0.85b4: Create contact sheet: "Thumbnails" or "Images"

Post by helmut »

XnView: 0.85 beta4

In "Create Contactsheet" dialog there's a panel "Thumbnails". In this "Thumbnails" panel you specify how many images are printed on your contact sheet.

Suggestion:
From my point of view it's not thumbnails on the contact sheet but images or pictures (like in Print dialog). The difference in wording is minimal but I'd find it clearer and more correct if the term "Images" was used.

Other opinions?

Note: This is a suggestion and a bug report. I'd like to clarify this before 0.85 release; this is why I'm posting this in the bug section.

+1.
Indeed, you will not get thumbnails on your sheet, but images.
If you set the layout to 5 x 8, they will look like thumbs.
But you can also set the layout to 1 x 2, then with paper size set to A4, you will not get thumbs, but something more like photo prints.
In that case, images would be the most general wording I think, for both the section header as "Images per page".

Thank you for your feedback, Han. I'd like to wait a bit for some more feedback and opinions. Looks like this won't make it into 0.85.
