RC2: Thumbnails & Details ignores Columns selection

Post by ckit »

In XnView, I only have "File Size", "Properties" and "Date" selected in Columns but I just noticed that "Thumbnails & Details" ignores it and includes Comments and Description!

I don't know if columns settings were ever meant to effect Thumbnails&Details. Notice that some information is not really displayed in columns. Hiding comment and description might make it look better though.

Same opinion as marsh. Detail view and Thumbnails & Details are in a way similar, but still different. Perhaps we need separate options for "Details" view and "Thumnails & Details" view. Perhaps in 1.81.

Yes, columns settings are only for details view.

We agree that columns for "Thumbnails & Details" and "Details" are different. I think what might be needed is a setting for "Details" and one setting for "Thumbnails & Details".

But not in 1.80... Postponed.
