Copy/Move Dialog

[jpo]

Hi!

The copy and move progress dialog dissapears to the background if one switches to another program, and it is not possible to bring it to front again. As it is not possible to select other files with the mouse, the dialog should be blocking and staying in foreground, or the issue with the mouse should be fixed and the copy dialog should have an entry in the windows bar (or whatever it's called in english).

P.S. I use FreeCommander 2007.10 on Win XP Prof. Ger. SP2

I can not reproduce such problem. For me copy dialog appears above main window. If I switch to another program and than back to FC, I can always see the copy dialog.

I confirm that.
The same config, but in english

How do you start the copy operation, with F5?

[vladi]

I can't explain.
Just sometimes does that.
I'll be more carefull next time and tell you.

I can't confirm it either.

FC 2007.10 and the latest beta, Win XP SP2.

I confirm the observation : sometimes dialog boxes go to the background,
behind the main window of FreeCommander, and are not accessible any more. The symptom is that FreeCommader does not react to any click or keystroke (because it's waiting for an answer in the -invisible- dialog box).
Among others "File exists", "in use" or such question boxes are affected.
Unfortunately I have been unable to reproduce the behavior on a voluntary basis, so I can't either say under which circumstances this occurs.

Oh, I remember this too, only "Restore" was working. Confirmed, but can't reproduce either (yet).

Edit: So I can reproduce it now, with the latest beta (301), also with default settings/no plugins, but in 2007.10a it's working good.

To reproduce:

- copy any large file
- minimize main FC window
- click the FC item in the taskbar to restore the window
= it doesn't work

Yes, it happens on any larger copy process (one big file, or multiple smaller).

I use drag & drop for copy the files.

I use F5.

Could you try 2007.10a please? It looks it has been fixed in this version.

I'm seeing the issue with 2007.10a (portable). In my case I did a shift-drag between panes. (local source, network dest) I saw the briefest flicker of the dialog. Happily, I was able to alt-tab the dialog back to the foreground. It only happens intermittently.
