Navigation bar too big, quick filter too small

Post by Ravanelli »

Hello,

I am using the latest version of XnView MP on a 4k resolution (might be a reason?).

As you can see from the attached screenshot, the navigation bar is way too big while the quick filter is tiny.
I use the quick filter feature a lot, and sometimes part of the text is cut off because the space is just too small.

Is there a way to adjust the size of those bars and move things around? or at least just increase the width of the quick filter?

Thanks.

Thanks.

Are there any plans to let users customize those bars/fields, and be able to move other elements around?

Hello,
Any update on this issue?
Can we at least make those fields 'draggable' or customizable?

For me as an example, I use the quick filter more than the path field because I have most of my images in a single folder tree.

I hope that you would consider adding this feature/option.
Thanks.

Thank you for the suggestion, but I have tried this before (all 4 layouts);
and they all have the same issue (very narrow quick filter field).

Should I look forwards to this? or should I just move on since it cannot be coded?
Thanks
