Re: Default toolbar icons demopage
Thank you for the replies and the creation of the 'new tab' icon. Thanks also for creation of 'thumbs only' icon which is what I also commonly use in my file-manager app Xyplorer
16x and 24x sizes as with most or/ all your other existing icons.
...You see currently to do this in Xnview-win I have to use the hotkey shift+pageUp/pageDown to display the animated GIF as 'frames' but If I wanted to display it as a 'movie' again I have to refresh the display by using hotkey ctrl+r . That is why an icon button is required which would basically do the exact same switching (all-in-one) that is already there in Xnview but just at the press of a single button. I apologize if I gave you confusion earlier in explaining all this.
Summary: 'Multipage' icon on toolbar = fast switching between 'movie mode' and 'frames mode' of animated GIF.
I also originally suggested that the icon, if created, be positioned in the middle of the current 'next/prev page' icons, I had the Firefox 'next/prev webpage' icon;
BTW: Forget what my original mentioning of Icon files, since Icon support within this feature would require more work... But yes, this feature would work with Animated GIF's/apng/jif's first!

No no, I will explain again; For animated GIF's the proposed icon would allow fast switching between 'movie mode' (default) and 'frames mode' - this is what I always meant and wanted to do as a button.mezich wrote: As I see, by default xnView show animated GIF's as movie and ICO as separated frames. Sorry buy I don't understand profit of your suggestion. Why I need to turn off 'movie mode' for GIF and turn on 'autoplay' for ICO ?

Do you agree? (forget the book metaphor)

Re: Default toolbar icons demopage
If you agreed on the 'Multipage' request then here's an idea for another metaphor for the design of that icon;

Remember as I've explained the functionality that the 'Multipage' button would do is already there with viewing animated GIF's by method of shift+pageUp/pageDown with ctrl+r hotkeys. Please support +1

Re: Default toolbar icons demopage
MP also needs:
"First file", "Last file" (These should be real easy)
"Refresh" (Ditto)
"JPEG lossless transformations" (Borrow from XnView 1.9x)
"Hide titlebar"

Re: Default toolbar icons demopage
Hi again,
I made a topic suggesting to Pierre and other readers that the 'copy pathname' in XnView MP should be renamed/replaced and better improved here; http://newsgroup.xnview.com/viewtopic.php?f=60&t=21664
I also suggested an icon could later be created for it. I took the liberty of creating this mock-up icon here:

(hehe
I made this 24x24 all by myself lol using XYplorer's 'p' icon and this picture)
If you could recreate this icon for 'copy path', that would be great.
I got the inspiration from XYplorer's 'copy path icon' toolbar icon which is the same 'P' logo icon metaphor. P = path.
So a 16x16 and 24x24 for this icon, if Pierre agrees.

Re: Default toolbar icons demopage
For me 'copy path' should looks like current 'copy' with two papers, but one paper in front with tree folders on it.budz45 wrote:I got the inspiration from XYplorer's 'copy path icon' toolbar icon which is the same 'P' logo icon metaphor. P = path.
Second variant is front paper is black with 'c:\>' on it.

Yes! This variant sounds the nicestmezich wrote: Second variant is front paper is black with 'c:\>' on it.

EDIT:
In fact I know why you would opt for black (with 'c:\>' on it) because the black represents DOS right? What do you think on making that black rather as a blue with rgb color 61,116,207 - or you wanna stick to black?
btw second thing, where you stand on that 'Multipage' icon? Pierre did agreed
