XnView Software

FWIW, Qt 5.10 and up are supposed to have a ton of fixes for HiDPI display and GPU rendering issues, which might be related. XnView is currently on 5.9; now that there's a 5.12 LTS tagged that might be the way to go.

There's now an open source library for integrators: https://github.com/joedrago/avif


Unfortunately, these formats don't support lossless mode, so webp's excellent implemenation will keep being around for that.


That's not true in any way, shape, or form. AV1 lossless fits inside AVIF just fine ...

This has worked for me for years. Under Interface->Keyboard there's a "Pressing ESC once quits XnViewMP" option, do you have that set to Never? Either of the other options should do it.

There's no one-click convert, but you can add Export to the command bar with a right-click->Customize on it. That's 2-3 click, at least.

Version 0.89 is pretty old now. {DPI} definitely defaults to 72 (useless as that number is) for me on 0.92.

SQLite cache datas in memory, so the file is not written on each changes


That's not supposed to be true, unless you turn journaling off. From what I can tell, XnView does indeed turn journaling off (or keep it in-memory), which is likely a miniscule speedup in exchange for the high probability ...

When it comes to reading comics, a dedicated reader like Honeyview is better. XnView is still missing 2-page view, which is critical for books for me. I'm pretty sure Honeyview is faster to flip through, too. For every other use, XnView is better, but this comic books isn't something it does well.

I can definitely confirm, I reported that a few years ago. Any collection of downloaded files will inevitably have FAR more categories than can ever be displayed.

Are there still any HEIF problems? The full HEIF spec was posted to http://standards.iso.org/ittf/PubliclyAvailableStandards/c066067_ISO_IEC_23008-12_2017.zip recently, so any implementation can be compared against it.

FWIW: ImageMagick has an implementation based on libde265 now, another point to ...

I had a copy of the draft standard, and stupidly forgot to save it. It seems to have been completely scrubbed from the web in preparation for the final standard release later this month. That might have helped troubleshoot some issues.

Sorry to bring this up again, but the dark theme is still the same.

Ah, it looks like it only occurs when I Import Clipboard, which is something I use all the time for screenshots, so it does seem to be the same bug. With regular open, it's always available.

I'm using 0.82 beta 3 now with the same result.

When I upgraded from 0.79 to 0.81, the Export... option in the File menu in view/edit mode is now stubbornly always greyed out. No matter what I do, I can't get Export back, and since I used to use it constantly, I miss it terribly. Any idea why or how to fix it?

You can see that the background is light scheme, while everything else is dark scheme (which I use).
