tag

Post by staroflight »

hi,
I might get 100 or so photos together in documents,
then go through them and maybe wish to delete 20 or so

to do this I need to tag them as I look through them then get all tagged together
and delete them all

does xn view have any tag facility ?

thanks for help

Settings relevant to working with tags:
  • View » Tag
    • Show tag box
    • Show all tagged files (Shift+T)
  • Tools » Options... » Thumbnails » Icon info » Tagged file list must be cleared:
    • After an operation
    • After folder change
    • On exit
    • Never
Keyboard shortcuts for tagging/untagging:
  • Browser: Ctrl+T, Insert, Space
  • Viewer: Ctrl+T, Insert
In browse mode, you can also tag an image by clicking on the tag box of a thumbnail with the left mouse button.

"Browser" is how they defined XnView's built-in file manager, if you press Enter or doubleclick picture in "xn view window", you probably will get there. Or select menu File->Browse or press Ctrl+B.
