[RC4] context menu disabled [4155]

Post by Dirhael »

So after installing the latest release candidate today I noticed some new odd behavior under certain conditions. What happens is that everything in the right-click context menu except "My Rating" & "Get Info/Bug" gets disabled. I seem to be able to reliably replicate the problem, so here's what you can try:

1. Select a node, any of them will do but I used "Album" for this test.
2. Enable the track browser and select one item from any of the 3 columns. For this test, just click a single album from the rightmost column.
3. Now click the "Show album art with details" button.
4. Click the cover of the album to select all the tracks, then try right-clicking one of the names or hit [shift]+[enter] to bring up the tag dialog. Notice how it doesn't do anything, or in the case of a right-click, most items are disabled?

This problem does not occur in any of the other view modes, nor does it happen as long as you show "All" in all 3 columns of the track browser.
It also works under the conditions I've detailed above provided that you first click a single track from the album before doing what I described in step 4.

Missing context menu

Dirhael,

I can't reproduce this (I tried following the exact steps 3 times). Anyone else?

I'll do a screencast of this problem for you then, as I think it will help better explain the problem :)

Ok, I've just uploaded it and you can watch what I described in my original post right here. Let me know if you need me to do some more tests :)

Selection problem in Album Art + Details mode

Got it. Simplest way to repro is to just right-click on a track in AA+Details, after the track browser has been used to choose an Artist.

Thx (adding to the todo list).

Hey, Dirhael, nice way to make a bug report! 8)
What software did you use to create it?

I used Camtasia Studio to make this one. It's a really nice product, but a bit to expensive I think. I won my copy so the price didn't matter for me, but if you look around you might find it cheaper :)
