strange bug in 1.702

[Marta]

A bit difficult to explain, and a screengrab did not show it, but there are SOME folders in a project that -- when opened in corkboard view, that section shakes.
Imagined a shaky zoom in/zoom out by a bad cameraman and you get the idea
they are folders with graphics.
However I have folders with many more graphics that DO NOT shake

I closed the Beta, opened Scrivener's standard release, looked at those folders. No problem

I closed that, went back to the Beta, same folders continued to shake

HOWEVER when I changed the WIDTH of the corkboard, those folders stabilized. I then could go back to my original width, and they stayed stabilized

will now hum the theme of Twilight Zone

Huh. I can't reproduce this one, and I'm usually affected by most strange bugs.

1.) What kinds of files does it do it with? All text? Lots of nested texts? Research folder with lots of multimedia and pdfs?

2.) Update your video card drivers? Almost sounds like a graphics glitch. Corrupt drivers can do all sorts of strange things.

3.) What corkboard settings are you using? (Corkboard background? Square cards? Pins/no pins?)

Pretty sure this is from a resizing problem that's happening when "cards across" is set to auto. I've gotten the same thing and have already filed a bug for it. Did you have the same setting for the corkboard options from the editor footer?

I don't know what this means
"Did you have the same setting for the corkboard options from the editor footer?"
But I didn't change any settings

BTW: speaking of settings, the new 1.702 beta reset my setting to the original factory defaults-- where I want my backups, the image I use for my corkboard, default font for new files, colors on links, etc.

I changed them all back but thought you should know

Did you uninstall v1.7.0.1 and install v1.7.0.2 afterwards, Marta or you installed v1.7.0.2 over v1.7.0.1?

Sorry, I was unclear. Did you have the "cards across" in corkboard options set to "auto"?

yes, it was set on auto
PS. The project was closed. When I re-opened to check your auto question, folders were fine (no shake)

I saw this shaking behaviour when I had the 'cards set to auto' problem described here.

Yep, it's the same problem. The cards shouldn't be auto-sizing when the cards across is set to auto, and it's making for a number of visual glitches. This should be fixed for the next update.
