Rapid Flashing Previews After Slideshow Closes
« on: April 23, 2019, 10:24:14 AM »
Upon closing slideshow's in PM Plus beta the photos in the contact window rapidly open and close alternating between different photos with blank selected windows doing the same. It is reproducible here. I have screen shots if interested. Catalog is on OneDrive for some reason.

i7-8086K Desktop, 16GB RAM, Win 10 & 27" monitor

I'd like to see your Photo Mechanic log.  In Photo Mechanic go to the Help menu and choose "Reveal Support Data..." and moments later a Windows Explorer window will come forward with the zipped log file selected.  Use the 'Attachments and other options' link when you're composing your reply to this message and there you'll be able to upload your zipped PM log file.   Screenshots would be helpful too.  You can attach them in the same manner.

Thanks,

-Kirk

Warren, I don't see any zipped log file, and there is only one screen shot, please try again.

Thanks,

I thought my 4 files would be uploaded at once but apparently not. Here's my log file.

I think I sent you one screenshot twice - here's the third one. The Preview Photos alternate rapidly on the screen. Hard to explain...

I had this happen too. I shut down and re-started PM6+ and it opened a gallery without flashing.

This also happened to me when I first did a keyword selection, but it only happened once. I planned to make a video screen capture if it happens again.
