XnView on small display (netbook)

Post by jupi »

Hi,
users using netbooks with screen resolution 1024x600 have a trouble:
in the Batch processing is not visible button Start and button Back on the bottom of form, so there is no posibility how to run conversion...

Simple solution for this problem should be to merge the buttons and closing-checkbox into one line (and by it and make the form lower)

The workaround is to press <enter> to start conversion. The focus should already be on the unseen Go button.

• Hm… Whether you would use the DLL of your native language instead of English, this could be possible… ;)
- Unfortunately, that wild operation is to remake for each new version, but I guess that it's worth a try…

I have finally solved the problem by modyfiyng exe and dll file in Resource Editor: http://www.wilsonc.demon.co.uk/d10resourceeditor.htm
For english version load xnview.exe, from tree expand Dialog, then item 1014.
For czech version load plugins/xnviewcs.dll and make wanted changes.

Useful as it is, doesn't this approach violate the XnView license?

License.txt says:
The software must not be modified, you may not decompile, disassemble.

Thanks for reply, Pierre :)
I hope that this post is not only about "licence violation", but primary about giving notice, that on the small display can be GUI unusable. (and subsequently my idea how to solve it simple)
PS: thanks for great piece of software!
