Re: [Request] Font Type and Size for XnView General UI

To those who were trying to understand the steps: just go to

View > Theme > Old Dark

and then close the program and add to file

C:\Users\YOUR-USER-NAME\AppData\Roaming\XnViewMP\style_sheet.qss

QObject
{
font: "Segoe UI";
font-size: 17px;
}


At least this is how this works ...

Stop canceling name change when an item is blocked by another process

If user attempts to change name of file or folder that is being used by some other process then a pop-up window will appear saying

An error occurred during renaming!

and bearing only the OK button. This should not be like so as it is counterproductive- and the more the longer and more ...

Re: Font not big enough

So for now when using 150% in Scale and layouts of Windows the issue with font sizes is to be expected?

All I am trying to do is to get bigger signs in those lines market with yellow

like the
