B/W Styler v1.01 Glitch
Running in WinXP
When B/W Styler is in Photography Mode, the first list box titled "Film" does not drop properly. All of the other list boxes behave correctly.

I think the problem occurs if the B/W Styler window is too close to the buttom of the screen. In that case the drop down menu is displayed towards the top of the screen, because the list is too long. To select an item from the drop down menu you need to keep the mouse button pressed down and only release it after selecting the item.
There is nothing I can do about it. That's how Windows handles it. I could only remove some of the items from the drop down menu. But I don't think anyone would want that.

You are correct Harald. If I move the B/W Styler window to the very top of the screen, the list box opens properly. Or, if I maximize B/W Styler by double clicking on the Title Bar letters it works. However, when in the non-maximized mode, B/W does not "remember" to open at the very top of the screen at next use.
Also, the first time I maximized it, I couldn't get it to unmaximize. I had to delete the BWStyler.ini file to get this to work. I must have had a corrupted .ini file? Maximize/unmaximize works fine now.

I am having a new problem with B/W Styler 1.01: In either Paint Shop Pro XI or Photoshop Elements 5, the second time I try to use the plugin, the adjustment screen on the right side of the plugin becomes completely garbled. This was not a problem on the previous versions of the plugin.
Has anyone else experienced the same problem?

Yes, I've seen the same thing happen, though not every time, and in my case with Serif PhotoPlus 10.
The only solution seems to be to close the application, reopen it and the B/W Styler Screen becomes ungarbled.
I've just been able to reproduce the problem: open the app, open a picture, use B/W Styler to adjust, click OK and accept adjustment, decide that more adjustment is necessary, reopen B/W Styler, the "adjustment" area of the display becomes totally unusable.
This does seem to be an unfortunate bug.

hexaguano: B/W Styler would need to remember the screen coordinates to open at the same position the next time. But B/W Styler does not do that. I can add that feature in a future update.
Brian Smith: Please redownload B/W Styler from the same link. I uploaded a fixed version in the meantime. You can simply install over the previous installation. hexaguano seems to already have the fixed version.

Harald, I still have the same problem as Brian Smith. Unfortunately, the link provided in the original email notification to me no longer works.HaraldHeim wrote:Brian Smith: Please redownload B/W Styler from the same link.

Please advise how I may download the fixed version.
Many thanks.
Thanks for considering this. Having to hold down the drop down list arrow to select is kind of a "kludge".HaraldHeim wrote:hexaguano: B/W Styler would need to remember the screen coordinates to open at the same position the next time.
