Batch Convertion-Set in a "one-button-macro-action"
The Batch Conversion in XnViewMP has lots of good function. It would be lovely/perfect to combine afew standard fuction under "one button macro-action" - instead of marking images and starting batch converter and running thru single options again...

Hi,
If I understood your request, it's automating the batch conversion, I talked about it here.
You can create a button associated with the script.

Hi Franky, thx for reply. Yes that is the idea and you are not the only one... (regarding to your link in your post)
Q.: How do I get the *.XBS as a button into the ToolBar? Couldnt find the answer in your link/post. How did you made that pos.?

Hi
In the Settings/Interface/Toolbar, add --COMMAND-- and assign it an XBS file that you have created in Batch Convert.

Re: Batch Convertion-Set in a "one-button-macro-action"
Hi Franky,
did a setup but it doesn't work
What I've done so far and I add some screenshots - for everyone who follows this idea:
I can add in Settings/Interface/ToolBar/... more than one "--COMMAND--" into (both) ToolBar. In this case it is the ViewMode. Found as well in this window on the lower right "Set comman..." and "Set label.." option.
With "Set command..." I add *.xbs and *.bat saved files out of the "Batch Convert". This is how it looks like in my "foo.bar" (my own ToolBar file):
...
The "Convert"-button in the "Batch Convert"-GUI does the whole job, but the two buttons in the "ToolBar" don't...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Button XN_BAT.bat (the bat-file doesnt hold all options / missing is: iptc, transport file)
nconvert -dpi 260 -autocontrast -autolevels -o jpeg -q 90
...so does not work as intent!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Button XBS_TEST.xbs (the xbs-file keeps all the options)
...could work as intent but I cat run it...
Where I am wrong with _cmd_=XBS_TEST;D:/XBS_TEST.xbs;D:/XBS_TEST.xbs

Hi,
The button opens the batch convert with the defined options but you have to start the conversion manually.

Re: Batch Convertion-Set in a "one-button-macro-action"
Hi Franky, aaaah, ok...
Yes, if I add the --COMMAND-- in the ToolBar/Browser Mode... it actully opens the "Batch Convert" menu ... and yes, then I can press the "Batch Convert" button to run the script / convertion...
Thx for that and sorry for my missunderstandings...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
My idea was to add "--COMMAND--" in the "ToolBar/View Mode:
click on image (images) and using the simplest function (dpi, auto color, auto contrast, standard iptc, send by ftp ... ) in a *.xbs
... and this I cant get it run...
Q.: Could it work? Any hint?

Re: Batch Convertion-Set in a "one-button-macro-action"
I just put the same button on the View mode and it does not work, nothing happens.
On the other hand we can open the batch convert with Ctrl + U but without the defined parameters

Re: Batch Convertion-Set in a "one-button-macro-action"
No, not realy the same:
The idea was in "viewer mode" to execute only a "standard *XBS" - with fixed : optimize, mark iptc, send ftp - that is hold in this "standard-xbs"
So there would be no need to reopen the "Batch Converter" - like it does in the "browser mode"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The "browser mode" version of the --COMMAND-- is good as well - never checked this out (thx)!
This might gives you the chance to change some options... if all the other options stays as intented (have to check this "plan b")
Slán!

Re: Batch Convertion-Set in a "one-button-macro-action"

It would be nice if it was an option
