Hi,

I have tried all three possibilities but I still don't see the EXIF info.

See image below :

I'm only seeing file name, file size, image size and zoom factor. I want to add some exif fields there.

These are my settings.

Settings are only applied to the title bar :

It looks to me like a logical place to place that kind of info. If you can make it just like in the title bar. would be very nice.

That is a feature that would be very welcome indeed.

I currently have a number of EXIF fields on the screen when viewing a picture, but it would be welcome very much to be able to have these in the status bar so they don't interfere with the picture.

Would also be nice to have a "semi full screen" option that still shows a status bar.
Or for an option similar to the "I" option to switch between info in status bar on or off when in full screen mode.

When I'm in one of the cameras manual modes I often take multiple pictures and then check on the computer which ones turned out best. For this it is very effective if in Xnview you are able to quickly see all "relevant" settings (these are the settings you are setting your self in one of the manual modes and change between photos to find the best settings).

So when I use the manual mode on the camear I like to be able to quickly see what settings I used for a picture, but also to quickly see the difference in settings between two or more pictures. So for this It would be great to have in the status bar:

Exposure Mode: <Exposure Mode>
Focal Length: <Focal Length>
F-Number: <F-Number>
ISO Speed Rating: <ISO Value>
Exposure Time: <Exposure Time>
Flash: <Flash>
Metering Mode: <Metering Mode>
Exposure Bias: <Exposure Bias>

Btw I have above EXIF fields on the screen now but do not seem to be able to get below ones on there as well:

White Balance (to see what white balance program was selected)
AI Focus (to see if I shot in manual or auto focus mode)
Lens Type (to see which lens I used)
Long Focal (to see which lens I used)
Short Focal (to see which lens I used)



exposure mode, aperture, shutter speed, ISO, focal length, exposure bias, whitebalance
