XnView Software

This issue seems to be resolved with the 1.82 build I just downloaded. I'm not sure if it's changes from the previous version to this one that fixed it or if it was the simple act of reinstalling. Either way, I'm now moving from viewer to browser at a very nice pace. Thanks!

• You could try to decrease the colour-depth of the display, that could help.
- For instance, if you are using :

Could you try one thing, disable option/Browser/Preview/Use high quality?

I have double-click mapped to switch between browser and viewer. I have also tried using the <enter> key just in case the mouse is a factor, but it does the same thing.

When switching from view mode back to the browser, XnView redraws the browser window very slowly (> 1 sec). I see a fragment of the image I had been viewing where the folder list should be, then it redraws the folder list. Next the toolbars and thumbnails are redrawn. This gets progressively worse ...
