New Project does not clean Disc Layout Editor

[kenmasters1976]

Well, I just noted this and thought I should post about it. As the title says, I burned a disc using the Disc Layout Editor and then selected the New Project option to start a new project and the Disc Layout Editor was kept with the files from the previous project. I don't know if it's a bug or if it's meant to be that way, but it seemed kinda odd to me.

 

I'm using ImgBurn 2.5.0.0 and Windows XP.

 

Oh, I also noted that when using the Disc Layout Editor, the Confirm Volume Label dialog does not appear. I normally wait for it to show to set the volume label even though I know it can be done in the Labels tab in main window.

Within the DLE window, 'New Disc' is (I guess) the same thing as 'New Project'. I can't say that it really occurred to me to make 'New Project' clear the DLE window.

 

The volume label window pops up when you burn, not when you're configuring the layout of the disc.

Yeah, I know that selecting New Disc in the DLE does clean the files. It just seemed kinda weird when I closed the DLE after setting the desired layout, burned the disc, selected New Project and when I opened the DLE again, the files from the previous project were still there. It's not a terrible issue though.

 

I know the Volume Label window pops up when burning. The thing is that it seems it doesn't pop up when I click the burn button if I used the DLE to create the disc layout. I can't tell if this happened before, but I'm pretty sure it happened when I burned the same project where I noted the DLE not being cleaned issue. I'll try to verify this.

It also only pops up when it can actually make a suggestion. There are times where the code simply won't come up with one (and that depends on the files/folders you've added) - but it's the same code being used no matter if you're in Standard or Advanced Build mode.

OK, here´s the thing: I open ImgBurn, switch to advanced input, then I use the DLE to add one single file to the disk and close the DLE to return to the main window; now, when I click the Build button, I expect the Volume Label window to pop up with a suggestion but it doesn't. I can't remember if this used to happen before when I used the DLE or if it just suddenly started. Of course, if I do the same thing using the standard input, the Volume Label window pops up suggesting a label for the disc, so this is why it seems weird to me. I don't know if it's a bug.

Ok, I get ya.

 

Consider both points sorted for the next release.
