Hi Pierre,

thank you for replying. Here's what I mean:

In Windows, right click a folder, Browse with XnView (I have not installed XnView MP in Windows to see if you also coded that feature into MP, and if it works in Windows).

In Mac OS, after installing XnView MP, there is no 'Browse with XnView' or 'Browse with XnView MP' when secondary-clicking a folder. Neither can I find a possibility in XnView MP to toggle such feature on.

Mac OS X offers to set up folder actions, with which one can add entries to the contextual menu via secondary (Windows-equivalent "right") click - example see

However, I do not know how to set up a folder action 'Browse with XnView MP', not knowing any parameters of the API.

If you could either enable 'Browse with XnView MP' in Settings/ File Manager Integration, that would be awesome. Or otherwise a manual how to set up such folder action would be great, too.

Hope all is clear now :)

Thank you for XnView and XnView MP,
Lee

wish I could be of more help right now, but all I can do is share some links to forums that I think are useful for posting a how-to request:
