Need people to test version 3.5.0.1

Post by antp »

I started to correct few bugs of version 3.5.0.
I modified quite heavily the way that the "modified" status of catalog (and current movie) is detected and managed, so there are maybe new bugs.
Since it goes much faster to find bugs when several people use the program, if some of you are not afraid of discovering bug you can replace your AMC 3.5 by this "new" version.
The important thing to check is that movie info that you enter/import/paste/etc. is always saved, same when switching to grid mode or changing grouping options. Also that a movie is not overwritten by another, etc.
So people that use this version should make backups often ;)

Here is the link:
http://www2.antp.be/antp/software/temp/amc3501.rar
simply replace your old ".exe"

The following bugs of v3.5.0 were corrected:
- when selecting several movies by holding Ctrl, it should not jump to previously selected movie
- imported file info (F7) should always be saved
- fullsize picture window (when clicking small picture) should be correctly adjusted to fit the screen when it is too large
- "Stop" button of scripting window was not enabled until the script was paused on a breakpoint, so it was not possible to stop the exection without setting a breakpoint (annoying when there is an infinite loop)

I'll correct other small bugs before releasing this version officially, but as I said I made few changes that should be well tested before being used by everybody.

At the same time, I added an option to show picture info in the fullsize picture window. The option is located in Tools -> Prefs -> Movie info -> "Show picture size etc.". It is disabled by default. It was a new feature of AMC 3.5 but lots of people found that "ugly" :hihi: (they're right, it was not really beautiful)

Update to correct few other bugs.
I think that now most of the bug reported for version 3.5 are solved.

- images export: now it exports only selection if asked
- if picture contents is not recognized, uses extension (useful for some pictures made by ACDSee that were working in v3.4 but not in 3.5)
- few corrections made in scripts window: when a script was not in the same folder than the other script its properties and options were not working correctly. Maybe I added new bugs by correcting that, so do not hesitate to notify me if you see something strange there.
- bug with number of new movies when using first available number
- Error when selecting a printing template after a selection of "fred.frf"
