Phocus 1.1 'Viewer in separate window' problem

[jeff.grant@pobox.com]

Using 1.1 with a second monitor, when I select 'Viewer in separate window' the thumbnails expand to fill where the viewer was but the separate viewer doesn't appear on the second monitor. When I expose on the primary monitor, the viewer is there but I can't select it. I keep on getting the thumbnails window.

Anyone else with the same issue? I also tried reporting this to Support@hasselblad.com but their server bounced my emai, all two lines of it as being too large .

Working fine here Jeff, forgive me for stating what might be the obvious but you realise you need to drag it across to the second monitor right? On my setup I have menu bars and viewer on the right hand monitor and thumbs on the left...

I understand that. Nick but I can't ever get the viewer to show up once I select it. I show all active windows, select the viewer and the thumbnails come active. Bugger me, now it's stopped showing thumbnails. I think I'll just reinstall it. Any magic other libraries that I need to delete?

Hi Jeff
Phocus is just the app and a plist (preference file) maybe try just the prefs first?

Hi Nick, too late. I've just downloaded and reinstalled but it's still the same. How do I clobber the preferences file please. My thumbnails have now disappeared with the exception of a few funny bits of colour in the top of the thumbnail viewer. It looks like all 55 images are scrunched up. I can still move from one image to the next, I just have no idea what is coming up next.

OK, I just found the preferences, deleted them and now I'm back up and running. I didn't think that this was meant to happen with Mac. That was like being back in the Windows world.

Thanks, Nick.

Crazy!
Prefs are in user/library/preferences and are called dk.hasselblad.phocus.plist. I'm thinking your prefs are corrupt, please report back.

Deletion fixed it. Thanks Nick.
