XnView Software

but it is a big hassle to have to manually set associations in windows settings. can you fix it to make the xnview association options work in win11, to be more convenient? normally, i want to simply click the "the most used" button option.

It's no more possible


Hi Pierre, I agree with you ...

Question arises here.

Windows 10 file assocaition screen tells you a generic term as "photos" but then how can we change individual extentions for different image types?

Eg: Open jpg files with XnView but open png files with another app. How can this be possible?

Edit: Found out.

The answer is to use XnView MP which has full Unicode support; whether foreign characters display correctly or not in XnView Classic depends on the locale set on the computer used.

Please see this earlier post.


Hi cday,

I already know this setting and have done this setting already. I also ...

Any thoughts about the issue I've mentioned above?

It is present with XnView Classic + Windows 11 environment when displaying non-English filenames within the program. File are opened OK, just displaying (char encoding) is wrong and garbled.

It is a bit confusing.

When you use Resize feature alone, the size in pixels is changing fine. But on the other hand, the original DPI of image remains unchanged which affects how big the image is displayed on screen, that misleads about the real size.

Later, when I change DPI of particular image ...

From what I understand, setting view zoom level to %100 is NOT enough. We also need to set X, Y values of DPI to 100 of the specific image for both to get the real size either on screen (meausured with real ruler) or when printed.

Sorry for bumping old thread but i need help.

I resized my image using XnView resize panel and set to print size to 5x6 cms.

However in %100 (real) zoom mode, when i measure the picture with a real ruler over the screen, i get 7,5x9 cm measure which is not what I want. It's almost %50 bigger when ...

only XnViewMP has unicode support
Is it so much effort to add the support to regular version?
Yes.

For example, unicode is not possible without rewriting all code, text as language files too, ...


Eventhough you may open files with Unicode chars after doing proper regional setting for non ...

Hi, sorry for bumping very old thread, but I had similar problem on Windows 11 (English) when opening files having Turkish chars. I applied the same setting (changed locale setting to Turkish for non-Unicode programs) that was mentioned in my previous post 12 years ago, I did it through Regional ...

Hi guys,
Admitted, i'm using quite old version of XnView, however printing is a feature which has been here for ages. So, i'm suspicous that seems to be a fixed bug in new versions.

Problem: When i set margins for a image before printing, the results aren't the same with what i set. For example; I ...

GUI? I need command-line (automated) conversion, is there documentaion Pierre?

Hi guys,
I can't seem to find a bried command-line documentation either of XnConvert or XnView. I just want to create a batch file (then will integrate to Explorer's context menu) to convert files with desired arguments with single click.

Hi guys,
I updated my ancient XnView version (1.96 and 1.98) to 2.04 and noticed that previewing and selecting multipage TIFF files is a real pain from now on. The problem is, with old XnView, we were able to view multiplage TIFFs by selecting from right preview pane if we just untick "insert all ...
