Title:
UI hangs on display change (win7)
Status in OpenLP - Worship Presentation Software:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Ver: Win7 Home Premium x64, OpenLP 1.9.7
# Steps to reproduce:
1. Run OpenLP
2. Make a change to display configuration outside of OpenLP
Expected: OpenLP detects change and updates accordingly
Actual: OpenLP cursor changes to busy, and UI hangs (interface is unresponsive)
# Identified three cases:
1. Remove a screen (lose video sync). On my PC this occurs about 2 seconds after the VGA cable is unplugged. At this point all screens temporarily black out.
2. Add a screen.
3. Change display resolution of any screen.
# Symptoms:
* Cursor shows busy indicator when over the OpenLP window.
* Entire OpenLP interface is unresponsive. It will not come to the foreground when activated, whether by clicking on taskbar, or on a visible part of window.
* Rest of PC is fine, only OpenLP interface is unresponsive.
* Task manager does _not_ show any errors such as "Not responding".
* If the removed screen is added back before force close, the display on the screen is the same as before the screen was removed, but application is still unresponsive.
# What happens on close:
* If no dialogs are set to pop up:
- Right click on taskbar icon, select "Close window".
-> OpenLP closes instantly.
* If dialogs are set to pop up (eg unsaved service or exit confirmation)
- Right click on taskbar icon, select "Close window",
- The dialog pops up immediately, and brings entire OpenLP window to foreground, but you cannot interact with any of it
-> No option but to force close via Task Manager
# Analysis:
In each case, the debug log shows that the display change was correctly detected. At least part of the OpenLP core is still running fine because (non-responsive) dialogs pop up, and it closes ok (see debug log) if there's no dialogs. But the UI hangs indefinitely.
# Attached debug logs:
openlp 1.9.7 remove_add_remove_screen.log
- screen removed, wait 15 min, added, then removed again -> force close
openlp 1.9.7 add_screen w exit_confirm.log
- screen added, "Enable application exit confirmation" checked -> force close
openlp 1.9.7 change_res.log
- resolution of second screen changed
