XnView Software

Thanks for the suggestion. Unchecking the "Use embedded thumbnails" option before rebuilding with larger size cached thumbnails does fix the issue of blurry .jpg previews in the XnView browser - thanks

I have tried again the steps described in the link provided to ensure that I did it correctly, however unfortunately the result/issue remains the same - in particular, I tried the fix in the following lines. Perhaps the is not the correct fix for my case?

Please consider showing the tagged / untagged status of an image in the upper right corner of the single image view, adjacent to the rating - similar to the way these two fields are shown in the Browser view.

I've learned recently that the tagged / untagged status is available in the info popup ...

Thanks for the tip. I do see the "X" appear or disappear in the field in lower left corner of the info panel now - thanks.

Will do. Thanks for the reply pointer, I'll check that out and see if I can get it sort3ed out..

hello,

I recently noticed that all of my .jpg file thumbnail previews look blurry, although the corresponding raw files are sharp, and the .jpg looks sharp when if I double click on them and view a single .jpg image at a time. Please see the attached screen snip for an example.

It seems to me that ...

hello,

Is it possible to view the Tagged / Untagged status of a photo while in single image view tab? (by which I mean the view of a single which results from double clicking on an image in the Browse tab / mode).

When viewing a single image, we see the image rating in the top right corner of the ...

Yes, problem is corrected, working as hoped - thanks!

Thank you for the reply, and explanation. I will try using Edit XMP instead as you suggest.

Thank you for the reply.

The issue (in my mind at least) is that the parent category /keyword - which was NOT selected to be applied to the selected image(s), is in fact assigned to the image and written to the file along with the keywords for the categories that were selected.

greetings,

I have created a couple of user defined subcategories under a predefined category, using the XnView MP / Category set pane which appears by default at the bottom of the XnView window. I have noticed that these user defined subcategories don't appear in the Categories tab of the XnView MP ...

hello,

I have created a couple of nested categories under the category of Photographs - for example, Animals and Birds.

When I assign sub-categories (but not the parent category) to image(s) using XnView MP, and then update selected files based on the catalog, the keyword corresponding to the ...

Thanks much for the reply. At the risk of pointing out the obvious, but some form of up to date documentation (wiki, help text, or otherwise) would be very helpful and welcome. I imagine that it might be a challenge with a small team and other efforts may need to take priority at times, but we would ...

Great, thank you for the reply, and update.
