Forcing images to use tabs in single instance of XNView

Post by pqee »

When I dbl click an image from Explorer I get a 2nd copy of XnView with a single tab in it. I can't figure out how to get the 2nd image to open as a new tab in the instance of XnView that's already open. I've tried with the 'Only one view opened' enabled and disabled but the behavior is the same.

Any ideas?


Using v. 1.82.4 on a fresh install of XP Pro.

Wrong option. (I'm not even sure just what that one does, maybe makes it so that you only have 1 tab per instance?)

The option you want is General->Only one instance. Check that box, then images will always open in the currently opened xnview.
