Yes, but I don't get what you mean by full screen. It simply flips to edit view mode


I think it's because of my age. When I said "full-screen," I meant the large editor section within the user interface. I use jAlbum in full-screen mode, so that's the largest section. I just found it strange that the appearance of adding and editing is different. The missing OK and Cancel buttons are a recommendation.

Just ran into an oddball. If my project contains a PDF without a representing image, trying to add a "date view" produces a "red X" thumbnail, and making the album produces an error message like this:
java.io.IOException: AlbumObject /By date/2025/Oct can't be represented as an image
	at se.datadosen.jalbum.AlbumImage.<init>(AlbumImage.java:51)
	at se.datadosen.jalbum.ThemeImageProcessor.processThemeImage(ThemeImageProcessor.java:93)

	at se.datadosen.jalbum.JAlbumFrame$7.run(JAlbumFrame.java:1210)
Same problem with an "alphabetic view." I can sense the underlying problem - objects with only an icon aren't being handled properly in views. They should, of course, be grabbing the generic icon for a PDF, for example.

Ah, more nuanced than that. The error occurs when the "no image" PDF is the only object on one of the album pages created by the view, and the core is trying to create a theme image for that page. If I tell my skin to use the top-level theme image for all pages, there's no problem.

There's also no problem in a normal album (i.e., one without views) when a folder contains only a PDF icon - the theme image is missing, and the skin falls back to using a plain banner.

I'll look into addressing that for the service release. Packaging the upcoming sharp v38 release now (we're at rc 35 by the way now)
