Re: Norton GUI window flip-MAJOR BUG

From Known Issues with NIS 19.1

 

The window flip when clicking Performance does not occur when system is set to high DPI 

 

I also have this isue with no changing in DPI settings. However, when this happens if I put settings to 120% log off, put back to 100% and again log off/on than everything seems fine or, fliping will work

 

 

Windows 7 SP1 32-bit

1280x1024 (nvidia GForce 9600 GT 1GB)

Re: Norton GUI window flip-MAJOR BUG

Looks like resolution does not effect this. Simply enlarging your icons and text to %120 percent will disable the Flip UI animation. Someone in the office said this is by design, but does not make sense to me so I am going to write up a defect about and see what the devs have to say about it.

Re: Norton GUI window flip-MAJOR BUG

This is a bug and will be addressed, just wont be very soon. I know for sure the fix will not be in the next patch that is released.

Re: Norton GUI window flip-MAJOR BUG

I put the text to 112% and it still didn't flip. Can you please provide a fix for this as the problem I had with the taskbar icon not showing was fixed by switching back and forth from 125% to 100% then to 125% again. Just bought this last wweek-end and didn't expect to have these bugs from Symantec. :robotmad:

Re: Norton GUI window flip-MAJOR BUG

Is it even realistic to expect a fix for this before 2013 product line? I have a feeling that it involves a substantial intervention in the code, so I'll endeavour to ask this question.

Re: Norton GUI window flip-MAJOR BUG

for me this has been a long time problem with window 7 and NIS 2011 and I NIS 2012. I pointed this out in the past but no one listened to me...
