Dialog box moving on image switch


Recommended Posts

  1. Open a couple of images in APh, so they are in separate tabs
  2. Bring up a dialog box, say Filters/Apply Image...
  3. Switch to the other image
  4. Switch back

The dialog box now has moved up the screen. Repeat steps 3 and 4 and it happens again...

Hi Dave,

I'm seeing a flash where the dialog box appears to one side but it lasts a second and goes back to where it should be.

If I recall, don't you have a slightly unusual monitor setup with different DPI settings? Could you remind me?

Philips 4K 40" above. This is the primary screen.

Benq 23" below.

(The Philips is vertical against wall and Benq tilted away like a laptop -- very practical arrangement)

Edit as described was on Benq.

Here's clip of both screens at once:

Ah not so unusual! I've just tried this setup using two 4k monitors (different sizes with different dpi) and I still cannot repo it. I'll have a go on a few other setups when I can. We definitely don't want the dialog to be getting cut off by the edge of the monitor...

Tried it on MS Surface. Getting the flash of the box going elsewhere (up and diagonally left) before reappearing in its allotted location (this alone looks kludgey). Looks like there's a bit of code that's trying to move it somewhere and another bit that repaints in back where it should be.

Possibly related to two images being of different size?

...also there seems to be one location for a dialog box, even when there are multiple images. Put up say three images in separate tabs. Have a dialog box in each. Move one, then click on tab of another. The dialog box of the switched-to tab moves to the location of the dialog box just moved in previous tab.
