XY64: UI corrupted after using floating preview

Post by JohnM »

After browsing a bunch (100+) of graphics files and using floating preview (#178) on them, XY's UI becomes corrupted (see example image).

Moving the window around and clicking inside it hints that the UI is still intact but just the display is affected.

Edit: It just happened again. I had been browsing some more graphics files (using #178 via a script), but was actually triggered after using 7-zip to unpack somefiles into a folder. (see new example). I opened a zip file with 7zip and then dragged the contents of the zip a folder. It looks like the "Replace or Skip files" dialogue was displayed.

After killing and restarting XY, the same operation worked fine.

Currently, no bugs are being fixed at TB. Let's wait for the next release, which I hear will bring many improvements, and see how it goes.

I know you are aware of this bug and would just like to add that the garbled graphics do affect the Windows Taskbar as well (I added the orange rectangles for privacy reasons):

Whatever is causing the XYplorer surface to get corrupted, it also corrupts a Windows component or the graphics driver. The Taskbar corruption remains when I close and restart XYplorer (until I force Windows to re-draw the Taskbar). It happens infrequently and can therefore not be replicated.

I've seen that with the side window preview with heavy preview activity. After some time the display distorts and locks up. Restart solves it, though inconvenient.
