Error with Quick View & change drive

Hi,

I just had a problem with TC using the quick view:

Invalid floating point operation.
Please report this error to the Author, with the description of what you were doing when this error occured!
Continue execution? Y/N

Here is how to reproduce it:
CTRL+Q (Activate quick view)
TAB (To change panel)
ALT+F2 (To open the drive list on the left panel)

and with the ALT+F1 nothing append (even the drive list do not open)

- Using the mouse does not give the problem.
- Using the keyboard but when the quickview panel is not selected is also working fine.

True, the same problem at my computer.

This has properly something to do with the error you get in lister, if you update a modified file with F2.

Sorry, cannot reproduce it! alt+F2 does just nothing. What is shown in quick view when you do this
- plain text
- a plugin
- multimedia?

I've used Ctrl+Q on a folder.

Same here. It seems to occur only on a folder, not on files.

This morning I got different strange issue with quick view.

And at the end it was happening with files & folders. After a reboot it's indeed only with folder.

(2djk: Thank you for pointing me to this thread. I missed it

)

I noticed the same thing when Quick viewing a folder. Only I detected it while pressing just F2.
It seems to be solely raleted to the F2 key. Because CTRL+R does not cause a error, while F2 does. And F2, SHIFT+F2, CTRL+F2 and ALT+F2 all cause the error.

i can reproduce this floating point error in the lister:
1. Open a text file
2. Edit the file with an editor and insert somewhere a line
3. Refresh the Lister with F2
4. Floating point error occurs

Hope this helps

Hi CoolWater,

Did you already installed the latest beta version 6.01b2.
Normally this is now solved.

Yes, this is one of the bugs corrected in TC 6.01.
