Problem on using two windows of pdf xchange

Post by igorlima »

Hello!

In my workflow I use two windows of pdf xchange. Some documents are made to be opened in the first windows, other documents are made to be opened in the second window.

As I like to keep both windows always open, I toggled the options "Minimize to System Tray" and "Close to system tray" in the preference settings.

The problem is that I noticed that when both windows are opened and the second window has no documents in it when I close all the documents in the first window, the second window disappears. Not even in the system tray it goes.

But if I do the other way around (no documents on the first window and close all documents on the second window) that does not happen and I can keep both windows opened.

Why the first situation happens? If I'm only closing a document inside a window, why does the window that didn't even contained the document has to close too? , the "closing of the document" and the "closing of the window" shouldn't be two separated things?

I would like to keep both windows always opened regardless of where I'm closing the documents :(

Please see the video attached to this post. Hope it can illustrate better what I'm saying!

Hi, igorlima

Thank you for the report, This does appear to be a bug, and I can reliably reproduce it. I am just speaking with the Dev team on it now, and may be making a bug ticket, depending on its complexity shortly. If I do I will write back here to let you know.

Kind regards,

Hello, igorlima

My apologies for the lack of followup, At the time the Developer assured me that he had seen the issue and was working on the solution right away, so no ticket was made. I am just double checking with him now to find out if he has resolved the issue as of yet. If he has, the fix will be in the next release, and if he has not, I will be making a ticket to keep track of it for all of us.

Kind regards,
