Save search results as gallery

[Gary Young]

Hi there!

I'm using XnView for a few weeks now and I'm really impressed. But one thing I need to get solved for myself. Maybe I just searched on the wrong spots, but I wonder if there's a way to save my search results (after performing a search e.g. for IPTC keywords) to a specific folder. This folder should contain thumbnails/links to the desired images I was searching for.

I hoped for a workaround creating a web gallery of the search results but found out that this creates copies of the images instead of links to the images. I'm looking for an option that creates just "virtual" galleries.

Thanks a lot for answers...

Hello,
Maybe you can (Tag all or mouse select all fetched files) then, use the categories functions to create a new category.
But of course, it would be better if in a next XnView version, the search result could be stored directly as a new category (as option) ?

Thanks a lot!
That's exactly what I was searching for. I just didn't find out that it's possible to create own categories by rightclicking on the existing ones.
