hi, i'm new to the forum. i did a quick check and did not find the answer to my problem. if it has already been answered, please point me to it. thanks.
i'm using photoshop (cc 2017).
i save a photoshop image, in psd format, with psd & psb compatibility turned on. i can view the psd image in xnview (v2.39).
i save the image with psd & psb compatibility turned off. i cannot see the psd image. it is blank/white.
i also get a "multiple pages" message.
so, is this a bug in xnview? or something new that has to be coded?
thanks.
info: photoshop -> Edit -> Preferences -> File Handling -> Maximize PSD and PSB File Compatibility.
choices: Always, Never, Ask.
file size is smaller if you don't choose to make it compatible.

Re: Photoshop - Blank
Welcome to the forum, kamchow.
The layers of a PSD file are referred to as “pages” or “frames” in XnView. The shortcuts for Previous/Next frame can be customized in Tools → Options... → Keyboard/Mouse → Keyboard/Mouse → Keyboard.
As of now, XnView MP's support for the PSB format is more advanced as compared to XnView Classic.

Re: Photoshop - Blank
XnTriq - thank you for your reply and suggestion.
i did a quick check with xnviewmp.
i saved an image as psd and psb. both with compatibility turned on and off.
the image was a simple one.
just one layer, 100 x 100 pixels, 72 dpi, filled with black.
xnviewmp browser shows a blank white thumbnail and when opened, shows a blank white square.
i can see the image when compatibility is turned on, in both, the browser and when opened.
it is not a big problem for me but it would be handy to view my psd files in browser mode.

Thanks for providing details of your tests.
I'm sure this will help Pierre (the developer of XnView), and I wouldn't be surprised if this is fixed in the next release of XnView Classic and/or MP.

Re: Photoshop - Blank
pierre, sorry for the late reply. have added the files and settings i used. if you need anything else, please let me know. thanks.
Re: Photoshop - Blank
From PSD specifications
XnView read for 1st frame this composite imageIf maximize compatibility is unchecked then the merged/composite is not created

Guys I find out the bug. You only have to remove new channels except original ones. Cheers
