Re: Deleting accompanying (raw) files while keeping primary (jpg) files

I would find it usefull to be able to delete in one click all companion raw files from primary jpg with low rating (1&2) for example. Exactly what I intended. I'd be happy to do this in 3 steps: Enable filter as needed Select all (ctrl+A) Action “delete companion files“ (e.g.via context menu)

Re: Deleting accompanying (raw) files while keeping primary (jpg) files

so a "delete without companion" to the contrary - rather a "delete companions" Both actions may make sense depending on the use case and on what people define for themselves as primary vs companion: for me JPG is primary (speedy viewing in XnView) and RAW, XMP etc. are companions. People using RAW ...

Re: Deleting accompanying (raw) files while keeping primary (jpg) files

all is in Settings>File list>companion I think I'm still misunderstood. What I was missing is an option to delete just the companion files for a set of selected files, without also deleting the primary files. As said, I found another solution using an external program which works for me better anyw...

Re: Deleting accompanying (raw) files while keeping primary (jpg) files

do you have tried the 1.00 release by configuring companion files? I did. Used 0.99.7 previously. I noted the various bug fixes in the change log for 1.00, but I don't see how my feature request would be addressed. However, as a workaround I wrote an external program which does the cleanup as descr...

Deleting accompanying (raw) files while keeping primary (jpg) files

I'm shooting JPG+RAW at the same time mostly and use XnView for quick browsing the images. Raw development is done in another tool (darktable), therefore I hide raw files by configuring the raw extension to be handled as accompanying file. I would like to address the following situation: At some poi...

Re: Copy/backup catalog info by folder

I'm getting a bit confused about what problem you are trying to solve. Do you have multiple copies online but only a single backup? I tend to backup entire folders anyway but I don't often duplicate image files. Sorry, I indeed had two different use cases in mind without making it clear: A) Ratings...

Re: Copy/backup catalog info by folder

You can (and I strongly recommend) writing the ratings metadata to the image file (or a sidecar according to your preference). I guess this is a "all or nothing" decision - use XMP inside the image or in a sidecar? Or could I write some XMP info into the image file while having other parts being wr...

Copy/backup catalog info by folder

Is it possible to somehow copy (rather than move) catalog info to another folder (e.g. backup folder on NAS)? I keep backups of my images on another location which is not permanently accessible for XnView (i.e. on a NAS or external hard drive). When moving or copying images there, I would also like ...

https access to forum

Hi,

could https access to the forums, or at least to a dedicated login page be set up, so we don't need to send the login name/password unencrypted?

Thanks, Lars.

Re: 0.86 (and 0.87 beta2): Geohack action disabled and GPS indicator missing

you need to update the catalog, 0.86 doesn't save GPS info into catalog... Oh, ok! Tested: removed one folder with affected images from the catalog, then used beta 2 and opened the same folder - all GPS info available, everything fine in beta 2 :D So for folders where I have other info (rating etc....

Re: 0.86 (and 0.87 beta2): Geohack action disabled and GPS indicator missing

Ok, "rebuild thumbnail" sort of fixes the issue, but only by actually changing the file itself. Therefore I'd consider this a workaround rather than a fix. I'd rather not need to rebuild thumbnails in thousands of images, which is time-consuming in itself and would require me to update any backup as...

Browse to customizable URL with GPS lat/lon

I'd like to have another context menu action next to "show in GeoHack", for which the URL containing GPS lat/lon values can be configured. An option for the lat/lon format would also be useful to support different services. Use Case: I often use the GeoHack with coordinates from an image to go to pe...

Crossfading speed in slideshow

Hi,

I really like the crossfading function for slideshows, but I'd like it to have the transition a bit faster. Any chance to make this configurable? An .ini setting would perfectly suffice :)

Regards, Lars.
