BETA: PowerArchiver 2023 - 22.10.02

@TBGBe:

You could try updating to the current version (10.01.03).

Tried that; it made no difference.

Incidentally, I mentioned before about the Explorer-like window when you open PA. In this, the left panel scrolls correctly, while the right panel exhibits the same backwards, line-at-a-time scrolling as when viewing the contents of an archive.

I like PowerArchiver otherwise, but this is annoying enough to make me look elsewhere. Maybe they’ll fix it, but my evaluation time runs out soon.

@JackH:

…not one page at a time as I have set.

Sorry, I misread that bit. :eek:
You are right - if I activate [ Mouse - Wheel - one screen at a time ] in Windows XP I get the same effect.:(

Choosing “number of lines” e.g. 20 works correctly.
Could you try that as a workaround?
@JackH:

Apart from a “nag” timer, the functionality is exactly the same (there is nothing disabled on evaluation expiry). Don’t buy the license until it works the way you want.

No; I’d rather be annoyed by one program than by all programs!

This is starting to make sense though… I’ll bet the number of lines to scroll is stored as -1 if it’s set to page-at-a-time, and PA (or a programming tool used by it) is interpreting this literally.

Yeah, I’ve been using shareware long enough to learn this the hard way.

we will take a look for one of the future updates… thanks.

Just a friendly reminder about this problem, which is not yet fixed in the 10.1 beta.:)

Thanks!

The issue will be finally fixed in Beta 2.

[JackH]

Thank you! I shall anxiously await its arrival.:)

[TBGBe]

One Screen at a time fixed - for me - in PA b2 (10.10.09).

[JackH]

So, where is it? I just downloaded , and got 10.10.08.

Thank you - looks like I need to start reading every thread here!

Scrolling does indeed work corrrectly in v10.10.09.

[TBGBe]

No, you could have waited for “official release announcment”.
But once you asked… :D
