Thanks.

Do you have ZIP addon installed? (See "Info > Plug-Ins information").
No. I've just installed it and it is listed in the Plug-Ins information. But when clicking on the ZIP archive nothing happens (same as before).

Could you send me your zip files?
You can download it here .

Hi,
I am able to ...

Yes, or like:
"1024x800 (1.28)x24"

I think when reading 233x553x24 most people think of something like width x height x depth, which is very close to what it is. I suggest to keep these three values together and add the ratio at the end, not in the middle.

The logic is understood. I accept. Of ...

Yes, or like:

"1024x800 (1.28)x24"

Thanks.

In options > Keyboard > Space, I have selected "Go To Next Picture". As i pressed the space bar, focus moves to the next picture in the forward direction till the last picture is reached. After that pressing space bar has no effect.

Instead, If we replace the text "Go to next picture" with "Go to ...

In the status bar of the browser, I wish to see the width to height ratio (4:3 shown as 1.33).

Presently options window has two buttons OK (apply changes and close window) and CANCEL (close without applying changes).

Request for additional APPLY button ( to apply changes and keep the window open). This will help in seeing the affect of the changes before final acceptance and closing of the ...

I know that this poll is closed, as I was late to find out XnView. :(

Better late than never!

I found out this forum from:

Above link provides a brief comment on the software also. Rather, I have ...

But xnview starts on browser bu default...

Yes, xnview starts on browser by default, as the check box is pre-selected. Actually I was not aware of the availability of the feature to start XnView in basic mode till a few days back.

I could not figure out the need for this basic mode. I felt ...

XnView has a wonderful set of features, but it's layout and other basic issues may need a review.

The default mode of starting is in BASIC mode. This takes about 1 sec on my machine.

By user settings, XnView may be started in the browser mode also. It takes 1 to 3 secs to start in this mode ...

I prefer 'DESCRIPTION', as this is a simpler word than ANNOTATION. As many non-English, non-French, non-German speaking people may be referring to the English version, an easier word is preferable.

Thanks for your quick response.

The data entered through Edit > DESCRIBE is stored in the file descript.ion in the respective folder.

This information is retrievable into the status bar through Tools > Options > browser > Info in status bar as "DESCRIPTION".

The same information is delivered to slide show, web page and Contact ...

So you would like that i merge description & comment dialog box? For non jpeg, the comment will be greyed.

Thanks Pierre, for your considerate response.

Presently, we have in Edit >> Describe, a facility to enter / edit a field by name ...

Thanks Clo for your response and support.

I was wishing that the default skin option may have a meaningful Icon.

Presently, as options for search previous, we have
1) Search topic title and message text
2) Search message text only.

If we have another option to
3) Search topic title only,

it may help to search quicker with fewer finds, at least for well defined key words.
