solved [TC 11.00b7] Search dialog for Folder Tabs / History list opens on wrong screen.

Post by *petermad »

I have reported this here: https://ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?p=434561#p434561 but since it might be unrelated to that topic I am making a separate bug report here:

I can reproduce this on 32bit TC only

If TC is opened in my secondary (right side) monitor, opening the Search dialog for Both the Folder Tabs list or for the Directory History list opens it up on the other (main) monitor completely outside the area that TC covers. https://tcmd.madsenworld.dk/searchdialogdualscreenx86.png

The vertical position or the Search dialog seems to be correct.

I can only test this under Windows 7, because that is the only computer where I have to screens attached

That's odd, I'm using code to determine the current screen and move the dialog there.

I don't have the problem in the previous betas, so something has been changed in beta7.

Confirmed fixed in TC 11.00b8 :-) except the bug was for 32bit TC not 64 as noted in history.txt

Is it's "normal" position for Search dialog?

I'm used to seeing it at the bottom of TC window.

Thread was moved to Fixed bugs by Stefan2.
Moved the thread back to the bug reports forum because of the error in HISTORY.TXT.
