Image Print size in cm

Post by Arturas »

It need to print the image Print size in cm on the paper (Print size in centimeters, or millimeters) . Or to show the image Print size in cm on created the Contact Sheet.
How to do it? Now we can see Print size in cm in the XnView Browser. And we can get a Print size on paper in inch only.

Where? How? I can't find it.

Use inch for print size (instead of cm)

This work in browser only. But it doesn't work in the others sheets.

Or it is impossible to do this suggestion!!!

Sorry, currently you can add info to show/print width & height in pixels or inch, you would like to be able to use cm, right?

Yes, exactly. I'd like to show/print image size cm.

I can do now:
Create Contact Sheet / Insert / Image / Width (inch) & Height (inch)

Or:
Print / Caption / Insert / Image / Width (inch) & Height (inch)

I need to do:
Create Contact Sheet / Insert / Image / Width (cm) & Height (cm)

:-)

Well, I cant see where you've added those cm
take a look at this, for example:
Image
what units do we have on that field? how should i know if its px or in or cm?
and what if i need(and i do need!) cm's in that box? i need to resize a bunch of photos to exact cm's! and there's no such an option

ok, if you mean this "print size":
Image
than it is still in pixels!

and this one you''ve already had in cm's:
Image
so, what was the new improvement?

The settings in Tools » Options... » View » View » Display units have an effect on the values in the status bar when you open an image and make a selection.

Let's not forget about Use inch for print size (instead of cm) in Tools » Options... » Browser » File List » Misc. » Details view.

Ah, finaly
Why didnt you tell that the changes appeaar only when one MAKES SELECTION?
Now i can see whats new ; )
Let's not forget about Use inch for print size (instead of cm) in Tools » Options... » Browser » File List » Misc. » Details view.
And i still can't see where it applies. If i choose "View as - Thumbs & Details" it still uses pixels! This setting is in the "Browser/File list" sections, under "Details view" part of the tab. So i expect this setting have to affect on the File List in the File Browser with Details View set up. But nothing changes. ;/
