Re: How to change default folder used for strip (joined images)

user0, makes more sense in the actual export window, where the export button is that leads to saving dialogue.

Re: [request] batch-convert options

If I add a filter, I want it to be applied regardless of the result file size. This option compares: ?end result < original? and keeps original or the end result. Filters 'might' assist in reducing the filesize, but not always (for example original might be low quality already or the conditional re...

Re: [request] batch-convert options

@xnview, the goal is size reduction, so the comparison should be the last automated decision making check for which file to keep - converted&resized&whatever or old. Otherwise you'd just not have the option ticked (default) in the first place.

Warning message about metadata deletion when saving as

The file->format settings->write checkboxes set are set to save data, but when using file->save as it still is showing a warning message (even though info is not deleted).

Re: AVIF settings explanation

:| played with various speeds and chroma numbers.
webp seems to compress better for the same quality number, compared to avif 420.

Re: [request] batch-convert options

@xnview, 2. Compare end-result (after application of conditional filters and after conversion) to original, then it's the same logic:
- keep original if it is still smaller (without saving the converted&resized).
- otherwise keep converted&resized, while deleting original.

Re: [request] batch-convert options

@ xnview , 1. Conflicts with the "delete original" option, as I don't need it to delete the original - if it's smaller than converted, and I don't need it to keep 2 of each images of a downsized image (should work with delete original on, therefore keeping the original number of unique files). 2. Do...

Re: [request] batch-convert options

@xnview, should work regardless of input/output format (like when converting a folder with a bunch of random .png, .jpeg, .webp to 95% .webp) or conditional filters (like resize to 4000 width, if width>4000 ).

Re: How to change default folder used for strip (joined images)

"Save as"
"export"
both are forwarding to previous save location, instead of current folder.
I'd like files to default to source folder when saving with either option.

Inherit EXIF when creating collage

Add an option to image collage maker that would allow picking which image's EXIF to use or use the first one's on the list, instead of wiping it.

Re: Rotation method?

The program isn't transparent with the information about either with smooth option selected or without. So which methods are used?

Re: [request] batch-convert options

@ xnview , 0: add folder (with subfolders) to batch convert. (ideally with a filter list to only select certain filetypes within) 1: encode source file with desired settings 2: compare file sizes of encoded and source 3.1: encoded filesize < source filesize: place source to bin if it's larger and pl...

Rotation method?

What rotation method is it using in viewer and is there a selection setting for it?
It seems that using paint.net with its bicubic setting is better for image rotation.
