XnView Software

I'm pretty sure this is a new thing.
In the adjust dialog box, the clickable space of the sliders has been narrowed down, we need to click in the very tiny (about 4px high) horizontal line in the middle of the slider. The space immediately under and above that is between the button's bottom and top ...

I was going to post a new thread about the uneven sensitivity of contrast, brightness and saturation since a few versions back but I think it's related to this.
It used to be that tiny incrementals made big changes, especially in saturation, but now virtually nothing happens between -30 and +30 ...

I lost a photo today because of this bug.
I cropped a photo and, because I didn't want to alter the original file, save it under a new file right after I cropped and then I proceded to do further modifications and I used Ctrl S intending to save my copy.
It overwrote the original file.
This is ...

When doing a Save as, after the save, the original file is still opened and the new file is not open. This is counterintuitive and dangerous because then it is likely we overwrite our original picture, thinking we're working on the copy.

This happens even though the "Use output filename after Save ...

In settings General > File operations, with "Save as copy for 'Save' action" activated, doing a Save As still creates a separate copy of the file and the viewer stays with the original file.
Expected behavior would be that the original file is abandonned from the viewer and the viewer stays with the ...

When we do a Save As we expect to save the current work to a new file, that the old file is closed and the editor stays with the new file.
This is standard behavior.
When we do a Save As, it creates a new file but the editor stays with the old file.

So if we keep doing modifications and we want to ...

Two settings that may be relevant:

Tools > Settings > Interface -- Keyboard tab -- Pressing ESC once quits XnViewMP

Tools > Settings > Interface -- Tabs tab -- Closing last tab exits XnView

Thanks, but they're not, what I need is for XnView not to close tabs when I press ESC

Until the latest update, it seems, the window size vs image zoom was behaving the way I wanted it to.
It displayed the image in 100% zoom unless the image didn't fit the window, in which case it decreased the zoom.
Now it seems I can't make it behave this way anymore. I look at the image size ...

Howdy,
The graphic designers in my organisation often produce files which have some color palette that seems to be wrongly interpreted by some software. I have to open it in GIMP and save a new file in order for it to display with the right colors in XnView and Firefox.
Although I know they should ...

When I delete a selection I expect the area to become the background color (white in the settings), not black. How can I put a selection to white?

I have CTRL F4 as the shortcut for closing tabs yet Esc closes the current tab, and closes the app is there's only one tab.
I want Esc to do nothing.

I have this problem!
The shortcut for CLOSE TAB is CTRL F4, yet Esc closes tabs!!!

In case others have had problems with this, I just found a handy workaround: adding file:/// before the path makes it usable in Windows dialogs. At least in Windows 10.

When using the Edit > Copy to clipboard > Filename and path function, the path is copied with / instead of \ which makes the path unusable in Windows. I would often use this feature to quickly get the image file in a "browse" dialog to upload it to a website or insert it in a document, however I ...

It would be nice if we could choose the color that will replace alpha when converting alpha-enabled formats to formats with no transparency (e.g. PNG to JPG). Right now it just makes it all black.
