GUI askew on Windows 7 #15

Closed BGMcoder closed 8 years ago

BGMcoder commented 8 years ago

With a fresh install (just minutes now) I opened BrowserSelect. I think that the GUI is clipped off. You can see in my screenshot here that my browsers do, indeed appear (except for Maxthon and Greenbrowser, but I don't care so much about those), but there seem to be buttons below the icons that look like they are cut off.

I'm running Windows 7 Pro x64

that is weird, I can't reproduce it on my system. give me a few days to get access to a win 7 box to see if I can find out why it's doing that. do you have any specific themes or programs that modify looks of windows installed on your system?

zumoshi commented 8 years ago

image I've just tested v1.3.4 of BrowserSelect on a win7 x64 VM, and it doesn't seem to have any problems. even though there are not many browsers since it's a clean install, the "Always" button is not out of window boundary.

JeffGillman commented 8 years ago

I have also tested on Win7 x64, with the latest version of BrowserSelect, and with three browsers shown (Firefox, Chrome, IE) I do not experience any clipping. I then set my font size to 150%, and still could not reproduce the clipping issue.

BGMcoder commented 8 years ago

Hmm, no, I'm not using any special theme, and aero is on. I am using DisplayFusion, however because I have three monitors. I also have a Win7 VM - I'll try it on that and see how it goes and report back. Thanks for the attention.

BGMcoder commented 8 years ago

Okay, well, on my VM there was no clipping issue. Must be something on my workstation. I uninstalled and reinstalled it on the workstation and it has the same effect. Strange.

zumoshi commented 8 years ago

it's hard to fix it when I can't reproduce it myself, but I'll try to make a patch that makes the window size more generic rather than hard coded in pixels.

BGMcoder commented 8 years ago

Thanks; no rush for me however.

zumoshi commented 8 years ago

can you try this build ? BrowserSelect.zip (or alternatively compile from the source if you have VS set up, but since you said you don't have time i thought i should provide a compiled version)

BGMcoder commented 8 years ago

Perfect! (thanks for the binary)

zumoshi commented 8 years ago

so, the "Always" button is not clipped anymore? could you also verify that other windows also display correctly (e.g. settings, about, help , ...)

BGMcoder commented 8 years ago

Well, correct - that's what I meant by "Perfect". Nothing is clipped. Settings and About panels are all beautiful, the main window is not clipped at all. Although, in my opinion, I think the icons are rather large, being around 120px - I would use 64px, myself; but that's just my preference. It looks good!

zumoshi commented 8 years ago

thanks, i'll include this patch in the next release.
