3753 bug - Favorites's tab for metadatas doesn't work

Saving favorites doesn't work.
When you exit and re-enter the program, your favorites are deleted.

This doesn’t happen to me on Windows.

Are you saying the favorites tab is present but empty, or the tab itself is missing?

Make sure the favorites tab is visible by right-clicking on another tab like Properties and ensuring Favorites has a check mark.

I suppose it’s possible your XnView.ini file is read-only, so changes aren’t written. Make sure that’s not the case. Favorites are written in the [Preview] section of the XnView.ini file.

If you successfully add favorites and they show on the favorites tab, but then if you exit the app and restart the Favorites tab is suddenly empty, then I suggest you post your OS version info so Pierre can investigate.
