Grabhand in toolbar

Post by mrwul »

Vainly tried to find a solution as to get a grabhand button in the toolbar.
I want to selectively switch between grabhand and crop, without having to press the RMB all the time.

Maybe the solution is there, I don't know.
Looked under Tools/Options/Toolbar/Append.

Any suggestions ?

TIA

XnView supports one mode, which is "Show information" mode (View > Display colour information), but there are no other modes. Thus, there is no toolbar button available for switching to a "grabhand" mode.

I don't think that pressing right button of the mouse is really cumbersome. But nowadays modes are much in fashion (e.g. Adobe Reader) and perhaps a concept to think about.

Thanks.
I know it is not a big issue.

Reason for asking this is that often applications start out in the grabhand mode (let's take Google Maps, ACDSee, etc)
So you kind of get used to this and need to realise that XnView acts slightly different.

One might consider to introduce
either a separate grabhand button,
or
the default behaviour is grabhand (with leftmouse button, like other apps) where:
Click crop button=gets to crop mode
Unclick crop button=back to default behaviour

Just an idea... :wink:

Good luck with XnView, magnificant software!
