sorry about that Don. Unfortunately I assumed you knew. I have a script I have set as a CEA so that it runs if I double click on white in the list pane. It does a couple of things: closes all tabs beyond my normal last locked tab and sends all tabs to their home location.
