Build 4001 seems solid.

-Disappearing renamed files appears to be fixed.
-"JournalMode=Off" appears to improve performance of thumbnail creation.

There are still many annoying issues, but I will not bother Laura with bug reports or complaints.  TP10 is what it is, Laura knows the issues and they will get tended to or not as Cerious deems fit.

Cheers,

ThumbsPlus v7-v9 Questions / Can't uninstall TP9 after TP10 install

« on: 2015-07-16 08:09:44 »

I had the same issue.  I deleted the following manually:

-Entries in start menu and if present the desktop icon and unpin from taskbar.

-The folder "C:\Program Files (x86)\ThumbsPlus9".

-The "9" files from "C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\ThumbsPlus" that are not used.

-If you are feeling adventurous, delete ThumbsPlus9 registry entries using regedit (although these leftover entries seem to have no deleterious effects).

I have not reinstalled TP9 so no way to test.  However, has anyone else built a corresponding SQLite database from scratch in TP9 and then in TP10 to compare sizes?  Is there a way to determine if row size has increased in TP10?

ThumbsPlus v7-v9 Questions / Moving files

« on: 2015-07-11 08:50:49 »

> I understand that files are either moved or copied.  When I drag and drop files I expected automatically to move (copy)the file and remove the copy in the original position.  I could do this in V7 but am now trying to use V9 (I know many of you are on V10).  Could some one point out what I am missing to accomplish this?

> Thanks Jim

Jim,

Here is my experience with TP9 and TP10.  When dealing with a normal thumbnail display, dragging and dropping will move the file to the destination and delete it from the source.  When dealing with find-similar or by-name search results, dragging and dropping will COPY the file to the destination and NOT delete it from the source.  I use right-click and chose move to actually move the file.  Not sure why it works this way.

I hope this helps a bit.

Cheers,
Gary

ThumbsPlus v7-v9 Questions / Configuration of status bar not saved in tp10 (3960)

« on: 2015-07-08 09:47:20 »

This problem exists in TP9 as well.  The view settings are stored in the file Thumbs9.vconfig.  When I upgraded to TP10 the corresponding Thumbs10.vconfig file was not created so I copied Thumbs9.vconfig as Thumbs10.vconfig.

With TP10 closed, edit the Thumbs10.vconfig file and look for this line (note the line likely will have all or almost all values set to "=1"):



The "655nn" values correspond to each option.  (Previously, I had right clicked the view status bar and counted the options to relate the option to the "655nn" value.) Through trial and error I got the options set the way I wanted.  Off is "=0", On is "=1".  Save the file and when you start TP10, the view status options should be set the way you want them.

I hope this helps.

Cheers,
Gary

Ah, I did not notice the example was with the Access database.  Like you I use the SQlite database, so I'll go with your findings and not reinstall TP9.  Thanks!

Yikes.  I uninstalled TP9, but I think I'll install it and give this a try.  Good catch.  BTW, I f'in love the subject line!

Daan,

Could you possibly use your influence to get Cerious to fix the serious bugs in build 3950?  Since Laura does not have time to read the forums, maybe you could inform her of the items we've encountered?

Kindest regards,
Gary

ThumbsPlus v7-v9 Questions / What is error code 5774 / #000000c9

« on: 2015-05-31 08:43:47 »

I use 9 only because I've exceeded the 2GB database limit of 7.  I use 7 for video files as 9 will not create proper thumbnails nor find dupes with video files.  The separate window concept of 9 is totally frustrating.  Tab no longer works to go between panes.  Panes lose focus.  Dragging between panes is a pain.  Ugh.

Same error I got when trying to resize a picture.  Ugh.  I went back to build 3946.  I swear these people do not test this software.

Enough said.  (Edit:  the files do not have a thumbnail in the database.)

What a damn joke.

ThumbsPlus v7-v9 Questions / Stop wasting my time!!!

« on: 2015-05-28 08:42:09 »

Build 3950 has introduced new bugs ... like crashing when spacing thru list of images without thumbnails and a video file is encountered.  Resizing and saving some jpg files squawks about being unable to save some stupid thing to the file (NEVER seen this one before).  The view windows no longer observes the theme colors for toolbar and status bar.  No telling what else lurks.

Other than the toolbar thing, which is a nice solution, nothing else is fixed.  Dragging files from thumbnail window to folder window is still a giant crap shoot, no status indicators, no ALT+n sorts, no counter on Task tab, etc, etc, etc.

I think Cerious has completely lost control of this mess.
