(Preview like)Tiny H. - V. scroll-bar replica…

Post by Clo »

:) Good morning,

• Testing a wide image in MP 0.12, I suddently discovered this :

ImageImage   Image

• Well, I don't say that's useless, but unusable -at least for me- regarding the tiny size of that GUI item :

a. The thickness of the red-dashed cursor on the slider is only three pixels…Hard to catch. :( Five pixels should be better.
¤ On the #2 pic, one can see the vertical version, it's worse : Only two pixels thick.
- When I blow up the image (here it was ~400%) the slider is getting almost null, then null with a larger zoom factor…

b. The rabbet(*) is filled with a lot of variously coloured pixels, it seems they come from the current images
(in the case, BMP skins strips of mine)… :?:

c. When the mouse hovers the slider, I get prior a “hand” cursor with which I can move the slider
(using a magnifying glass), OK…
…which using it becomes a “Move” cursor Image that does nothing else, I wonder to hear what it's planned for…Image

• Please, try to improve that gad¦wid¦get… or is it a GUI lunacy ?

Perhaps in this case, the pane control must be hidden

Active Preview…

:) Hello !

• Testing further with higher¦wider images, I saw that the replicas are in fact the active preview¦thumb nail
which appears in View when the image is blown up by a certain percentage
making it overflows the screen at least for one dimension…
- With strips like I tested prior, that looks like on my pics above.

- When zooming in by a big factor, that thingy gets unusable.

- As far as I saw, it can't be hidden… :|
