XnView Software

When and if you do stop supporting Windows 7, please give a prominent warning in the new-version announcement and elsewhere. Those of us sticking with Win7 might not like it, but finding out the hard way that an upgrade doesn't work on our systems is worse.

Fixed. Thanks.

Currently, adding text via batch convert allows one to set the text height as a percent of the image height. My request is for an option to set the text height as a percent of the image *width*. Or, perhaps, as a percent of the lesser of the height & width.

As a workaround, I check the "large icons" box in settings/interface/toolbar and then edit the Toolbar.ini file and change size=48 to size=18

I'm seeing a jump in icon size after upgrading from 0.98 to 0.98.1
Running Windows 7 pro 64bit with the font size set at 125%

This wouldn't be an issue for me except that vertical screen space is precious, and those extra pixels are valuable.

When I have a folder of very large images (>1MiB, >6000x4000), XnViewMP will often be slow about generating thumbnails. What settings are the best for speeding up thumbnail generation? Could the problem be with the thumbnail cache getting filled, and needing to be regularly deleted?

Add to Text action:
Proportional text size based on the image dimension. This prevents long text (in case of for example Folder name) from going outside the image.

you can choose unit %


As nearly as I can tell "unit %" scales the text based on the image's height . Is this correct?
And if so ...

So is it better if i add a setting like XnView Classic to customize SPACE key? (next file or quick slideshow)


That would be a good solution from my point of view.

What I found confusing is that the SPACE key got changed from a "customizable" key on 0.92 to a "reserved" key 0.93. At first I ...

Some keys can't be changed like del, F2, Space (SPACE is now always used for next file)


Can you give us a list of these reserved keys?
If there aren't too many, it might be useful to list them in the settings/interface/shortcuts tab

For what it's worth, the customization I used in 0.92 and ...

For Windows 7 (and higher) the easiest way is probably to use "Default Programs Editor" http://defaultprogramseditor.com/

Well, I'm using custom icons. The issues seem to be:
1. Icons with a maximum size of 32x32 or 48x48 get pushed to the upper left corner, rather than being centered.
2. In 256x256 icons, black is treated as transparent.

I'm attaching two of my custom icon files. You'll have to associate them with a ...

Returning late - but the problem persists in 0.92 The zip and rtf files show small icons in the upper left corner instead of centered, while the txt icon is big and malformed.

EDIT:
in 0.90 the same folder looks like this:

XnView: MP 0.91 - 64 bit
OS: Windows 7 Pro - 64 bit

Icons for text, pdf, archive, and "other" file types do not display properly in the browser. Sizes and positions vary with icon or file type.

To reproduce:
1. Set view>"view as" to "thumbnails" or "thumbnails + filenames/lables/details"
2. In ...

Yes, fixed.

If I use one of the built-in presets, e.g. 640x480, on an image where height > width, then v0.90 gives a width of 640px and a height > 640px. Which is a bug. With v0.91 beta, the height is 480px and the width is reduced appropriately. Which is no longer a bug.

But if I create and save a custom ...
