Deleting selected / tagged items

[Dreamer]

- tag 2 files
- create a new folder
- select the new folder
- press Delete button
- confirmation dialog is shown with the buttons "selected files" * , "tagged files", "cancel"
- click the cancel button
= selected folder is deleted!

* it should be selected items IMO, perhaps even "selected item(s)" / "tagged file(s)"

BTW Key shortcut is missing for "Cancel" button (the same as for Selected files / Tagged Files (S / T)).

XnView 1.96.1, Windows Vista SP1.

I see a yes/no delete dialog immediately after the 'cancel' step. Is it seen on Vista? The higlight is on 'Yes' though (which is opposite of what I'd expect following 'cancel').
I usually see default delete actions always on the negative or cancel on other platform. That prevents accidental deletion, when any dialog is wanted.

I don't use any dialog for deleting in Windows, so I have no dialog, but - when I press Delete, then click Cancel, nothing should be deleted. It's a clear bug for me.

While this is being looked at, I think it is important for tag users to use confirm option: Options...>General>File Operations>[x]Confirm file delete

Hmm.. yes, but it's not needed to have two confirmation dialogs, since it's not possible to disable confirmation dialog (to use selected/tagged files) in the latest version.

Anyway, no file/folder should be deleted when I click the "Cancel" button. I think it's a danger bug - added to ""Must fixes" for next release".

Still not fixed in v1.96.5!

Fixed in 1.97 beta 1, thanks, Pierre.
