- When pressing the Cancel button on the "Find" window, the previous find parameters in the status bar weren't cleared.
- When clearing the group ("lasso") selection, if the photo with the focus was part of that group, its background color would not change.

- The colors settings window did not respond to using keyboard shortcuts for actions such as copying and pasting.

New in FRSPhotoViewer 2.0.0 (Jun 13, 2018)
- Fixed:
- Sometimes entries were not removed when automatically removing obsolete photo files from a photo album.
- When external changes were made to the folder and photos were removed, the text above the Photos grid wasn't updated.
- Sorting by image height was using the full-size images' heights, but it needed to use the thumbnails' heights.
- When sorting by image height, rotating the thumbnail image didn't move it to its proper location.
- Changed:
- Moved photo description text to a dedicated edit field below the Photos grid, to make editing of large texts easier.
- Keyboard shortcut F6 now adds that dedicated edit field to its rotation (i.e. switching between the components of the main window).
- Added more horizontal margin between the photos in the Photos grid, so that it is easier to see which one is selected.
- The menu command "Photo | Rotate" is now "Photo | Rotate Left" (also changed the look of the matching toolbar button).
- The menu command "Photo | Modify Photo" was moved to "Edit | Modify Photo".
- Replaced "Photo | Display Format..." with "Photo | Main Window Display Columns | ..." to simplify display settings.
- The above change also changes the maximum number of photos per row from 5 to 10.
- Removed "Welcome to FRSPhotoViewer" announcement at start-up, because it caused problems in some installations.
- Therefore, removed the "Settings | Play Welcome Message at Start-up" menu command.
- The Documentation Center window's texts were updated.
- The look of the "About FRSPhotoViewer" window.
- Added:
- The keyboard shortcut F7, which moves the focus to the next entry in the Photos grid.
- The keyboard shortcut Shift+F7, which moves the focus to the previous entry in the Photos grid.
- "OVR" in the status bar, to indicate whether or not over-typing is active for the "Description" field.
- The menu command "Photo | Rotate Right" (and matching toolbar button).
- The Documentation Center window can now be scrolled via these keys: up/down arrow, Page-Up/Down, Home, End.
