Buttons on Quick File View window

[RalphM]

Code: Select all

v7.30.0009 - 2008-07-04 11:03 
    * Quick File View: Slightly changed the headers layout and fixed 
      some glitches. 

I thought yesterday that the Cancel button was a glitch as well, but since it's still there I guess it has some use sometime.
Can anybody enlighten me?

If the edit field would not be readonly it would be enabled. I found it better to keep the OK at its position than to remove Cancel and shift OK to the right. There might come the day, when I allow editing and saving a viewed file...

EDIT: you are right. A disabled Cancel button makes user wonder... not good. Removed it.

I've been a bit behind on some things here ( ) and this is one of them...I'm wondering if it would be possible to have QFP exit on the same key combo that invoked it, such as F11?

Why? Because when I'm on an image file, F11 toggles Full Screen on/off, but when I'm on a TXT file, I can use F11 to begin it, but to exit, I have to (as I see it) use "OK" button or "X" which is a bit inconvenient as often requires extensive mouse movement.

Now, even if this becomes an Editor function, this key could be used as cancel function as one would get via "X".

Hit ESC!

Actually I had the same idea weeks ago but it could not be implemented (easily enough).

I've tended to avoid using that key because in some app's I've encountered, it exits out of the appl, so I'm a bit hesitant to use it now, even when it doesn't have that effect.

It was just a thought that having it as toggle would be easiest for user, though it may not be for coding.
