XnView Software

XnViewMP 1.9.8
Windows11 (25H2), display resolution 3840x2160, dpi scale 150%

Viewer - transparency grid
transparency grid does not scale with the image, which:
- can be distracting and
- prevents the grid from functioning as a guide

Suggestion

• add 'Apply zoom' checkbox (enabled by default) as child of 'Use transparency grid' setting in Settings>View
  so Transparency grid could scale with image zoom (like in Aseprite)

Example

• Aseprite (10x10 grid scales w image zoom)
