Re: Quality of thumbnail pictures
Hi
Over the years I evaluated several programs like XnView for viewing my pictures. Every program has its own features but XnView has the most configurable GUI.
One thing I realized in nearly all programms (XnView too). If I compare the quality of the pictures in the thumbnail view to ACDSee then I must say the thumbnails in ACDSee are much more clearlier and sharper.
Can anybody confirm my statement?
Unfortunately I can't add a picture for illustration here.
If I had an wish for XnView then I would have a better quality for the thumbnail picture.
Regards Torsten

Indeed they use a sharpen on the thumbnails.
In XnView the thumbnails are a little bit washy in any thumbnail size.
The first step in my workflow (after importing the photos fom my camera) is to sort out the bad ones. (e.g. the really unsharpen ones) In ACDSee the thumbnail view is enought for taking a first sort. In XnView I can't do this because the quality of thumbnails is quite different from the real ones.
(This for an explanation why I asked for a better sharpenes of the thumbnails)
Re: Quality of thumbnail pictures
An option to set the thumbnail sharpening amount was added in XnView v2.32 (2015-03-16).
