Known limitations and bugs
Power Nailer has several known limitations (so far no known bugs), most of these
limitation are caused by limitation of windows itself or the various
browsers.
- You can't create more than 32767 thumbnails per section (directory) in
one go, this is a Windows 95 limitation which might be solved in
future windows releases, and should not exist in Windows NT (Windows NT
functionability was not tested with Power Nailer).
- Browsers don't accept file names containing certain characters (such as
the "#" character). If anyone knows how to link to files that begin with
the "#" character, let me know.
- The scaling routines were not designed to scale up pictures, this means that
it is not advisable to use pictures with resolutions that are smaller than
the thumbnail size (this might cause a division by zero error).
- You can not have two files of the same name with a different extension
(i.e. "mypic.gif" and "mypic.jpg") in the same picture directory, this
will result in only one thumbnail to be created for both images.
- Power Nailer will not work well when Windows is set to non-standard
font sizes (i.e. 120 dpi large fonts).
