Thanks for the information, but I am not looking for some workaround. I reported this because I consider it as a bug of newer versions.

By the way, your description is not really correct. Whole window is not "refreshing". That was with older versions, but with newer ones whole window is disappearing. I think this is something which is not very well realized, especially because this process is not immediate, so it reminds to some critical errors when program totally vanished. Maybe it should display a message like: "Skin is loading. Please wait..."

I can confirm, but this is probably because when the new skin is loaded, the whole window is refreshed and the tree node has the active focus.

I don't remember if 1190 closed and refreshed the whole window like the latest ones do or not. (I don't change skin often)

As a work around, you can right click the files, or use tab to set the focus back to the main track window.

Here are steps to reproduce the problem:

1. select several tracks in the main tracklist (note a number of selected tracks in the status bar);
2. go to Tools/Options/Skin and choose another skin;
3. selected tracks are still selected (as it should be), but Auto-Tag from Filename, Auto-Organize Files and probably some another options are disabled as there are not any selected track, although the status bar still displays the number of selected tracks correctly.
4. if you try Edit/Properties, nothing is happening, although it is not disabled as it is when none track are selected.

Works correctly in 1190.
