PMView Pro Forums _ PMView - Windows Technical Support _ double dotted issue

Posted by: Anonymous Nov 29 2001, 02:58 PM

Just installed XP. Tested PMView.
And.. the file open dialog doesn't show files that have 2 consequetive dots.
'myfile..jpg' remains hidden. Perhaps it's always been there, haven't tried yet.

Please fix.

This problem also seems to appear on other versions of Windows. It will be fixed in the next version.

The file mask matching is not good at all. For instance it cannot handle more complex filters like "*.*.*". I decided to rewrite the whole file matching routine (which actually dates back to PMView 0.86 [1995/96]).

You can expect all this to work correctly in PMView v2.32.
