Use the batch processing tools in XnView or try NConvert / XnConvert.

NConvert and XnConvert are both more dedicated tools for this kind of work. XnConvert is a standalone version of XnView MP's batch processing tool and NConvert is a command-line tool for converting graphic files.

I changed SelBorderColor and Select previous folder, but they don't seem to make any difference. I changed a couple of other things that did have an effect, so I assume the correct .ini file has been modified. Any ideas anyone? SelBorderColor only takes effect when the thumbnail shadow is enabled i...

Yes. I also tried to disable thumbnail cache while tesing, but it's not working.

I'm having a hard time getting AlphaForThumbnail option to work in XnView 1.98.4.

I tried few different image file types with alpha transparency, but I don't see any difference between thumbnails when I set AlphaForThumbnail=0 or AlphaForThumbnail=1.

The FormatSaveAll option in XnView 1.98.4 works great , but XnView still uses .png extention in the filename when saving the files.

SelBorderColor should change the color of the blue selection frame shown in the garoto's screenshot and, AFAIK, it's color is not actually taken from the Windows color scheme. However this selection frame is not shown for files that cannot display a thumbnail and it's not shown at all if you have di...

Hi, I just installed the latest version of XnView and it seems that I can't customize the frame color for selected items. The color still comes from the current Windows color scheme. In my case, this is very ugly. IMHO, I don't see why this particular color must be the one selected for the Windows ...

IcoFX 2.0.1 is no longer freeware.

Well, I guess you can't really blame the guy for going shareware. It's still a good piece of software, just not worth the price. Especially when you can get the Microangelo toolset cheaper, which I consider to be the best icon / cursor editor there is.

You can set the database location at: Options > Browser > Thumbnails > Cache, on the bottom, there is a Use folder section where you can set custom path for xnview.db file.

Do you have "Use Embedded thumbnail" enabled in the thumbnails options?

If yes, disable it or also select "Create thumbnail from original image if embedded is smaller than thumbnail size"

There's no easy way to do this, but you can achieve this by first batch renaming all the files with progressive numbers (Use '#' as template in batch rename tool) and then use the batch processing tool to add the file name in the image (Use 'Add text' with '<Filename>' parameter). It's not perfect, ...

Thumbs.db files are created by Windows explorer, not by XnView. XnView stores its thumbnails in the XnView.db file.
