1357: Viewport is OffByOne

Post by therube »

1357: Viewport ... what else to say, oh, don't know...

(on an overflow)

when you arrow-key down the viewport
you cannot "access" the last entry shown

as in, cursor focus will always be viewport height (depth) -1

you can /see/ the last entry,
but you have to click down to "access" it
(& so once again you can /see/ the next entry, but cannot "access" it)


- oh, so this also why if (on overflow) you END [key], you (now)
see 2 whitespaces (vs. prior, only 1)


- similarly, say you are 1 line before end of viewport
(end of results list, such that 1 result is yet to come into focus)
& you rename a pair of files in the middle of viewport
on rename, viewport "jumps", & at that point
- while /selection/ has not changed
the viewport "jumped", now showing 1 whitespace


Off By One ;-)

Thanks for the issue report therube,

Does resizing the window fix the problem?

Could you please send a screenshot after pressing the down arrow to support@voidtools.com

Does this issue occur if you don't add a new tab?

No.
It only happens when you have Tabs visible.

I tend to keep static sizes, so not sure offhand.
Could you please send a screenshot after pressing the down arrow
And yet again, this is another issue where I see discrepancies in behaviors (between Everything on different systems), & I'm not sure why?
(System configurations are too alike, so I'm thinking it is not that. Perhaps it happens to be just dumb luck sizing?)

1. hi
2. scrolled down to "end" of viewport, cannot "access" the 3rd +999.gif
3. hit down-arrow, can now acess 3rd. 999.gif, but now cannot "access" +ccc.gif
4. & so it continues
5. extra whitespace at end of listing
(all above were with Tabs)
6. normal whitespace at end of listing (no Tabs)
7. normal down-arrow action, you /can/ access the final (fully displayed) item, as expected (no Tabs)
.

Thanks for the images therube,

The last item is partially visible.
(even though it looks fully visible -there's one pixel missing)

Resizing the window should fix the issue.
-or-
If you want to avoid resizing your window, consider making the tab height a multiple of your item height:
  • In Everything 1.5, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Advanced tab on the left.
  • To the right of Show settings containing, search for:
    tab
  • Select tab_high.
  • Set the value to: 23
  • Click OK.

I have no idea how you saw that.
Glad your eyes are better then mine.
Set the value to: 23
That did it, thanks :-).

consider making the tab height a multiple of your item height
Is that something related to listview_item_high= ?

Yes.
listview_item_high sets the listview item height in logical pixels.

In my case, both settings were at the (I suppose ?) default of 0.

The default for listview_item_high and tab_high is: 0

When set to zero, the height is calculated from the font height.
