PI1.5.6+Win XP Prof SP3: main menu is visually "disabled" [+]

[Yuriy Toropin]

Hi PI Team,

PI 1.5.6 + Win XP Prof SP3

When any modal dialog is shown in PI (examples are Select [Channel] Source Image called from LRGBCombination or STF Auto Stretch dialog from STF) the PI's main menu turns in "inactive" grey state (see screenshot, the main menu will remain the same after dialog will be closed).

The issue is - main menu doesn't redraw to expected "active" black (color) state when modal dialog will be closed. Will redraw correctly after mouse will be moved above it (on something like OnMouseAbove trigger or what is the correct name in Win API ).

Could you please fix this minor issue and trigger main menu update on close of Modal Dialogs?

PI Team, thanks a lot again for your impressive work!

Hi

Just to let you know this happens on the 64 bit vista version as well

Hi Yuriy and Harry,

Yes, I am aware of this issue. It is a problem with Qt's default style sheets on Windows (both XP and Vista) which I've been unable to fix so far. I'm working on it though.

You won't have this problem if you select one of the .NET styles (Window > GUI Style). They are very nice and work much better than default ones. They are the out-of-the-box styles for PI Windows versions since 1.5.6.

Sorry for this glitch!

Thanks Juan!
It works and I like .Net - Office style, but for XP ones it's the issue...
Regards,

PS: May be it will become obsolete with release of Win 7...

Good 'bug post' Yuriy, and thanks for the reply, Juan.

I have changed to the .NET GUI style, the problem has gone, and I am happier now.

Cheers,
