gate1975mlm Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 (edited) In Windows 7 Build 7000 and 7022 when you click on the start menu then All programs why does the last program folder at the bottom of the list disappear and leave a little space between that line right above the Back button? I don't like this because sometimes when I open all programs and my mouse is over the blank space the scroll wheel on my mouse does not move the scroll bar until I have my mouse over the closest program folder. It did not do this in Windows Vista and was better for it. To test make sure you have enough things in your All programs menu. And leave the scrollbar at the top. Then open All programs and watch how the last program folder show for like a second then closes causing the blank space. I hope Microsoft can just make this little change so it does not do that anymore. Is this by design or is it a bug?

Just to be clear you said you do not have this issue. Are you sure you understand what I am talking about?

rakeshishere Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Definitely must be a bug but i just couldn't reproduce this on my side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gate1975mlm Posted February 12, 2009 Author Share Posted February 12, 2009 (edited) Definitely must be a bug but i just couldn't reproduce this on my side Is your All Programs full and when you click on All Programs is the scrollbar at the top? Because this is when I see it. Can you check please? You should see one of your program folders Apear then disappear very fast. Its not a huge deal but I just don't remember this happening in Windows Vista. I would take a video of what is happening but the program I use Snapit cause a "com surrogate" error when recording a video.

Brandon Live Veteran Posted February 12, 2009 Veteran Share Posted February 12, 2009 I see it on the beta build. The very edge of the last item appears for an instant and then get displaced by the separator. Looks like a tiny bug/glitch that it is showing there are at all, the separator should show up at the same time as the list (or at least the last item should never draw). It may only show up in specific layouts or something. Don't know if it's been fixed in later builds, I'll watch for it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool I new I could not be the only one seeing this :) I know its not a huge bug or anything. But like you said it looks to be a glitch of some kind and I wonder if Microsoft knows about it?

mad_onion Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 well what build are you running on your laptop? :ninja: oh btw brandon windows 7 is awesome if I haven't said before. an issue which I had in vista that still seems to exist in 7 is that explorer creates thumbnails for files such as pdf, doc and ppt at first and then just stops doing it after a while. is it some kind of ifilter issue? on 7 32bit btw.

Brandon Live Veteran Posted February 12, 2009 Veteran Share Posted February 12, 2009 well what build are you running on your laptop? :ninja: Monday's :) oh btw brandon windows 7 is awesome if I haven't said before. an issue which I had in vista that still seems to exist in 7 is that explorer creates thumbnails for files such as pdf, doc and ppt at first and then just stops doing it after a while. is it some kind of ifilter issue? on 7 32bit btw. Hmm... have you reported this through any of the official feedback channels? It wouldn't be IFilters, those don't have anything to do with thumbnails. However, thumbnails are generated by thumbnail handlers that are usually installed by the application that supports that file type. Also I assume you're referring to the real thumbnail images (and not icons), which actually show a preview of the document. For most Office documents, thumbnails aren't actually enabled by default, and they need to be enabled in the Save As dialog. I assume they're off by default because they make the file larger. At least I know that's true for Word docs (I think PowerPoint saves thumbnails out by default). PDFs I'm not sure about, I'm guessing Adobe or whateve reader program you use is generating those. Do you have any problem with image file types? If so, it could be a problem with the thumbnail cache. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon could you check if the isssue here https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=724530 also got fixed in your build of Winodws 7?

mad_onion Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 image thumbnails work fine, it's not that big a deal. tbh i doubt it will be resolved I think the things that cause it are quite complex. but i will try to clear the thumbnails in case the cache is broken.

When you click on All Programs it looks like the text flickers or something. No question about it this is some kind of bug/glitch. Just compare it to Windows Vista and you will see that Windows 7 has a glitch when clicking on All Programs under the start menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
