Launching PDF-XChange Viewer & Report a Problem

Post by DClark »

Build 41.1 and 41.2, absolutely fresh install of Windows XP SP3.

Launching applications sends window (program) to background. Tried on 4 machines and happens on all of them.

For example, if I have Word open but not maximized, then open a PDF from my Desktop, Word stays in front while PDF-XXchange Viewer is "behind" on the desktop.

Anyone else report this bug? Also, the report a bug feature doesn't seem to work anymore.

Thanks,

Dan

not sure if it is a 'bug' but yes, the Taskbar icon just flashes but the Viewer doesn't come to the top.

I encountered the same problem.

Workaround: Disable the splash screen during startup!

Edit -> Preferences -> General Options: Disable "Show Splash Screen"

Any word on whether or not this will be fixed in a future build? Really want to push this out to our user base however am unable to due to this issue.

Happy to see the printing and form issues were resolved, just need this one other little item taken care of.

Thanks,

Dan

I know no one responded to this, however build 41.3 seems to address the launching issue. Haven't had to report a bug yet so I am unsure on that one.

Thanks,
