Navigator window scrolling problem
joesobel:
I'm having a problem with the Navigator window in version 4.4.3.
When scrolling the window to access a different folder, Navigator has a mind of its own and jumps back to the original location before I can select a new folder to view. As I scroll up or down the in the window it keeps moving back as I drag and release the slider. Any ideas on the cause and a fix??
I also have an unrelated question. Is it possible to preview pictures side by side from two different folders at the same time?
Thanks,
Joe Sobel

No, but I'll talk to the engineer who works on the Navigator on the Windows version. Does the Favorites do the same thing to you?

Yes. You just open the first folder. Then when you open the second folder, instead of double-clicking it, right-click on it and choose "Open in current Contact Sheet" from the Photo Mechanic sub-menu.
Now you will have both folders open at once. You can use the Preview window to view the first image of the pair that you're interested in, and then put the Preview window into one of the two-up modes (type H or V to do this quickly...) Then click on the second image in the thumbnail gallery at the bottom of the Preview window.

Kirk, thanks for the quick reply. I actually haven't set up any favorites yet, but I'll set some up and see if it behaves the same way.
Thanks for the info on using the the preview window as well.

Kirk, I set up some favorites and found that I have the same problem there as well.

Kirk,
I installed the latest version of PM (4.4.3.1) over my earlier version to see if that would get rid of the problem, but I still had the problem. I then uninstalled PM with Add/Remove programs and installed 4.4.3.1 again and still had the problem. So I uninstalled PM with the Remove Photo Mechanic app and installed it again. I still have the same problem with both the favorites and navigation windows. In the favorites window both the vertical and horizontal scroll bars dissappear and reappear constantly.
Please let me know if the engineer comes up with any fixes.
Thanks,
Joe
