XnView Software

Well, now I'm confused.

I just downloaded 1.9.2 and saw that at Tools > Settings > Browser > Toolbar, there is a dropdown box giving the user 4 different choices for how the Filelist Toolbar behaves.

Is that new in this latest version? If so, thank you!

Or has that been there all along? If so ...

I completely agree. It happen a lot of time to me.
I vote for a confirmation dialogue box for moving an coping by drag and drop.

+1 from me too.

As of version 1.9.0, the Filelist Toolbar has become two bars: one situated above the file window, and another situated below it, which only appears after adding certain tools.

I thought this was a bug at first , turns out it isn't . Because this latter discussion is located in the Bug reports ...

Having discovered this post from my bug report that wasn't one (thanks user0 for the link), I'm glad to see the question of the Filelist Toolbar under discussion.

I think it would be fair to say that everyone uses the Filelist Toolbar in their own way.

The current bar has some elements that are ...

you have them now below thumbnails view

Ah... I see...

I suppose that change is explained by the post User0 linked to?

I'm very conscious of the fact that there's no way to satisfy everyone, but that means that Filelist toolbar tools are now on ... 2 different toolbars.

The only reason I use ...

XnView: MP 1.9.0 - 64 bit
OS: Windows 64 bit

Updating to version 1.9.0 changed my Filelist Toolbar setup, and making changes at Tools > Settings > Browser > Toolbar does not change the toolbar itself, with the exception of "Favorites" and "Quick search", even after restarting.

To reproduce:
1 ...

100% is simple - it is 1 screen pixel mapped to 1 image pixel.

Print Size - is calculated from the document resolution and the monitor resolution as manually entered in Preferences.

Actual Size - is calculated from the document resolution and the monitor resolution as reported by the ...

Add me as well.

Regardless of who else is using it, "real size" is indeed semantically unclear in this context of looking at images on a screen, and that issue is easily resolved with a simple change to "print size."

Often, users will want to see a group of images all at the same time.

XnView MP already has a "Compare" function that offers tools for comparing images, but it is limited to a maximum of four images at any one time.

The program also has a "Contact Sheet" function, which can be used to group as ...

A HUGE +1 for this.

In all reality, an image viewer should always maintain a margin between the edge of the image and the edge of the window. This is vital for simply correctly viewing the image, without the interference of the fused edges.

Some people nonetheless prefer that the image uses the ...

See XnThusiast's post above.

Session = this particular time using XnView. When one closes the program, it returns to its default behavior.

Hmmm, that might be a bit out of my league...

Thanks in any case for your response, and I'll pop in a link back to the suggestion for good form.

XnView: MP 1.8.3 (but present for some time now) - 64 bit
OS: Windows 10 Home 64-bit

In XnView MP's "Compare" function, users can check the "Info" box to bring up the information as set up at Tools > Settings > View > Info .

At Tools > Settings > View > Info , I have "Rating" included in the ...

I have already expressed this subject as a suggestion for XnView MP.

Like in that link, I'll use "descriptor" here, instead of "label," to avoid confusion with the color label function

The star-based "Rating" function in XNView MP uses the following words to describe (hence "descriptors") what ...

This problem is supposed to be fixed in XnView MP 1.8.3 . Please check and confirm the bug fix here.


Bonsoir Pierre,

Just downloaded 1.8.3 and yesssss! , this appears to be working correctly now, at least for the 16:9 and 3:2 ratios that I tested.

Indeed the ratio search conditions now find ...
