XnView Software

Nice job, Pierre. However, you should have said something, I could have helped with the project!

Hey XnTriq....

I checked out AutoCollage, and as you say it is very slick. However, it is useful only if one makes collages, which I don't. Good tip, though.

Here's another I discovered, also from Microsoft "Research." It's called "ICE" for Image Composition Editor, and it is used for stitching ...

Pierre, that "fixed" the problem, thank you. I wonder if "high zoom quality / reduce" should be the default?

Thanks.

I don't know if this qualifies as a "bug," but it may be a situation/condition that you want to investigate.

I got a new PC yesterday and temporarily had Picasa as my default image viewer. This morning when an image displayed, I wanted to look at it in XnView, and so I had the same image displayed ...

XnTriq, where do you find these things?!!! This is extremely cool, very science-fiction sort of stuff. A little beyond my needs at least for the moment, but thanks for the link. It's extremely interesting.

I checked out the various suggestions from above and found that Photoscape, Fotowall and Picasa provide a good range of composition options. There doesn't seem to be any one program that "does it all" (maybe PhotoShop?), but these three cover the bases pretty well. I especially like the cool things ...

My understanding is that the TWAIN interface used by XnView and other imaging programs (to drive and control scanners and the scanning process) does not provide the same level of scanner control as does the scanner manufacturer's program. A scanner mfgr can make a new hardware-based feature, like ...

JohnFredC: I'm familiar with Picasa's various collage-making options, but not with the drag-and-drop capability to which you refer. Perhaps that choice is well hidden? In any case, thanks for the suggestion.

XnTriq, thanks for the additional leads. I'm checking them out.

Thanks, XnTriq. I'll check it out.

Although XnView meets most of my needs for image manipulation, one thing it does not do is allow me to make one large image from multiple smaller ones. "Collage" and "Strip of Images" are great at what they do, but I would like a free-form option, where I can insert and position various images on ...

XnTriq, you may be right about the tool, but the straightening I was referring to is automatic. The method that XnView uses for manually straightening photos is fine (though Google's and Apple's is perhaps a little easier). But what I'm hoping Pierre will want to add is some AUTOMATIC straightening ...

Rene--

I just heard of the feature you describe from a friend with a Mac, and he wasn't sure of the software--something that came with the computer when he bought it. But it does exactly as you say: allows you to scan multiple images (like photos on a page) with one scan, which would normally make ...

Quick, Claude, can we erase these two posts so I don't feel like quite as much of an idiot?!!

Thanks....

I'd like to request that a moderator post instructions, maybe in th "Info & Forum" forum, on how to link to RSS feeds for the XnView Forum. Although I figured out how to do this some time ago, I unsubscribed and now can't remember what I did last time!

I've searched all of the forums, I think, and ...
