XnView Software

Thanks.

Please try the following: launch Explorer, then select for instance 4 image files (shift select, or ctrl select), hit enter.
In my case, 2 are loaded.

Exit XnView
Then double click 1st, then double click 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc.
In that case, all are loaded into XnView, in separate tabs.

So ...

For some reason I need to make use of my laptop. There are hardly any applications installed on it. Even not XnViewMP or a video player tool.
On my desktop XnView is running they way I want, i.e. I changed settings here and there, but I did it quite a while ago and frankly, i would not know what ...

First of all, I am deeply sorry for not responding earlier.
For one reason or the other, your reply slipped my attention.
(At the time I was facing problems synchronizing Outlook desktop with smartphone, it took many days to solve)

Thanks for the below.
Indeed that is a nice solution.

Oh, BTW, I ...

Possibly clearer dialog text for that option one of the following:

Single - DPI size
Single - Size from DPI
Single - Actual size


Agree. I wish at least "Actual Size" would be added.
For now I know I should use Single DPI, but I guess "Actual Size" would have been clearer right from the ...

Super.

Thank you!

That worked out fine.

I have a small image to be printed: 8.5 x 5.3cm only, but on screen it is much larger.
Probably because of the high DPI.

Vainly searched how to print this using the actual size.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Browser, at the top folder is set, for example: X:\Photos
In the search box some regex term.

It will show the photos according to the regex but only in \Photos

How to have XnViewMP (1.6.4) search thru all the sub folders as well?

Thanks.

I regularly want to add date-time to a photo, or screenshot.
When only a few photos/screenshots, I create in Snagit and then add the date-time manually (add a text box, with the date time).
One by one.

Now I had a series of 40 photos, so I went on to search for tools that could do that.
From one ...

Ah! Right, thanks a lot.

Yes, indeed, it would be nice to configure these default F-keys.
In my case ..., in browser mode, in case of image files, except for PSD, all image files are associated with XnViewMP.
Hence just double click or hit [Enter] does the same as F3: it launches XnViewMP, i.e. I ...

Am trying to assign a function to F3
It is already taken. However, I can't find by what/where.

F3 is not listed in settings > shortcuts.

Any suggestions?

When I hit F3 within XnViewMP the screen flashes, but nothing seems to happen, that is to say, I do not see ...

In case of (for instance) scanned image files, or downloaded image files, I now need to switch form XnViewMP to a Windows Explorer replacement and do a change modified date there (action: F3, enter new date, save)

Just curious to know, would there a way to do this within XnViewMP?

Coincidentally I noticed 2x XnViewMP in the "Program and Features" list.
v1.5.5 and v.1.6.1
also noticed that the date of the XnViewMP.exe (on HDD) differs from the 'installed' version as per Program and Features list.
But the date from properties seems to be correct.

So:
- XnViewMP in Windows ...

It is no problem, just reporting. Likely it has something to do with the Security settings.
R-click desktop icon - Properties - tab Security.
XnViewMP is different from others.
Don't know why, I am not an expert.

Very small thing/tip only...
when selecting run XnViewMP (v1.5.5) it requires elevation.

click [OK] and launch from the desktop - things are okay.

As said, small thing, just reporting.

Sorry to say, I hardly use the browser, to be honest.
I use the viewer: double click a file, either in Opus or in Everything (Voidtools), then go to color corrections, whatever.
No offense meant! The browser is fine, I am sure, but, as said, i hardly use it.
