XnView Software

I have "test.png" in my folder. I have another file opened and start "Save as ..." with ..

a) "test.png" and "filetype" is set to PNG
b) "test", and "filetype" is set to PNG

Now I get two different messages (alerts) which says me that file already exists. But messages have small differences in wording and small differences in appearnce.
Bug or Feature?
Windows versus XnView?

I believe these messages come from XnView, Peter.

xnview.exe (English) vs. xnviewde.dll (German):

• String #4024
  • English: “The file <%s> already exists !\n\nDo you want to overwrite it ?”
    German: “Die Datei '%s' existiert bereits.\nWollen Sie die vorhandene Datei überschreiben?”
  String #4403
  • English: “This file exists already, do you want to overwrite it?”
    German: “Diese Datei ist bereits vorhanden. Wollen Sie die Datei überschreiben?”
  String #4436
  • English: “The filename <%s> already exists, do you want to overwrite it?”
    German: “Die Datei <%s> ist bereits vorhanden, wollen Sie die Datei überschreiben?”

What is the value of the SaveAdvDlg entry in the [Start] section of your xnview.ini?

Claude “Clo” Charries (XnView English Help Manual » Option details » [url=http://charries.pagesperso-orange.fr/xnv/eng/options.html#ini_plus]Extra INI-Entries[/url]) wrote:[Start]
SaveAdvDlg=1
Allows a fine-tuning of the previous entry functions above by saving the state of the advice dialogue.
Using it, you may avoid the unwanted “Overwrite” dialogue when saving a changed file only.

• Where is the option []Do not ask overwrite...
• Strange overwrite dialog behavior
• converting/resizing images with the CTRL-U dialog

It was undefined, now I set it to "1" - and have this fragmented message: Peter

I've added this to the list of truncated labels.
