For reference:

FYI: On Windows, the contents of the PKZIP-SFX file ( ActivePerl )…

%PROGRAMFILES%\XnViewMP\AddOn\exiftool.exe
… are extracted to…

%TEMP%\par-{username}\cache-exiftool-{version}\
… when you click on the EXIFTool tab in the Preview/Info pane of XnVewMP.

Re: Lossless flip/rotate


Windows Explorer and Windows Photos rotate the 1000x1000 image losslessly, without removing any pixels.
Couldn't XnView do the same, or is such behavior wrong somehow (against jpeg specs, maybe)?

It depends on the JPEG's chroma subsampling :

Rotations where the image is not a multiple of 8 or ...

Re: Recovering accidentally deleted folders and files

Happy Easter 2U2 (-:
I just ran WinfrGUI on an old FAT32-formatted USB stick with 8 GB capacity (5 GB free space) and was surprised how many files it was able to resurrect.
So I'm cautiously optimistic that you'll get your data back.

Re: Recovering accidentally deleted folders and files

I use Microsoft's WinFR (Windows File Recovery). It's a command-line tool, but there's a graphical user interface for it.


Download and install WinfrGUI on your PC.
Connect your USB to your Windows computer.
Launch WinfrGUI and select your USB from the list of available drives.
Initiate the ...

Re: How to find defined colours?

As it turns out, Inkscape does have a Layers and Objects docker, but it's less detailed than CorelDraw's Objects Manager.

Re: How to find defined colours?

I use CorelDraw X6 (2013) for editing vector graphics.
It has an object manager docker I can't do without.
This seems to be missing in Inkscape :-(

Re: How to find defined colours?

If you're working with raster (instead of vector) graphics:
  1. Optimize where_is_red_area.png with PngOptimizer.
  2. Open the result in XnView MP.
  3. Go to ImageEdit colormap… and change all colors except red to white (#ffffff).
  4. Optimize the result with PngOptimizer.
