GUI version doesn't open image on double-click in explorer

Open MrSmite opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

OS: Win 7 x64 Compressonator: 4.2.5185

Issue:

When you set DDS files to open with compressonator and then double-click one, the image does not open. Instead the GUI application opens to the welcome page and you have to then click "open image file" and manually select an image.

Expected:

Since ProcessExplorer indicates the DDS image is being passed to the program as a commandline parameter, it should be opened by the application on startup.

@MrSmite Compressonator file association is not supported on the GUI command line. Will investigate this option to process files using command line prior to opening the GUI interface.

Thanks.

The good news is that when you click the "open image file", it opens to the folder containing the image from the commandline. So this indicates that it is being properly captured by the application. My suggestion would be if there is a parameter containing a path to a DDS, automatically call the same functions used to manually open a file but pass them the path instead.
