Well then why did you make new camera angels? If I accidently double click on the desktop then I have to go to settings again to set the camera angle, if I want other than default

Rawclaw replied on July 03, 2009 12:28 to the update "New VIP Update - BumpTop 1.1 VIP Preview!" in BumpTop:

I select a camera angle and apply, close dialog..
then double click on desktop = camera angle resets to default

Ok this was a nice challenge.. Took me one hour to find the bug and reproduce.
I found two ways of reproducing it

One way

Right click on desktop and make new folder (use default name)
Right click on desktop and make another new folder
Rename this folder to bug_files
Right click on desktop and make a new text document
Rename the document to bug.htm
Select the two folders,(not the htm file) and make a pile
Right click on pile and select Folderize
The next dialog that pops up asks for a name, use default and hit OK
Right click on the new folder and select "expand to pile"
Right click on pile and "break pile"
First dialog says "Break folder pile?" - I hit "move files and break folder"
Next dialog that pops up says "Error moving file or folder - Cannot move file"
Then you get stuck in a Loop

Another way

Right click on desktop and make new folder
Rename the folder to bug_files
Right click on desktop and make a new text document
Rename the document to bug.htm
Select the file and the folder, and make a pile
Right click on pile and select Folderize
The next dialog that pops up asks for a name, use default and hit OK
A new dialog pops up and says "Error moving file or folder - Cannot move file"
Hit ok and the pile gets folderized
Right click on the new folder and select "expand to pile"
Right click on pile and "break pile"
First dialog says "Break folder pile?" - I hit "move files and break folder"
A dialog pops up and says Error moving file or folder - Cannot move file
Then you get stuck in a Loop

Rawclaw replied on June 13, 2009 21:59 to the problem "Not so great breaking piles action" in BumpTop:

Still having this problem..

You start out by making 2 seperate piles from random stuff.
Then you make one single pile out of those
If you break the pile the icons move back to the two different positions of the former piles, but they are not piles anymore...

This is not intuitive behavior

a Windows problem??
You're not helping on this bug report and it don't think you know what is going on here..
Plz go troll somewhere else and let the devs.deal with the issue - Its the second time you give me an useless unreasonably answer.
Thanks anyways

I don't want them both to have same file name, I'd just like to be able to say no to a dialog and see that dialog disappear - so I can continue to work.

Rawclaw reported a problem in BumpTop on June 12, 2009 21:14:

Answer no to "Confirm file replace" after selecting "Break folder pile" = Loop

I did a couple of searches and I couldn't find a report on this bug..

Very detailed steps on how to reproduce the bug:

Right click on desktop, select "more" and make new text document (New Text Document.txt)
Right click on desktop, select "more" and make new folder (New folder)
Open folder and right click in folder to make new text document (New Text Document.txt)
Right click on new folder and select "expand to pile"
Right click on pile and "break pile"
First dialog says "Break folder pile?" - I hit "move files and break folder"
Second dialog "Confirm file replace" - I hit "No" and nothing happens, bumptop forces same action and same dialog appears..
I can't put the dialog in background by clicking on desktop.
To close the loop without force closing bumtop or replacing file, you move the files via explorer and hit yes, the dialog disappears and all is fine.. No file lost and no program crash :)

Id like a little helper that looks at my content on the desktop and helps me organise it. Could be a 3dmodel walking around and moving my icons, sorting them ,straighten them and so on..
This should be a tool rather that a toy
