Improper Database minimization?

I’m not sure this is a bug, so I’m reporting it here, rather than the bug report section.

When I open the local database from OUTSIDE the playout and open the synchronize dialog, the database remains maximized in the background as I import files to folders. So good, so far.

However, when I launch the database from the playout shortcut WITHIN the playout and open the Synchronize dialog, the Sychronize remains maximized but the database completely minimizes (exposing the playout). If I then minimize the playout, the database will stay maximized when I import.

Does this make sense? A bug perhaps?

I’m using the latest snapshot before the 3.1.2 release.

Thanks and regards, Alec M

I have noticed this before. Looks like some sort of Delphi bug.

It’s indeed a Delphi bug. Actually, the database window is not hiding, but the playout window is pushing itself in between the database window and the newly created dialog.

There is a workaround, which I applied, and it works pretty well now for most dialogs. One exception is all open/save file dialogs, which will still bring the playout window to the front.

The fix will be included from Build 804 on.

Very Good Torben… Thank you for your attention to this matter :slight_smile:
