Strange behavior of disabled online dictionaries

Postby bradm » Sun Nov 06, 2011 3:13 am

There seems to remain a buggy behavior in the current early access 182 build of GoldenDict. Disabled online dictionaries – while the bar is turned off – give unexpected blank results. Please have a look at the pictures.

If the Dictionary bar is ON, everything is OK: there is one single hit for the search item. Please note that the online Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy is disabled in the bar.

However, if the Dictionary bar is turned OFF, the same online encyclopedia – which IS disabled – shows up with no apparent reason in the hit list on the right side, as well as in the main definition window, with only blank space. Several other online dictionaries behave in the same way. Am I missing something? Thanks for your attention.

Best regards.

Choices made via dictionary bar are only effective when said bar is on - otherwise some users could get confused by the fact that some dictionaries are not searched for no apparent reason.
