XnView Software

Thank you! I just wasn't seeing that.

Hi there. When I am zoomed in on an image, I often need to scroll to see portions of the image that are no longer on the screen. The only way I have found to do this by actually grabbing the two scroll bars at the right and bottom edges of the window. Is there another way? I have looked in Shortcuts ...

Thank you. I'd been looking for something under under general settings, not in the window the image opens in. Found it!

Hi. Is it possible to set it so that when I double click an image and it opens for editing and viewing, it opens at a zoom level that fits the whole thing in the panel, rather than opening at full size?

I've looked for this setting but can't find anything.

Thank you!

In the Folders panel and the Category Filters panel, and possibly other panels as well, when an item in the list is already selected, and you click on it again, the item enters rename mode, and you need to manually escape out of that. I know that this is how clicking on selected items works in ...

Thanks for the reply! When I posted, I wasn't that concerned about the size of the thumb.db file so much as wanting to understand just how xnview used it. And 4 Gb didn't seem TOO excessive. But it is now almost 9 Gb, and things look different!

I also would like to know if xnview makes use of the ...

I would like to understand where xnview stores and reads its thumbnails from. My previous experience with this kind of software is ThumbsPlus, and it seems to keep thumbnail image data in its database, which is based on MS access. The "Thumb.db" file appears to be where it Xn keeps its thumbnail ...

When using the keyboard to open a menu, e.g., Alt+F, the program does not respond to any keypresses other than arrow keys, and does not let you use letter keys to navigate the menu. This is in all menus. It seems like a bug, but I can't tell. I see no other mention of this when I do a search.

I ...

I also find myself wanting to navigate the folder tree with the "back" and "forward" mouse buttons. Very intuitive, and expected, especially since Xn is in so many ways similar to Explorer, where those keys work. At least as an optional binding. Thank you for considering!

I kind of agree. It doesn't quite feel like a "search," and I don't think I'd want to go through that process for routine searches. But again, I'm still exploring the program and seeing what it has to offer.

Hi thanks for the reply. When I posted, I had not yet discovered the "Categories Filter" method of searching by category/keyword, if that's the one you mean. That is indeed much faster!

It still seems as though the Ctrl+F method of searching, even just for filenames, is much slower than expected ...

Hi. Newbie to XnView here. It seems very promising!

I have a folder structure with about 15,000 files.
I created a category in XnView and assigned it to all the files in one of the subfolders, about 75 files total, the only files to be given a category.
After that, I switched to the top level ...
